OT: Kodak Super 8 Camera

[David Mathis]

Hi Walter!

I probably will start off small by doing something like birthday parties for close friends and family. May even use it when going on a vacation. That way I can learn from my mistakes and get an idea of the cost involved. I have been looking on eBay for telecine products so I can cut cost on transferring film into my computer for editing. I may use Resolve to split clips up then move to FCPX for editing. I may do some wedding stuff but not the main event itself for various reasons. I have thought of using the camera to film title cards then composiite digitally in Motion or After Effects over footage. Will not be anything complicated and will not do it all the time.

Now looking for an electric motor for the camera.

Didn’t Kodak originally say the cost of the film would also cover its processing fees?

I don’t recall one way or the other. I did inquire if developing and transfer was included in the price. At the moment the answe is no. It might be when the cameras are available later this year but not for certain.
