Post by **setori** » Sun Apr 11, 2004 11:30 am

I got a very nice little P2, just about 300g. and very little. I thought have this little jewel in my bag fot every time but : WHERE can I get some single 8 stocks ? And what about the price ? I thought it was very expensive, so that my little fujica is sleeping in a cornerÃ¢â‚¬Â¦

Also, has anyone needed to adjust their projectors gate at all to allow for the thinner base as one of my cheesier Eumigs tended to let it slop about a bit.

I have quite a few reels of single 8 films from the early eighties, the colours are still the same as they were 20 odd years ago!

Not had any problems with the films through any of my projectors, Eumig, Elmo, Bauer.

Speak of the devil, and here's one now:

ibenedeti is bidding on it. He always bids and gets these cameras. I think he is some sort of rich collector. The sort of people who must have some pride in having hundreds of Fujicas lying around.

I noticed this ibenedeti bidder at occasions. I expect he is buying for a shop or something. Maybe he is reading along here?

If you want the camera the trick would be to be bid more

And use a sniper method. He is a early bidder...
I outbid him once on some Nikon gear. Not too high so his bids are not extreme.

Any one know?

Film can be ordered from Retro in Japan, with processing included.

You can get them in eBay too. There is one guy who sell them quite often in eBay importing them from Japan.
