Cool!

Do you ship to the UK? Is that included? Do you accept payment in sterling - how much would it be?

Heya all, Following the posts about cheap K40 on the net, does anyone know where the other Super 8 stocks might be available cheap, either over the web or at a shop (in London)????? The only place I know of at the moment is the widescreen centre, but I don't want to buy a load only to find it's chea...

Heya all, I'm looking for a DAT recorder - preferably secondhand - maximum budget 1,000 US dollars (circa 610 UK pounds or 860 Euros). I'm going to be using it with my crystal synched cameras to record sound on location (so it would have to be portable). I've seen DAT recorders for cheaper, but what...

Heya,

That's exactly the effect I was looking for: blurring. Does anyone have any experience (intentional or unintentional) of heightening this effect. Obviously, fast movement helps and a low fps...anything else

Heya, Don't know how relevant this is to a thread that goes mostly over my head, but here goes. On the Smashing Pumpkins music video DVD (which also features quite a lot of Super 8) there's a video for the song "Thirty-Three" which was shot by using a really fast 35mm stills camera (I thin...

Heya, Thanks for your replies everyone. I found some more info on http://jl-site.com/super8/s8VideoTap.html I'm keen to experiment, but don't want to waste a load of money on something that won't actually work. Assuming one got hold of camera that worked, how would someone who is not an engineer fix...

Heya, "i was using sync sound nizo 6080s,with a video tap and transmitter,so the director could view at a distance. the tap covers the viewfinder and you frame off,on board mini lcd monitor." Alan, I'm really interested - how did you achieve this set up, and how much did it cost?? Has anyo...

Yes, I think it must be urban legend. Michael Nyberg site refers to a Chinon - “the one with the 230 degree shutter and f1.1 lens” – which I can’t seem to locate. City-net.com says (wrongly) that the Elmo 1012s xl has a 230 degree shutter as well as the “Super 311”. Kolumbus.fi (camera list) says “s...

...And which cameras have smaller shutters - how low do they go? The 801 macro has a 75 degree shutter when you put it on reduced shutter.

Heya,

Which cameras have a 230 degree shutter (or larger)?

I don’t have a background in photography, and have only ever used the internal light meter, so go easy one me; but what exactly is the difference between incidence and reflective light readings? If I am experimenting with the grey card (to discover exactly how much difference the prism and the lens ...

Read the Ilford manual of photography again and am now even more confused! Apparently the effective aperture varies according to the focal length of the zoom lens. The 'true' aperture can be found with the formula: (marked f-stop x focal length setting) / the longest possible focal length But this g...

Sorry, do have a log-in, was just having problems with my AOL browser! I have a Nizo 801 macro and am very keen to shoot using some of Super8 sound's higher speed films. I have worked out the shutter size of my camera using the formulas provided on Michael Nyberg's site, but the Nizo manual still ad...
