Hi "Tscan"

The cost of manufacturing our camera and the low production volumes (we only build 50 at a time) means that we will never be able to make them cheaper unless we started manufacturing batches of 500 or 1000 pieces each time.

The electronics inside our S8 camera is about 600€ in ...

Hi Doug,

We are not planning to develop 16mm cameras anymore, it was previously on our roadmap however we think that this market is already served with existing cameras so we choose to invest in 35/65mm platforms which can also be seen from our webpage: http://www.logmar.dk/career/ - this is ...

Hi André,

If the beta program is still running the users are not supposed to report, for good or for worse, to others than Logmar or Pro8mm isn't it? And lending out one's camera to facilitate such reports seems even worse.

We do not prohibit our users rights to free speech. All we ask is ...

Hi All,

I love love love the IDEA of the Logmar but jeez. Their own PR seemed to imply I could just screw in my existing Bolex lenses as-is -- like you can screw in a pentax lens to a pentax mount -- but no, Pro8 has to calibrate the camera with each (?) lens, and that's gonna cost on top of the ...

Let's lock and sync three Logmar shutters and shoot 3 strip Technicolor. Subtractive color space with associated filters. Panchromatic b/w film slit for Super 8. Then process and introduce "dyes" digitally.

The Logmar camera features a 8pin DIN Connector on its back that is used for external ...

Hi All,

We have now opened up for pre-ordering via our beta-camera-program.

You can find all the details on our website at www.logmar.dk

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the silence! it's been pure thunder in our office the last couple of weeks :)

Allow me to comment on the availability!

Hmmm.
Only 20 cameras at the starting price of 3500, and then it's 5000. And only Canada and US get that opportunity?
I guess even if you were in Canada/US ...

Hi Guys & Gals,

I was wondering if there's anyone in here joining the "International Film Börse" in Diedesheim this coming weekend?

We'll be showing up with the production model of the Logmar S-8 camera so if you want to catch a glimpse of it swing by ...

Hi Kjell,

I wanted to comment on this thread on the forum,


Anyway, a 60m magazine (120m is way too big), gives 10 minutes of continues running time at 24 fps. and having this is worth it’s money. Unfortunately the Logmar camera has not been designed for this, but with it’s film ...

Hi there!

This morning I received some awesome footage from Friedemann, who has been out filming with our original prototype camera. I think it's worth sharing even though the camera used, is not the final production model which we are still waiting for our subcontractors to deliver parts for ...

Hi All,

We would like to take the opportunity to wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy and a new year!
Also we would like to thank you all for the support, ideas and comments that has helped us move forward in our endeavor to build the most versatile super-8 camera.

What's the current status ...

Hi "Kontrabass"

Let me provide a few inputs to your post :)
As a film user, I will support this new design of super 8 camera anyway. I am so happy to see that there are still young people are interesting to developing film equipment.
However, I don't think this camera will be succeed in the ...

Hi Mark,

Lasse,

Has your team potentially conducted testing as per the camera noise levels? The onboard digital audio recorder has great potential for double system sound recording with a simple clap board recorded/filmed at the start of a sequence. I suspect even an iPhone originated timecode ...

I may have missed it but has anyone mentioned price yet?

They are "targeting a pricetag of 2.500€ euro including 25% Danish value added tax - for companies purchasing inside the european union with a valid tax number that equates to 2.000€ euro. For sales outside the european union ...

Hi Carl,

I'd be keen to know if there could be an SDK made available for the camera, ie. for writing up third party software for the camera. Being both a filmmaker and a software developer (amongst other things) I can imagine all sorts of useful data overlays I'd love to write up for the digital ...
