I've done this before at events with Super 8, also done a music video on super 8. Put a gopro ontop of the camera that records both audio and video. Then in post you can align the digital video with the digitized film and use the sound track.
That's a great idea!! Thanks for sharing your technique. I thought about setting the audio recorder somewhere and recording sound, but it was going to be impossible to find the matching video. Digital video helps to find the matching images. Simple yet effective idea. It would've been cool to have some clips with audio, even if they were short shots like the ones I filmed. Thanks!!
You are correct, my friend Carlos filmed using a C-16 and a Super 8 camera. The Scoopic is a great camera, especially for this kind of stuff. Thanks for watching!
Looks fantastic! How would you say the scoopic m's lens sharpness is vs the og scoopic and other 16mm camera you've shot with like the k3 or bolex or npr? And was this scanned at the negative space? Thank you!
Thanks! The Scoopics in general are known because of their good quality lenses. I have seen some footage filmed with the original Scoopic gray, and it looks amazing. The lens of the Scoopic M is supposed to be even a little better. Unfortunately, I was not able to fully demonstrate that here, but looking at the images that are properly focused, I think the quality is great. They are sharp, and the lens has great control over lens flare. You can see how I pointed the camera towards the light several times, and that didn't wash the image out. The Scoopics were created as cameras for news or documentaries. They can be used to film whatever you want, but the ergonomics of the camera are "superior" in that regard. The K3 and the Bolex are not exactly comfortable when it comes to filming "gun and run" and the NPR is a great camera that can be used for documentary or fiction, but it's heavy. They all are good cameras, but for run-and-gun stuff, I would choose a Scoopic, an ACL, a CP-16R, or an NPR over other cameras any day. Basically, all the cameras are a box with a lens. If the lens and the film are good, you get good, sharp, and stable images in focus. After that, some cameras are more suited for a specific job than others; that's it. The film was processed and scanned by The Negative Space, yes. They did a great job as usual.

Aparte de la calidad de las imágenes, lo que más me ha sorprendido es lo estable de las tomas, sin usar trípode ni software. ¡Gran trabajo!
¡Muchas gracias! Han sido muchos años tratando de mantener la cámara fija, creo que eso ha ayudado. Saludos.
Wow I just shot my first roll on my newly acquired Scoopic the other day. Fingers crossed it comes out great. So dope to see pop up on my feed
That's awesome! The scoopics are built like tanks. I'm sure your footage is going to look great.
Hey! I see a Eumig C-16! I like those cameras. I don’t have a Scoopic but always wanted to try one. Your footage looks great!
