Just because 64T is not available as a 16mm product does not mean that it is not slit to 16mm then slit to S8 and loaded into carts.

J.S.

Then they should provide it in R8 along with 100D!

I don't think that is the case with 64t.

I did a little research and contacted Dwayne's Photo to see what they had to say. Here is what I emailed them, followed by their response. I recently heard that Kodak may discontinue Ektachrome 64T in the super 8mm film stock. I was wondering if this was true or just a rumor? I read this info at a ...

It's really the colors more than anything else that makes it look like 64T!

If you take into consideration that the price of silver is going to skyrocket in the not so distant future, then you can expect all film stocks to go the way of the buffalo.

What frame rate did you use?

The proof is in the simple logic that most people should be able to understand. As I said, back in the day they did not use these cameras to produce "works" which required significant lapses of time between each take due to planning. And besides, just because Bolex does not mention it in t...

It's a shame that I have to spell out everything for you. Keeping a camera in storage for long periods of time that has not been wound down is the same as shooting short scenes with a spring motor that constantly has tension in it. If you are making a film and there are significant lapses of time be...

The proof is on the very website that you made reference to. And this is one point that the owner got right. He said that if a camera is left in storage and it has not been wound down, the spring motor will need to be replaced.

The Bolex guide says to rewind so that you won't be disappointed when your camera stops on the next take. It does not state this based on accurate timing. These cameras came out at a time when they were not used for making short films in the sense that we know short films to be in today's context. T...

If you are shooting a short film, that means that the motor is left not run down between scenes. So the tension is stored in the spring for longer periods of time.

I checked their site and I came across a statement that I did not agree with so I sent theme the following e mail: "Wind the spring motor after each shot. This will ensure the motor will run at consistent speed. Failure to do this may result in the motor reaching the end of it's wind before the...
