Filmshooting

anyone have a manual for this projector (or a similar B+H autoload projector) they can scan and email me? thanks in advance

ahhh. gotta love my student discount then

.14/ft

yep - i am about 99% sure those are the prices for both S8 and 16mm - (but now you have me wondering, so i will double check on that tomorrow)

however i will say that those are the rates they give me as a student, not sure if thats better than normal everyday pricing - might be the same.

anyone used these guys for telecine? they have been great to me with developing and they offer telecine for .14/ft for super 8 and 16mm reversal. just wondering of anyone has any opinions on the quality of their work.

good luck! - and allow me to offer a piece of advice:

with the ridiculously low cost of domain names and hosting these days, you should (hopefully soon) invest in a domain name (US$8.95/year) and hosting(US$50/year or even much less). i say this as having a .com will add credibility to your ...

yes - you are right. which is why for purposes of a simple cost analysis i was referring to the so-called standards that different stocks are shot at. if you want to shoot 3 frames per second on super 8 then ill be willing to bet it will be ever cheaper than my math indicates above. but thats ...

my figures (excluding shipping and taxes):

super-8 tri-x reversal 50' from Kodak= $10.59, with 30% student discount = $7.41
processing at CineLab in Fall River, MA = $10.00

total for Super 8 B+W reversal= $17.51

16mm 100' Tri-X reversal 7266 from Kodak=$20.59, with 30% student discount= $14.41 ...

i think we should all worry a lot less about semantics and worry lot more about content.

call it what you want, a shitty video is no different than a shitty film.

emailed! thanks so much!!!

me = your new best friend.

strictly experimental

trying to find an manual for my new S8 camera i just got from ebay - in great condition but i need a manual! (in english)

i see that the manual is on the apparently no longer functioning FTP server from this site - is there any way to get it?

i'll be your best friend. honest.

what i would want (and some of this may even exist for all i know - i'm new to S8 ) :

-3200 ASA B&W reversal filmstock for S8

-super-low end S8 camera - i mean something i can get for under US$50 brand new - think the Holga of S8

-new S8 projector with true variable speed for transfers - under US ...

sorry, but there is no way in hell i would ever consider spending €124 on something that is as unnecessary as a glasscreen - maybe you did not quite understand that i want to do this on a small budget. also that projector is not a continuously variable speed unit (according to the specs i ...

hi all - first post, but i have been reading the forum a lot over the past week or so - lots of great insight and information here.

i am just getting into S8 (recently got a Bauer Royal 8E Makro off ebay), and i will need to eventually transfer my footage to MiniDV for later editing in Final Cut ...
