fred Austin Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Hi all, I'm looking for a lab that could process&reload my DSAP 50' 16mm cartridges, anywhere in world but , as a French located, i'd rather find a lab closer than the States I still have a few of them loaded with 8699 fuji reversal but it is so much of a trouble to load them by myself ! If u have any kind of infos please fell free to contact me Fred Austin f2vaustin@gmail.com +33607027600 Paris-FR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like too much trouble, and used by Bolex for tight angles. If they work ok, I can see these cameras being great for weird angles. I remembered my cam made slightly unsteady footage, but now with After Effects' Warp Stabilizer, any decent but jittery footage from film cameras without registration pins can be stunning. Works great with my 35mm Konvas footage. Edited October 5, 2012 by Steve Zimmerman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred Austin Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Many thanks Steve for your answer, but Alan Gordon no longer process this kind of medium But I think i found a lab in Berlin,DE, that do treat this "exotic" format ANDEC Film labs Cheers Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Charles MacDonald Posted October 6, 2012 Premium Member Share Posted October 6, 2012 But I think i found a lab in Berlin,DE, that do treat this "exotic" format ANDEC Film labs Any lab can process the actual film, as long as it is fairly current stock*, but they may not have a setup to use the funny little cores that are in the magazines. The 50ft mags have 16mm DOUBLE PERF film wound EMULSION OUT. The Threading pattern in the mag is a bit complicated as at one point the film goes over the SAME sprocket twice. Ask Alan Gordon Nicely and they can probably provide a copy of their Re-loading instructions. Note that you would have to do some machining to get the mag to accept single perf film, so you may have to go through a dealer to get double perf stock, and not every stock can be ordered as double perf, and what can sometimes has a minimum order of several thousand feet. *Fairly current in this case is any B&W and Colour Negative, or Ektachrome/Fujichrome, but does not include Kodachrome- No one can process that any more.

Site Sponsor Robert Houllahan Posted October 7, 2012 Site Sponsor Share Posted October 7, 2012 We have these mags come into Cinelab from time to time, loaded with everything from older film to new ECN and B&W-R Kodak used to have 50' daylight spools but I don't think they are available anymore. Any lab or anyone with a set of rewinds should be able to load these with 16mm. -Rob- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
