  1. The demo as far as I can tell is online pitch. Not one you can try out use for a few days to see if it works for you. Of course, I could have missed the free demo section.
  2. I'll clarify a bit now. I want to learn to shoot s16 to blow up eventually to 35mm. At some point I'd like to film a feature. But I know nothing about film, Super 8 looks like a good way to start. I wanted widescreen, so I can frame widescreen shots. I wanted to sync sound to get practice doing it with larger formats. And, I didn't really expect to blow it up to 35mm, but I thought I would ask. You can edit film by hand by splicing, but I think I read somewhere some company will dump the Super 8 to a disk/harddrive so it can be edited digitally. (Aren't most films now edited digitally, even big Hollywood films on an Avid system?) I'm looking for a cheap format to practice, learn and make mistakes, without them being too costly. What is a good editing system for a beginner to edit with? Any suggestions? So I guess I'm looking for a camera I can convert to widescreen (where to I get widescreen film, can you use regular Super 8 film?), where do I go to convert to widescreen (cause that I can't do), what camera is a good candidate to convert to widescreen. and could the camera to sync sound (as nice to have to practice). And does this guy in Toronto have a store?
  3. I'm a screenwriter, looking to learn about film and filmmaking. And it looks like Super 8 may be the way to go. I want something that will allow sound to be sync. Can you get a Super 8 that will do a widescreen picture similar to at 35mm? If so what and where and what should I look for. I live close to Toronto if you can give me the name of a shop. Can you blow-up Super 8 to 355mm? And if so, what are the results? Any other info you think might be useful to me, feel free to share. Like processing, and editing. Thanks.
