I second this! I saw Mark LaPore speak about his work at Anthology a
few years back. It was both intimate and great.

Mark LaPore was a stalwart advocate of the Canon Scoopic and sang its
praises to me one day long ago, describing it as basically a pumped up
Super-8 camera (specifically a pumped up Canon 814-XLS): basically the
thing is—unlike e.g. the Bolex and other 16mm cameras) a portable
self-contained unit—automatic in-the-camera light metering,
permanently attached zoom/macro lens and—best of all for LaPore (and
for me) battery powered and thereby capable of long takes, up to the
length of the 16mm roll (a little over three minutes). It's my
understanding that most if not all of Mark LaPore's 16mm films were
shot using this camera including A Depression in the Bay of Bengal,
The Five Bad Elements, The Glass System, The Sleepers, Kolkata. Many
(well, three) of these are available from Canyon Cinema:

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to find examples of important films, or considered seminal
works in the history of experimental cinema, made using a Canon
Scoopic 16mm camera.
Thanks for your help!
Best,
Adeena
