    So appreciated. My father shot with this cam for all our home movies. One really had to understand the exposure triangle to use this correctly.

    Well since that exposure reference is just a paper card that slides out, and seemed to be used on many cameras. Why not print out a modern reference card to the corresponding film and send them with the film

      That would be an arduous task, considering the variations of film stock as well as cameras.

    The FPP website states: "Note that the 16mm Magazine is the property of FPP." I find that amusing since it clearly states on the magazine that it is property of Kodak.

    So when I return the black cartridge, the cartridge fee is credited towards the developing and scanning of the film?
    Also, how would this work if I wanted to immediately reorder new film when returning the cartridge?
    Thanks!
    Jason
    PS: The Cine Royal was about a $150 - $175 video camera when new. It was a pretty high-end video camera, immediately below the K100 (and K100 Turret) and the Cine Kodak Special (and Special II).

    Is that a overlay you’re using in the test footage or is this how all the images turn out with the film edges?

    Just ordered a Royal, and already have the cartridge with Kodachrome type A ( for photoflood light it says )
    Can you process this film as black & white….. will it turn out at all, or should I just keep it for a souvenir? It expired in Feb 1960…..
    Thanks as always for the great services you offer for us film nerds!! 🤪

    How do you properly calculate the correct exposure on the light meter app? It only gives me shutter speeds for each value, is there a fixed shutter speed on this camera?

    • @FilmPhotographyProject
      @FilmPhotographyProject  3 роки тому

      Yes, fixed shutter speed. At 16 frames per second, shutter speed is 1/30th sec.

    Hi Michael, I recently unboxed this camera, which was my grandfather and have no idea if it works. It has the magazine but no roles of film. I am a filmmaker by proffesion but not at all familiar with film. Do you offer consultations with people to help them buy film and test their cameras?

      Happy to assist via email - Michael@FilmPhotoigraphyProject.com / Note regarding vintage 16mm magazines - in the green window it will read EXP if the roll has been exposed / Magazines found in cameras are almost always Kodachrome film. Processing for Kodachrome film ended in 2010. Google Film Rescue to get old film developed as BW / FPP sells newly loaded 16mm (and 8mm) magazines at the FPP On-Line Store.

    I have one that I inherited from my father. It seems to be in decent shape but when I flip the shutter button it sounds like it’s spinning way faster than yours. Probably just an heirloom.
    Great video! Thanks for the info.

    I have been spending a lot of time trying to find out how to get one of these apart given mine feels like it is gummed up and needs a good D&C. I can find blurry videos and photos of certain parts of the process, but not the sections I am stuck on (specifically, getting the winder handle off to pull the mechanism out.) Does anyone have any resources on repair of these vintage cameras?

    • @movieman95
      @movieman95 3 роки тому

      Put the crank into the winding position and turn it counterclockwise with a little bit of force. The center nut should loosen and the handle will come off.

    So great to know there is an option to shoot with my Cine-Kodak Royal 16mm camera Michael! It doesn't seem to turn over...so not sure if it's stuck in need of repair or useless. It came with an exposed roll and one pristine roll of Kodachrome II. Good to know there's no one processing that anymore. To Fix or Find another one?

    why do people always show the sprocket hole its kind of distracting be nice to see the film without.
    Awesome channel keep it going.

      We scan and include everything including the sprocket area because many vintage cameras shoot picture in this area. It's up to each movie maker to crop as they see fit. - Mike

    65 bucks for 50 feet. That's very expensive. A 100 foot roll from kodak is like 50 bucks. So this is a very expensive way to shoot 16mm.
