Help finding film stock...


Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me where to find the B&W negitive Super 8 film stock from KAHL? I've been to their website but the catalogue is in german. Plus the shipping fee would give me this face: :blink:

 

If anyone knows of a place in the states or canada I'd appreciate it greatly.

 

Thanks for your time-Jonnie :P

I live in Europe so no idea where you get the Stock in Canada or US. Rumours say it's Orwo from Filmotec that Kahl puts in their cadriges. http://www.filmotec.de/Produkte/produkte.html Filmotec only has it in 16mm and 35mm, all the technical info is on the website but in german I guess...

 

PlusX-Reversal can be nice in negativ, more grain than in reversal, on filmshooting.com you'll find some infos aubout this...

Thank you very, very much!!! Zehr gute!!! World wide shipping included in the purchasing price is amazing, plus processing! I'll have to call over there and order a couple cartridges.

 

Again, thank you Mr.Zitz-Jonnie T.

I've found that worldwide shipping through national post offices and their contractors is really quite reasonable. The shippers to watch out for are both UPS and FedEx, they gouge you. I have air shipped things back and forth to the EU via the PO's for about 1/4 to 1/3 of what the US Parcel RipOffs wanted for substantially the same service.

 

There's something to be said for government subsidy of critical services. If UPS and/or FedEx ran the Internet, this post would cost me $9.98, just like the $9.98 that T-Mobile charges for one days Internet access at Starbucks. I used Starbucks once because I needed to test an Internet stream from a random location - now I know why you never see anyone on the web at Starbucks.

 

Edmond, OK
