Minolta XL-225 (from Ebay)

old film found inside a camera (evident by the dust in film)

telecined on my wall during daytime with a hand-held Sony mini-still camera resting on a box, that has movie capability

projected via Bell & Howell dual 8 projector

this is fun !

ps- need to watch twice to download/buffer and play smoothly-shut off sound to nix projector noise

Did you actually shoot the old film or did you just process it already shot?

Either way it looks lovely. K40?

I shot the film. yes, I believe it was K40

next time I'll have to clean out the cart slot ! It fuzzied up the footage

Nice, sounds like your having the same experiences as me right now (shooting first rolls, finding old film stocks), although the first camera I just got was given to me by my Dad. The film that was left in this camera was also K40, but it was half shot - the footage turned out to be me as a baby!

I haven't gotten any film developed from the Canon cameras yet- I shot a few rolls with 514 XL-S and 1014 XL-S. Hopefully they will turn out even better.
