Paul James Savarese Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 So about a month ago I bought the Pro8mm Classic (pro8mm.com) This camera is remarkable and I absolutely love it and hate the fact that I must sell it. Go to the site to get the full specs. Classic Pro The Classic Pro is the super 8 camera of choice by industry professionals for its ease of use and durability. Now available in the new MAX 8 format for widescreen. The Classic Pro camera has been redesigned by our highly skilled technicians to meet the demands of individuals who have professional filmmaking aspirations. The Classic Pro has a solid metal design and gearing suited to provide years of trouble free filming making it the most reliable Super 8 camera around. A variety of options, accessories and lenses are available. Max 8 format - widened gate - repositioined lens?Crystal Sync Control 24fps ?Interchangeable C-mount lens capacity?Variable filming speeds from 2 to 70 fps?Angenieux 8-64mm f/1.9 manual zoom?Internal exposure indicator?NiCad C-cell battery pack?5 Hr. charger?Fitted pelican case Call for rental info 818-848-5522 or fax 818-848-5956 Eyecup Metal lens covers (front and back) I will throw in a sekonic analog light meter and 1 roll of pro8mm film - $200 value. I love super 8 and I love film but I need to shoot tons of footage everyday which can become costly, so I am going dv. I know, traitor right? I have only used this camera once and can assure you it is just as I bought it. The camera was literally born 1 month ago - they built this for me. So how much you ask, well fr everything: $3,000.00 That's $500 less than the retail price, not including the light meter and film! If you're interested please email me: Paulyc44@aol.com. Hurry before I change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Adam Thompson Posted October 11, 2007 Premium Member Share Posted October 11, 2007 I wish I could do it right now! Can I ask you to give an honest impression of the noise level of that camera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul James Savarese Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 That's always a tough question. It is not the quietest, however it is much quieter than a lot of cameras that I have heard. You definiteley need a blimp and to keep the mic away from the camera. A shotgun mic is the obvious choice. I wish I could do it right now! Can I ask you to give an honest impression of the noise level of that camera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
