@@FilmPhotographyProject *sigh* When new Ektachrome was originally introduced, John Schwind sold it in Regular8 for 18 Dollars per roll for a few weeks, but I was too late. He soon caught up to your prices.
Why does the film become so pixelated upon uploading it to youtube? It seems like most of the super 8 footage has this problem. Is there a way to limit/avoid this pixelation?
How did you turn the negative 8mm film negative into positive? did you scan negative and transform into positive in software or you developed the film as positive ?
I've been trying to get my hands on some of your regular 8 but it always ends up being sold out in seconds it feels like! It looks beautiful though, I would love to know when you plan on putting up another restock so I can try my luck again!
Not til late Spring. We do have it available as a Film-Develop-Scan Bundle - filmphotographystore.com/collections/movie-film/products/double-8-film-bundle-film-develop-scan-25-ft
I would suggest going inside in a darkish room to flip the film over. They do suggest loading and flipping the film in subdued light so you don’t get as much light flaring and stuff.
I took a lot of film back in the day and it seems more expensive now proportionally but I don’t know exactly. At the time there was no alternative though. I have tons of Kodachrome and the quality is still as good as it was, no changes to the color at all.
Something I miss. Family outings. We didn't have many. Parents especially my mothers family did and often outside down in TX usually. when she was younger. Like the film, don't see this often.. Not much grain , I'm on a couple super 8's. But I'd rather try the 8mm film
normal 8 really is worth it because the pressure plate inside normal 8mm cameras keep the image SOOO much more steady than Super 8 because those film cassettes don't have that extra pressure plate. Some years ago i saw metal pressure plates you could add to a super 8 cartridge before shooting and removing it again after shooting but i don't think it actually did much.
If your lens has fungus though, think of how much sharper this might be on a camera with interchangeable lens capability and a nice clean, bright lens. This scan along with an awesome camera/lens, would be amazing. I still like this footage a lot though. Nice work...
Hey, I got a question. I came across some Plus-x double perf 16mm negative with the code 7206, but I cant seem to find any information on it at all, except that is was loaded into 50ft 16mm magazines at some point commonly for gun cameras. Do you have any info on what a possible iso/asa rating the film originally had and possibly a rerated iso to minimize fogging? Thanks for any help!
If this was on Ebay I bought one of those lots and shot a roll. I think I exposed around f8, but it could have used a bit more exposure. Plus-X would be around 125ASA and magazine camera typically was 16 fps which equates to about 1/30th sec. Hope this helps. I have the film scan by the FPP posted to my channel.
Unreal that this is normal 8 :O Looks almost like 16mm at a jerkier lower framerate. It definitely doesn't look like Super 8 at all because the image is way too steady :P
@@Asset1968 I was honestly confused too but it's processed in ECN-2 so I assume its still vision3 film. Though I can't really explain why it's rated at 40iso instead of 50. Vision3 has a really good exposure latitude so there's no harm rating it at 50 anyway
the latter end. Shoot practice first. Yep as I told Michael. Shooting red negative film with a red filter not the smartest thing in the world. Would love to bump into that again. At least I got 1 photo out of it. (there were more 2-3 out of 23 or so frames or lack there of. ) but nothing as good that you could recognize anything.
It would be wonderful to see a stock like Ektachrome repurposed for use in regular 8mm cameras.

@@FilmPhotographyProject be nice if you had an outlet in Australia and supplied to Nanolab.
Yes also Velvia and Ektar.

Amazing quality for such a relatively small format! You should roll some Minix 8X11 films, assuming you can get the empty cassettes.
Sold Out? When will there be stock?
Look for a re-stock in a few weeks. Consider signing up for the e-mail newsletter at: filmphotographyproject.com/
Id love to see an 8mm camera on a gimbal & stable shots.

You Tube compression and/or your internet connection.

The developed negative was scanned as a positive. Here's a video on our services - ruclips.net/video/5B6dRyxyIKo/видео.html
@@FilmPhotographyProject Thanks! I didn't know it's possible
THE stuff sweet memories r made of. On the Bolex B8, u gotta rotating 2 lens turret.
Lookin good Mike! Would changing in a dark bag eliminate that daylight leak?

That fogging look is likely caused by lens fungus on the inner surface of the lens. It can be severe sometimes.

16fps
Probably 16 or 18

When will it be restocked?
Hi. In 4-6 weeks. Please consider signing up for our email newsletter - filmphotographyproject.com
Given that it's Std8 "only", extremely good quality.
What light meter app do you use?
The app is simply called LightMeter
Michael Raso Thx for reply👍🏼! Just ordered color film.
How do you figure out shutter speed?
8mm cameras have one shutter speed. Consult the camera manual. (Usually 1/30th sec at 16 frames per second)
Gosh I wish you had more of this film to sell...
We sure do - filmphotographystore.com/collections/movie-film/products/regular-8-film-fpp-cine8-color-negative-50d-film
Wait, is this the same film? Like the same manufacturer. It threw me off because the asa rating isnt the same

I also shot with mine, fine camera

If you cropped the frame not to show the 2 sprockets, no one would guess its 8 and not S8mm
Exactly, it's of very good quality. (BTW, nice to see you here.)
