I have one in chicago in the us.
I don't want to sell it.
I'd consider renting it out.

Re: Magazine Cameras

Its not that complicated to load a 8mm magazine camera with film. I think it goes to b wind. The film path is similar to how a double 8mm camera normally loads. Just use a darkroom.

eumig p8 b wind?

I recently acquired a eumig p8 phonomatic projector and the take up reel motion and the rewind are going in a top direction, almost like a b wind.
Is this how this projector operates?

Misaligned film transfer

I have a super 8 sound film print of a travel film. I DO NOT have the original. The print has an error where is was duped in a misaligned gate or film. On playback, I cant get the framer to show an entire picture or frame, it will show 3/4 on one part and at the bottom the reaming top half. Is there...

Re: Music video - shooting with super 8

glad is this finally being solved.
why would you need to cut the audio on a picture edit anyway?
the picture would be shot, audio syncing on a non live music video isnt necessary, just use audio as a reference point.
on the final edit after the picture is cut, the full audio track would be laid down.

Re: how to know what speed you are shooting at on arri or r1

The arriflex s or st and beaulieu r16 have rheostats so the film speed is set on those.
the r16 has a 25/25 switch.

movie camera fps check

Anyone know of a device to check fps or shutter speed on a movie camera, without shooting a roll first.
I've read about the slr's shooting a crt monitor, but with lcd there arent too many left.

Re: Sound striped 16mm film

I've been trying to find some 16mm mag striped film to test the projector but it seems there isnt a lot or some people say sound movies and dont know weather it is optical (more likely) or mag stripe.
