Is pro8mm still on the naughty list with most?

I had a bad experience with them back in the 90's and haven't used them since. Have they improved their film stock and service?

Reg 8 film stock?

Anyone else besides Chambless selling regular 8 film stock for old Brownie movie cameras?

I am in preproduction on a short film about James Dean and I want to shoot some footage on my old Brownie. I'm also shooting on super8, but I want to give the old Brownie a whirl.

Thanks

Looks nice but I am going to go back to shooting film.

I've shot two features on 24p (one on the DVX) and even though it was cheap during production, the post production cost are rising.

To get past the "film festival and "straight-to-DVD world, there has to be a 35mm print made and that's where ...
