The link between the film and digital world doesn't happen in camera. It happens in the lab. The key is to offer lab services where you can drop your film off and get a file back promptly and cleanly. Kodak -is- trying to do that and that's a good thing, but that service works just as well with

It's true, Jeff. But... maybe we'll be getting some E-6 stock from Ferrania in the next couple years, and then you can get that look with Super-8 or even (for really not much more operating cost) 16mm. And... if the trust-fund hipster market keeps Kodak open a little bit longer while they can fig

Hello Maybe I’m a lone voice on this forum, but I’m actually quite excited about Kodak’s new Super 8 film camera, and I find it somewhat disappointing to read so much negativity about an attempt to offer a new Super 8 film camera to a digital world. I’ve hardly drank the Kokak Kool-Aid, but i

Super 8 has an aesthetic based on reversal film, shot with little cameras one holds against their eye. Color neg in Super 8 just looks like bad 16mm, IMHO. And if it costs $100 to process and scan 2.5 minutes of film, not including the raw stock, it's cheaper to shoot 16mm, including processi

If they are interested in conspicuous crud in the gate, we can rent Mr. Snoot The Amazing Yeti Cat for very reasonable rates. He just wants the occasional cat treat. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5

It seems to be targeted at digital videomakers (including the Hollywood directors that Dave Tetzlaff named) who want that "super 8 look" including conspicuous crud in the gate. John Porter, Toronto, Canada On Thu, 7/13/17, Dave Tetzlaff wrote: Subj

Which specific Bolex Reflex viewfinder are you referring too, Scott? My regular and UltraPan8 Bolex 13x Reflex viewfinders provide a crisp clear image. Not as bright as the later Aaton and Arri viewfinders but quite good considering it's prism based. On Fri, Jul 14, 2017 at 1:15 PM, Scott Dorsey

Hi all - I know that Kodak has a couple of prototypes of the new Super8 digital but they are - as of January - not yet available for "trying out." But should be soon. to offer a little clarification on the film developing with digital angle through Pro8mm in Burbank (Kodak's suggested deve
