Re: Digital Bolex
So how does the digital Bolex differ from any other video camera in the same price range?

Re: Ferrania hope to start film manufacture in 2014
Back in 1966 , I used Ferrania 8mm film from my local drug store. The film was unimpressive in color and grain, but I can attest that it still plays well with no color fading.

Re: Your Agfa 200D results
Of course, there would of been a period of time when both formats existed in silent cartridges as the ELA stock was gradually sold off. Some silent super 8 cameras had to have the Type A filter manually set, so I think Kodak marketed type G for all the people who forgot to set this filter, since Typ...

Re: Your Agfa 200D results
I dug up an old 1978 catalog from Solar, one of the largest movie film suppliers at the time. Type G was the only Super 8 SILENT 160 film available. But oddly, not available in sound cartridges, ELA was the only 160 Super 8 SOUND film available. At the time I shot only silent. Two different 160 emul...

Roger, I congratulate you on bringing an affordable 8mm scanner to market.
May I ask , does this unit come with a return satisfaction guarantee or not?

Re: Your Agfa 200D results
I remember the original kodak 160 super 8 was ELA (I think). This was beautiful film with reasonable fine grain. Later they replaced with type G 160 around 1975 , this was grainy and was big step down for 160 film. What was Kodak thinking?

Re: 1958 8mm Film Saga
I remember reading about 5 years ago, of someone who bought an old ancient film can on Ebay for approx. $5., I believe in the UK. It turned out, it contained an early lost Charlie Chaplin movie, apparently the only print still in existence, I believe he sold it for 1.3 million. I hope the home movie...

Re: Has anyone tested Retro-8 from MovieStuff yet?
Tscan.... then send a dvd or blue ray dub to Roger so he can use as samplers.
Again, I would never consider purchase of this unit unless I could see a dvd on wide screen panel.
