Hi. I just found out that Fuji velvia 50D is avaliable in standard 8. But i have an old camera that maybe would overexpose this film on a bright day. What filter can I use, and how to know adjustement on my camera after put filter on.
- And who can process this film? Dwayne`s? Thanks for your attention

Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
This film is processed in the normal E-6 process, same as Ektachrome's, so any lab that could do colour reversal will be able to process it.
You need a ND filter to reduce light, anyway ASA 50 is not that much... I do normally shoot ASA 100 in Double8 without problem (although very closed diaphragm).
This is not a good film for Double8... it's reperforated from bigger formats ad tends to be very jittery. Many people have had bad experiences in old cameras.

Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
I can second that - I had it in three different cameras and it came out jittery from all three ...This is not a good film for Double8... it's reperforated from bigger formats ad tends to be very jittery.

Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
I have shot two rolls of Velvia, and I don't plan on shooting any more. I think you're much better off with Kodak's 100D. In many respects, 100D is better than Kodachrome, and I'm not the only person with that opinion. Wish you the best with your reg-8 filming. Brad M.
Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
Honestly, I think even KAHL UT18 (Agfa RSXII) is better than Velvia for regular 8. Less jittery, and more of a companion to E100D than competition.

Ektachrome 100D in 16mm is amazing when projected. Super accurate colors.BMasson wrote: In many respects, 100D is better than Kodachrome, and I'm not the only person with that opinion.
Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
Totally- there is nothing like projected 16mm 100D. When it comes to S8, I compared it side by side to Velvia a few years ago. They look very much alike with a few subtle differences in color hues, and an extra stop with 100D. Now that Kodak is carting 100D, I wouldn't bother with the 150% extra cost of Velvia.

Re: Fuji Velvia 50D
and http://www.reveladoreversible.webs.com in Spain... just try and compare. Processes anything, not only E-6, even "pushes" at the same price.jpolzfuss wrote:Anyone that does "e6" can process this film, e.g.And who can process this film?
