I've never done business with them, and don't plan to. From the web page they have, I got the message that they were snobs and would be rude when delt with. The poor service gets me, though. I guess they don't care about the customer, and I guess many customers think they are the only game in town. ...

I'm switching to DSL in less than 10 days. Modem all set up, and ethernet cable ran, just waiting for the service to be turned on.

OK, Now I know what you're saying. Yea, you can do that. may have to try it sometime. Have a Vidimagic video projector with Betacam built in, but no tape. That's strange because I have used a Betacam casssette in my Sanyo VTC-5000 Betamax machine. I'm not saying the betamax machine can playback mate...

Are you telling me I can't get betamax tapes anymore? I've been waiting for the Godfather to come out in that format in, like, forever. :wink: Sony officially pulled the plug on Betamax in 1997, when the last tapes were produced. The Godfather was released on Betamax in 1984. However I believe you ...

From the feedback, looks like these folks are flaking out. Wouldn't do business with them.

BTW: It is the wrong forum to talk about this, as it has nothing to do with Super8.

I've done this before a long time ago early 90's. I did my shot in the dark using K-40. Came out real well. I plan to do the same this year.

Tons of grain for you? I have shot this film,but haven't processed it. I've seen posts about this stock and how fine it is. Am I in for a big surprise once I do process it, though it won't be anytime soon?

Thanks guys! I plan to get into 16mm after the new year. I've looked uu both cameras and will start saving for the Canon Scoopic. The Krasnogorsk-3 maybe a good alt. to the Canon. No, I'm not going to spend $5.000 on Zeiss glass or lense, as the money isn't there or a fine lense is not needed for my...

How to get to 16mm?

I've got to say that this film making thing has bit me hard, and now I would like to take it to the next level. I love Super 8 film, and what it can do is just plain cool. I would like to try 16 mm soon, but don't know any sources for this kind of camera/film or knowledge on how to work it. All I ne...
