Fuji still uses a polyester base for Fujichrome. The base ...

>What size is the tripod "hole" under the Krasnogorsk 3? 1/4" or 3/8" or what?

The tripod socket is a 3/8" size. There are simple adapter inserts you can buy from a photoshop to convert it to 1/4".

Obviously the cost of film and equipment and the size of the equipment is the deciding factor in whether you shoot Super 8/8mm or 16mm.

If 9.5 mm film was as commonly available as super 8 and 16mm I think 16mm would be less of an issue.

In regard to the "look" between K40 and 50D negative, it is hard to fairly compare the two films because they don't have many similarities other that they are both similar in speed.

There is a difference in the grain structure between the two films but more importantly the color pallet is very ...

Good luck Paul!

It will be interesting to see what comes from all of these ideas. I would love to see 200 foot rolls of film available in Kodachrome!

What is the normal shutter angles on the other non-XL Beaulieu cameras like the 4008, 6008, etc? (What I mean by "normal" is their widest opening?)

Just wondering.

Yes, The EPA. . . or is it the "KGB" would put the smack-dab on my butt. Maybe that's why Yale stopped processing it. Dwaynes is a great lab but I love the idea of driving to the lab then mailing my film.

The first consumer super 8 cameras (and one of the few) to offer 230 degree shutters was the Kodak XL-33 and XL-55 cameras. There were a couple of other models from Kodak, I believe the XL-320 but those cameras all looked the same with the "Binocular" style body. The Ektasound cameras also had 230 ...

I would think it would be in Kodak's best interest to make super8 Kodachrome processing much more widely available with these new machines which would help increase film sales if more people knew there were rapid processing services available.

I live in the LA area and a few years ago Yale film ...
