Logmar is seeking interest in new Super 8 Vistavision cam

Post by Nicholas Kovats »

Logmar is seeking interest in a new horizonatal loading Super 8 Vistavision anamorphic camera. No threading. Approximately $2,500 US +. I calculated the proposed frame dimensions at 5.69mm (h) x 8.44mm (w) w/ AR = 1.48:1 which would be it's flat aperture but with a 2x anamorphic expands laterally to 3:1.

Interesting idea - the short running time though would be quite a drawback
