Miriah Sorenson Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hi there, I have an old Keystone 8 mm motion picture camera that I bought at a pawn shop. Its from the late 40s and has everything except the film spools. It takes double 8 mm film and is really small, I'm not sure where to purchase these spools so I might be able to get the camera working. I don't know if any of you cinematographers out there might be able to help me. Okay, thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeSelinsky Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Yeah, those spools are a bit tough to come by these days, as is practically anything for that camera, film included! Try to search for the website of John Schwind, he is the one guy who supplies Double 8 film and I'm sure he'd have takeup spools as well. You'd probably be better off with a Super 8 camera, the cameras can be gotten almost just as cheap and overall its a better situation for film and availability of stuff, not to mention image quality. - G.
