    Hey friend, love how you cut this film together with lots of fun angles. Just a small thing I noticed that should be corrected in the video is when shooting at 18fps you get 3m20sec runtime vs the 2min30sec at 24fps from a single cart. Keep on shootin' film!

      Thanks! But not if you haven't exposed all the pictures yet, right? For example, with Super 8, you can simply take out the film halfway, replace it, and then put it back in later. I don't think it's as easy with photos, is it?:)

      @@80white you are right, you can change film in a camera only if you have already rewinded all the film inside its can, otherwise it will all expose and go to waste; the only exception being the high-end medium format modular cameras (like Hasselblads, mamiya, bronica, kiev) where you can have as many magazines as you want already loaded and as long as you put its darkslide on they are light sealed and so you can change film mid roll

I have seen some Super 8 how to guides saying no sounds will be captured - does this just depend on the camera model? Thanks!

    Good to see some one promoting super 8. At 18 frames per second the cartridge last for around 3.5 minutes. Also not all cameras detect the film speed properly. Later cameras had only one or mostly two film speed settings designed for the two film types available in the day. Earlier cameras were able to detect the slot length in the cartridge and hence the proper film speed. Another issue was that the film of the day was artificial light ballance for colour and an amber filter was in place for daylight shooting and switched out for artificial light shooting. Again some cameras detected this from the cartridge and removed the filter for daylight film use but some did not. You seem to have an up market Canon camera that can deal with these issues and that gave very stable exposed images on the film but again a lot of the cheaper cameras didn't. Just a bit of info for you. I liked your video and if it encouraged more use of super 8 that's great.

    I've always thought super 8 cameras looked really cool and obviously have that romantic factor. But $40 for 2.5 minutes of low resolution footage is not worth it.
    -Alright. After seeing several footage of 8mm, I must admit it has a special quality. Sure it has its imperfections and it is expensive but, if you are able to youll end up great memories.

  • @jinchoung
    @jinchoung 11 місяців тому +1

    as someone who grew up shooting super 8 and doing cable release stop motion with it, i think the only real value of shooting it nowadays is to give the impression of something in the past. so it might be cool for some shots in a period film. other than that, the picture area is just soooo small and the picture quality legitimately terrible AND it's even more expensive to shoot and process today than when i was doing it. all around - not worth it. nowadays, i really enjoy having images IN FOCUS for heaven's sake.

    • @80white

      Super 8, in my view, is a very distinctive format. It's not really better or worse than other formats. It all depends on what you wanna say and the vibe you're going for. Some moments, you might just want to capture in this style. Not perfect, somewhat blurry and dreamy.
