EWA S8B rewinder

Post by Film-0-Matic »

Hi Folks

Just wondering if someone has a rewinder for sale or trade.

Image

Or can recommend me a camera that can rewind for double exposure.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Pat

It's supposed to be mechanically impossible due to the cart's technical design. You probably won't be able to rewind more than 4 seconds.

Mr. Nyberg has do-it-yourself instructions here

and I have several (EWA, Craven, Penncrest) but can't say I've tried them...PM me and we can discuss a deal if you want one :)

I forgot I had that on my website...it has been a while...it's a shame we (meaning me) get so spoiled on NLE that I don't even think about backwinding...having said that, recently transferred some very neat footage in regular 8 that had been exposed twice...the look was incredible and I am sure much better done since it originated on film and was not done in NLE...call it chemistry vs binary code...chemistry wins hands down...except on lavalife :lol:

Here is on on EBAY. It seems to rewind 12 1/2 seconds of film.
