This is the article I mentioned. http://eandt.theiet.org/magazine/2015/12/celluloid-comeback.cfm I actually read it in the paper magazine but it looks the same. On the topic films and 'ks'. Living where I do in the north of England I have regular access to to the National Media Museum in Bradford. T...

I missed this one having been away for a while. This morning though I was reading an article in a professional engineering magazine on the topic of digital versus film. Along with the better appearance of a filmed original there are evidently a few technical reasons for using film. On is that 35mm i...

It is a while since I processed a movie film but I still regularly process camera films. As far as I remember I dried the cine film outside on the washing line! I know what you mean about film dirt. You wash it for ages, hang it out ot dry and then you find all sorts on it. I suspect there is an ele...

Definitely PHART.

Mind you, Picasso et al made a few bob from phart.

Reading this post I went back and checked my one and only upload to Dailymotion: link below (tent raising and lowering, speeded up) http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x12uiz7_pitching-a-queshua-tent_travel It is just a video off a digital tape camcorder so is not HD. Compared with YouTube It certainly...

thank you for your reply. I would love to see some of your work. All made by me. Subjects all of personal interest. No claims in respect of anything for these movies. Only egotistic bit is uploading them to YouTube Amateur movies home transferred by hi-8 camcorder. No artisitic or any other claims ...

They all looked terrible to me. The emporer has no clothes on.

I have always been a great believer in old tech + new tech. I too use analogue cameras, I have quite a collection. Anyhow what got me going again is the ease of scanning the negatives. I was definitely not a fan of enlarging, especially spotting which is a doddle on even a basic photo programme. I e...

Other than the well know companies I do not know if anyone else has fancied having a go. Anyhow here are some offerings from Ilford for 50'/100' rolls of varying width.

Bolex if i remember. Hi-art it aint!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't this stuff the same as Tri-X but rated at 200asa. It is while since I used it but i just developed it to a negative and reversed after videoing it!

I just used a basic developer, probably Paterson or Ilford. Anyhow it worked. Bit grainy though.

The link on my signature has some ideas from and old book on the topic.

Remember: Nothing is forever. :ymsigh: Anyone carrying a flag for analogue video? ;) Anyone carrying a flag for tape? ;;) I actually have a nice Canon digital tape camcorder. While 576 is not quite as good as 720 on our domestic TV there is very little difference. I am thinking of using this Canon a...
