Other than me, is there anyone else on this forum who shoots with motion picture film cameras? In about the mid to late 90s, I got into super 8 mainly to experiment with time lapse. For $150, I picked up a Canon 1014 Autozoom Electronic and a Eumig projector. Though it took me at least two months to track down the elusive interval timer that was made specifically for this camera. The 1014 can also run at 54fps, producing a really nice, smooth slow motion effect. During the course of my shooting, I also developed an appreciation for the look of cine film which was distinctly different to video, especially consumer video.
Ive also shot a little 16mm with a Russian made Krasnogorsk 3. I never thought I would use a frame size smaller than super 8 but now, I'm about to dive into regular 8mm. Despite the tiny frame, I have seen some quite impressive imagery with this very old 8mm format. Of course to get really stellar results, it's almost mandatory to use slow speed film stocks exposed with sharp prime lenses like the Switars on a Bolex H8.
