Kodak Brownie Model II 8mm Movie Camera - Overview / Loading

Michael Raso loads the classic Kodak Brownie II 8mm movie film camera! The Brownie Model II is a late 1950s wind-up clockwork-driven camera (that takes no batteries) with a fixed-focus 13mm Kodak Cine-Ektanon lens. Double 8 film, developing and scans at The FPP - filmphotographystore.com/coll...

Back when commercials were entertaining and enjoyable to watch and listen to, in sharp contrast to today. Another winner, FPP!

YAY! Everytime the FPP posts a video about loading an old 8mm or 16mm movie camera -- I jump for joy because I get to her John's famous "PRESSURE"!!!!!!

Thank you. I thought my camera was broken until you said it was a wind up. 😅

Just came into possession of a Brownie (I think it's a model I), and it has the names of my great-grandparents on it. It's a nice piece of both camera history and family history!

Thanks for the video. We have come into possession of 3 different brownie cameras. Very helpful 🙂👍

Hi, thank you for this tutorial! When looking through the view finder do you generally want to stay within the yellow region or can you go as big as the red without having any of your image cut off?

Do you have any tips for when your first roll is finished, and it’s time to swap to another roll while outside?

[@PerroLandaeta]

hello! i had a problem with my brownie II, tre trigger button will not work. it seems to be disconnected to de mechanism that make the movie roll... i cant fix it. can you help me?

[@neerlandais_5100]

So for the counter that counts the feet, would you reset it to 25 when you put in a new spool/flipping to the other side?

[@markjensen4489]

So--roughly 30 seconds of filming per winding? Is this generally consistent for all key-wound 8mm cameras?

[@jamesclaygarrison7192]

What's the difference between the Model 2 and the original. My Brownie looks almost identical to yours but it doesn't day Model 2 on it. Thank you

My son's friend just gave him one of these cameras, There is film in it already, he opened it so that film is ruined? And from your explanation, it is on the second side already. Not sure where the friend got it but it was a present to my kid. Is the Cine8 the only film that can be used in these or just the one that is highly recommended? It runs, would it be beneficial to have it looked at to see if it works? Thanks!

Just got one of these bad boys, is the film processing expensive ?
