Developed at the same time as the Sound Scoopic 100, the Sound Scoopic 200 supported the use of film 200 feet long, giving it a much longer operation time for gathering news footage. Aside from the increased size of the camera base due to the increase in the size of the film reel, this camera was identical to the Sound Scoopic 100 developed at the same time.
