sorry for taking so long to reply but i don't believe u can use a jobo tank to process s8. the options are: making a tank yourself buying one (i much prefer the lomo s8 tanks than anything else) using a bucket or something similar doing one is not dificult but unless u design some form of rewind tan...

while i haven't had the chance to use the 16mm version of this film, i've developed heaps of the 35mm still stock and there is no major difference on the process. i used the same times as the kodak t-max and they turn out beautiful. one thing though, you need to use a red filter and shoot outdoors w...

Hi All, I have a KEM 16/35 editing table and after moving to a new place a plug on the back (that was to emulate a foot pedal) went missing and the table refuses to run. if anyone have a similar table, I would really appreciate if you could open the connector and send a pucture of its guts. I think ...

Hi all, just sharing 2 interesting articles about s8 from the beginning of the year (in portuguese): http://veja.abril.com.br/noticia/celebridades/super-8-capacidade-reinvencao-sobrevida http://veja.abril.com.br/noticia/celebridades/ideia-cabeca-super-8-maos the cool thing is that both articles were...

S8 comrades,

unbelievable. Now I can see that the idea that s8 can hold large resolutions is true. I am dumping my 35mm!

Film submissions are now opned to the brazilian S8 film festival. This year, they are also accepting single take movies (the director sends an undeveloped cartridge). There is no fee (even for the Single Take category). Also, if you (the director) decide to come to the festival, the organising commi...

waiting now to get the belt for trying to record sound.

Hi Rolf, i just bought a sound projector and the machine to glue the strip on the film. My final plan is to run the projector using a step motor and sync the sound from the computer to the film by controlling the film advance with more precision. But my projects are running very slow now (kid, job e...

Not sure if the old belt is there... just won the bidding

But even if not, I'll do the measurements when it arrives. Thanks for the tip!

Hi All, just bought a porst mt2 sound s8 projector with a broken belt to do the magnetic sound recordings for my future 'releases'. Did not have much success in finding suppliers for new belts... Anyone has any idea if i can still find belts for the projector? Many thanks! PS: btw, does anyone know ...

it may be my imagination but i also thought so (that it got finer)

do you think it would be possible to adapt a recording head of an old sound camera to a motorised editor? thanks!

Hi Again,

back on the s8 sound topic, what kind of recorder should i have to record the sound? i know some projectors have rec options but i'd love to have an editor to be able to record the sound. Anyone know types and possibly sources to find them? Cheers
