You don't "record" with a cine camera but film. If its a cine 16mm cine camera the questions are clear:
Unless the camera is obviously defective given that you are unfamiliar with the technology its probably OK. Most 16mm gear is extremely robust. In the UK the greatest probability to brand is one of 1) Bolex 2) Bell and Howell 3) Arri (Arnold and Richter).
In the UK there are good repair guys.. But which one I'd suggest really depends upon the brand and model.
Bolex H16
Arri 16ST
Bell and Howell 70DR Filmo
Beaulieu R16
The above 4 are probably the most popular 16mm cameras to be found in the hands of amateurs and film students in the UK..
