[Frameworks] Double 8mm film??

2012-06-09 Thread Margaret Rorison 
I shoot 16mm, but I recently have acquired an old Argus Cinemax 8EE movie
camera, which takes *standard double 8mm film*.

I had a few questions:

Where can I find this film?
Where can I process this film?
Are the projectors used to screen the film different than super 8mm?


thanks!

Meg

Freestyle has FOMA bw Reversal in regular 8:
http://www.freestylephoto.biz/411801-Foma-Fomapan-R100-BandW-Reversal-Film-2x8mm-Double-8-standard-10?cat_id=407You essentially shoot one side of the 16mm width film, then turn it over  shoot the other side. The film is then reverse processed  slit down the middle with both ends spliced together.Some projectors are designed to run either regular or Super 8; most are dedicated to one or the other, however, as the formats use different sprockets.Ed-Original Message-
