Hi I live in Perth,and my main interest now is telecine which occupies most of my retirement time......Cheers Geronimouse

Does anyone know of an editing programme that does all of these things?.........

a/Remove middle sections in video for editing

b/Enhance edit colour problems

c/Add transitions,music,titles


We are able to do all the above but have to use umpteen different programmes to achieve a ...

Suggest you try Camera Electronics,Perth, Western Aus.They carry refrig. stocks of film :lol:

Check out the latest DPReview newsletter quoting the UK "Independant "Newspaper.Personally I'm a little cynical on this one !!!

Kentbulza......having difficulties with Ebay.Need to order Fuji splicing tape.Please email.....Geronimouse. Apologies for being off topic!! :lol:

At the moment I have 3 splicers #1 is a Fujica single 8 roll type, #2 is an
Agfa F8s automatic which I cannot get the correct Agfa tapes for,#3 is a Wurker S8 which does not seem to suit the Hama dry tapes . None of these units with the the lack of adhesive power due to age is doing a good enough ...

I am lead to believe this unit can process to DVD tapes that are 8mm conversions, has anyone any experience/advice to offer?As it is pretty new on the market I can only find one or two "reviews" so far. I feel it could help us in our embryo telecine setup
Thanx Gero :D

Has anyone any info on a "Starmax Reflex Zoom"cinecam? A friend rang me today and asked if I could find what it's worth. As I'd never heard of it I thought someone out there might cast some light on it! Apparently it has an F1.8 40mm lens I'll get more details in a few days when I see it in the ...

Thanks Herb!
That gives me a good idea what to look for.
Regards Geronimouse! :lol:

Thanks Tim,
I did what you suggested and there a definate improvement but I intend to advertise locally in the hope of getting another dual 8 editor with a clearer picture. Any suggestions would be welcome!

I have a Hanimex E400 dual editor. The bulb packed up so I replaced with the required 6v 10w one.Now Ican only get a faint pic outline which is useless for editing.Is there a special type of reflective unit needed? Hanimex here ( West Australia) don't seem to know too much about 8mm!
Cheers ...

I have just confidently ordered a Cinemate-PAL from MovieStuff USA which requires me to use a Mini DV Vidcam with a min optical zoom 12x and a fixable shutter 1/50. Roger has a Panasonic that qualifies with obviously US model numbers and Icannot track it down. Here in OZ Panasonic do not market ...

Thanx Mattias!
My head is spinning at 29.334fps after reading that!
Looks like geriatry has caught up with me at last!
Geronimouse :oops:

Please forgive this question but I am having a "senior's moment" and I can't remember around 30 years ago when carting my Canon 814 s8 around what speed I filmed at. It

must have been 24fps!! Or was it????
Cheers Geronimouse!

1/60th is there -- you just have to turn off electronic SteadyShot. When SteadyShot is enabled the default shutter speed is 1/100 (presumably to give the camera enough processing time to shift the image around). If you turn SteadyShot off, it will default back to 1/60th.



Hi "Guest" thank you ...
