Shimano rear would require a jtek ShiftMate adapter, which runs about
$35.

Any current Campy mech would work, probably better than your 8-speed
Record.
 
Hello. I want to replace my old Campagnolo rear derailleur (record, designed
for 8 speed). Actual setup is Campagnolo Chorus cassette 9 spd and
Campagnolo ergo shifter (9spd). Wheels are Mavic Syrium Elite.

alternatives: Chorus for 9-10 speed (expensive)
or
Shimano Dura-Ace RD-7800

Is Shimano compatible with my actual setup ?

Thanks!!

Nope and many Campag RDers would wortk fine..like a Centaur(2006) or
Veloce, all aluminum and on par with DA. Difference between
Record/Chorus/2007 Centaur and those below are materials. more ti and
carbon..is all. Even a Campag 10s RD will work just fine w/o any
moduification.

I'd be interested in buying your 8sp Campy rear derailleur if it is in
good mechanical condition.
