8 mm ST 822

The ST822 NEW LINE Series is a two plate, 8mm film format full frame viewing, controlling and editing film table.
The Super 8 and Normal 8mm film formats do have their own track with viewing monitor.
Unique is the sound replay of the COMMAG (stripe) track.
S8 has two audio tracks (main and balance track) and can be mixed to mono.
Normal 8mm has one audio track.
Interesting is the XLR audio output for external recording.
Monitoring the sound can be done by the high quality loudspeakers which will be switched off when using a headphone.

Included is the well known Steenbeck multipurpose processor counter, counting time and length
at the same time is possible for each film format.
There is a extra display showing the exact running speed (fps) of the film table.
Small and large 8mm spools can be used, for S8 there are adaptors.
Sync speeds are 18 and 24 fps (switchable).
The varia speed can be used to select 16 f.p.s. for 8mm or any other speed.
The maximum wind speed is approx 100 fps.
It has a film rewinder with variable speed for comfort and save rewinding back the film on the spool.
This ST822 is an ideal partner for film archives where comfortably and save 8mm handling is very important.

Interesting. If they are anything like their 16mm cousins you only want to put workprints through that - not your original material.

Why, Carl? Are they still utilizing polygon prisms for frame blending? I believe they now have CCD camera gate options for "live" view.
