Matt Wells Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 For anyone who is wondering, this is an excellent magazine. I had the first English issue and was really impressed with the nice broad spread of articles - it had a quality feel to it too, it is not some cheaply produced mag, but a really professional publication. I highly recommend! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andres victorero Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 about my above post I want to clarify this, because I have received a private message and it told me that these post was an offense: sorry, my english is very bad and i only want to said that I hope that the smallformat survive. I´m a suscriber too. I bought the first issue and I want that this magazine was successful. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Alessandro Machi Posted October 30, 2005 Premium Member Share Posted October 30, 2005 Juergen, maybe you can offer this website a press release in Small Format Magazine and a subscription in exchange for one of those ad banners on right side of this forum for the next month or two. Is it Ok to ask in public how much Cinematography.com charges to advertise with one of those ad banners per month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Robert Edge Posted October 30, 2005 Premium Member Share Posted October 30, 2005 I have received a private message and it told me that these post was an offense Andres, Your English is fine. Personally, I managed to figure out what you were saying in a few seconds, given the smilie at the end. You just happened to use an English expression that is always used in a negative way and never in a positive way. When I'm in France, I manage to do something similar at least once a week, much to the amusement of my French friends. If your first language was English, you would have said something like "good luck, you deserve it". From a literal point of view, "good luck, it serves you right" is very close to the same thing, but a native English speaker just wouldn't express himself that way, except to be critical. This is one of those "errors" that makes native English speakers think about how their own language works. Personally, I enjoyed your originality.

Premium Member Robert Edge Posted October 30, 2005 Premium Member Share Posted October 30, 2005 Andres, It looks like I was editing my post at the same time you were making your response. If you look at the changes I made, you'll see how an English speaker would normally express what you meant. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Ball Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yikes! $80 for six issues? That's a bit steep, don't you think? Most hardcover books don't cost $13 apiece. I really want to support this endeavor, but my frugal side is holding me back. Is there a way I can see a sample before I commit? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Rik Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I feel that we are in a niche group so...I will do what I can to keep this format alive. If Super 8 dies..with no film available..I will have some very expensive paperweights! Yes...$13 is not cheap..but if this takes off I am sure other magazines will get cheaper and who knows? But if we dont support this hobby now, well there may not be another magazine dedicated to Super 8. Its truly incredible that a magazine on Super 8 still exists today. Since the last cameras/projectors were last made almost 22 years ago..crazy! Im subscribed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photos are out of this world and any DP with the bucks to design such a theatre in their home would be wise to subscribe and scoop up the first issue as well.

John Adolfi Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Love to subscribe but I will not! This is the last time I'm publically annoncing that I sent $20 to you months ago and have never received my magazine. I've e-mailed you privately 3 times also. Bad customer service. Real bad. There is however a quick solution. E-mail me and get my address and send me my copy. jadolfi@twcny.rr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats wrong. I always answered. And we sent out the magazine twice. Maybe there is a mistake with your address. But shouldn't we talk to it privately?

Premium Member Robert Edge Posted November 8, 2005 Premium Member Share Posted November 8, 2005 Judging from the web site, the magazine looks like it is mostly of interest to people interested in super 8 and the history of that format. If I'm going to consider subscribing, I need to be convinced that someone who uses super 16 would get something from the magazine. Got a reason, maybe even two :)?
