  • All these old super 8 cameras can be a bit of a mystery and especially for film sometimes getting this vintage stuff loaded up properly can be confusing at first. Fear not though as Super 8 is one of the easiest formats to load up into a camera so I'm going to take a look at some different models to help you out!

    This is awesome! I just found a Minolta auto zoom 8 and this was super helpful!

    I love your work! Super informational. I've run through all your Super 8 content to get ready for my new camera. Are you able to do a video or explain, shooting a roll of film and switching it out mid-roll for a different one. Say for example, a Kodak 50D to 200T due to lack of light and vice versa.

    im going to sound really ignorant but can you switch out super 8 film packs mid way through shooting?

    • @AnalogResurgence
      @AnalogResurgence  Před 4 lety +4

      Yes! You’ll lose about 6 frames that will be exposed at the front of the cartridge, but that’s only a fraction of a second. Keep in mind that your cameras footage counter will reset though so you’ll have to keep track of your footage yourself!

    Thanks for making this video. I am getting into super 8 myself right now. I was wondering how to set the sun and the lightbulb symbol after loading the film. Do I need to leave it always on the sun setting with the Kodak 50D and always on the lightbulb with 200T/500T? What do I need to think of before setting the sun/lightbulb dial?

    • @knife-wieldingspidergod5059
      @knife-wieldingspidergod5059 Před 2 lety +1

      I think the dial is for the T series stock films. Using T film outdoor with the SUN dial marking.

      Not in my case either, what camera do you have? I have a Canon 814XL, the motor in my camera moves well at different fps, the window opens, and everything works correctly, in the end I discovered that pushing the cartridge hard from behind does transport the film, I hope it helps.@@reb10

I am struggling about whether to sell the old Gaf super 8 film camera and projector, but wang it to be enjoyed. Even if there is a market, I can’t be sure if it is in good enough shape. Are there general places that can examine these cams?

    • @AnalogResurgence
      @AnalogResurgence  Před 4 lety

      That's likely not a super 8 camera, but a regular 8 camera! All Super 8 cameras take the cartridges and if the camera doesn't then it takes regular 8mm that comes on rolls. You can get film like that here:

      That is likely not a Super 8 camera, but actually a Regular 8 camera and it takes Regular 8mm film. This should tell you all you need to know: czcams.com/video/VdU9u-uqCJE/video.html

    • @AnalogResurgence
      @AnalogResurgence  Před 5 lety

      Unfortunately I don't. Super 8 camera repair isn't a very popular skill and usually when these cameras break they break for good. If it's something like that where it's plastic, maybe there's a chance you could tackle it yourself, or even work around it if the rest of the camera is fine.

      That particular camera is a Single-8 film camera, so be careful because it will not take Super 8 film! Single-8 is a fuji format that isn't widely made anymore so it is difficult to get film for. It's a topic I'm planning to tackle soon, but here's some more information on the format: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-8
