Oh thanks, I found it

COPAL Sekonic 390D HL (Neckermann), Sekonic CP77 und baugleiche Typen
Motorriemen
Best.-Nr. 8066 - (15.00 EUR netto) 17.85 EUR brutto

And now just imagine I paid about 1.70 EUR for the projector, and the belt costs ten times as much

After almost a year of absence...

Hi!

Back in Sweden on holidays I found two Copal projectors - a firm I've never heard of before. I was surprised to see the robust and thorough construction and first thought it was an Eumig or something like that.

Yes, that's clear to me, I meant real Double 8.

Yes, it is perfectly possible to punch normal single perf (1R) 16mm into Double 8mm film. Is it a simple matter? Well depends if you have a 1R to Double 8 punching machine. These are very rare and terribly expensive. But they exist. Edward Nowil in the U.K. offers a perforating service. In reality ...

Dave,

You're right, but I haven't found the time to look it up yet. As far as I remember I never had a camera with this additional 200 feet slot, only the small ones. So as it's just for fun, what if I said I'd buy 5 or 10 of the 50 feet carts, how much would they be?

You're right, and I realized what he meant. But I didn't know resources are so limited already

Here's one short question that came up the other day when I discussed the Kodak S8 announcement with a friend:

Would there be a chance to simply punch additional holes into 16 mm material to make it become Double 8? After all, it must have started this way decades ago... Or is it impossible due to ...

Thanks a lot for your answers, guys :)

@jpolzfuss: Yes I know it's been a long time, but I thought that someone like Kahl had dared to set up sound cartridges with the material those guys have been selling all the time since. It would involve pre-striping the film, however, and of course having ...

Hi all,

does anyone offer S8 cassettes with audio tapes already glued on in the special cartridges for sound cameras?

It's a bit of a shame I can't use the sound part of my Nizos etc. anymore...

Rolf

Good link - thanks a lot!

Rolf

This could be one reason: the lamps going old. I'll try to get a new one and test. Does someone know a good source in Germany?

But I really would like to know if there isn't an alternative. After all, the same lamp technology is used for still projectors. Wasn't there anyone who looked for a ...

Good ideas - I will check this.

However, the films are not THAT old, maybe about 15 - 20 years, and the Standard 8 ones are K 25 - this material shouldn't change too much. Parts of the S 8 film we watched were Agfa, and they show the spreckles which were discussed elsewhere and seem to be erasable ...

Well, I'm half scared :? and half I know that this doesn't happen... Maybe our view on things has changed with upcoming flatscreen technologies?

Let me explain:

After having some encouraging threads over the summer holidays here in this forum, I walked down to the cellar last weekend and picked up ...

And this is a good one! Our son who is in the music field (drummer, studio work) could help me with it:


the timecode wav files are available for download. from the website of serato scratch.
just download the timecode image, and record it onto the sound stripe.



This sounds really easy. The ...

Thanks for all your ideas and most interesting links. Read a lot, learned a lot :)

Although I think Gebuhr has the right idea with its line of devices, the idea to play back from a CD seems a bit outdated to me. There should be a way to play directly from a netbook or notebook computer. The player ...
