  1. Is it worth paying for?? With all the streaming already about, is it worth yet another username and password and monthly payment? I haven't seen it, cuz I missed the broadcast and don't really want to pony up.
  2. Dirk, have you not recommended here in the past that '22 be rated at iso250 if scanning? Over exposure isn't dealt with that well if scanning. ??
  3. Rate it at at 25 to compensate for lifht loss in camera. While looking through the lens with a bright light shining in from the film compartment push the lever that pushes the filter in and out to make sure that the filter is out. Usually this is on the indoor setting. Putting it on the indoor setting will disengage the filter which you always want to do. Those filters are old and will degrade your image. The filter is only for use with tungsten film. You'll be shooting the daylight film and do not need it anyway.
  4. Also consider using 200t instead of 500t. This may or may not work for you. ?? It will give you cleaner shadows in low light situations.
  5. The Zeiss super speeds mk3 at boston camera make for a very sharp image. The widest aperture have ever used on them is T2. They were extremely sharp at that T stop.
  6. Tyler, hiw did you find the Xeen lenses on S16?
  7. I have been less than 5 feet from an Aaton Penelope 2 perf when it was running on a very quiet set. Some of the ACs were putting their ears up to the body to see if they could hear anything. (not during a take) Completely quiet from where I was standing
  8. I doubt it is a camera issue. Could be: Film stock issue-it looks old Development issue Scanning issue - get it rescanned on a Scan Station.
  9. I never saw the original but would definitely rent it. Is it still available?
  10. can your camera output 4k? if so and you are finishing to HD, then shoot in 4k and you will have all the resolution you need for stabilization in post. More consumer cameras have built in stabilization that is used during production. I have used a Canon Vixia HF s100 on occasion and it has such a feature. It works rather well.
  11. This is on Super8arena.com http://super8arena.com/sankyo-xl-210-supertronic-p-155.html
  12. I would not get a trash can Mac Pro. Buy a Mac Pro 5.1 12 core Xenon and max it out. Much more bang for the buck
  13. Your video looks great!! Watching the black and white, I thought, Why not just use 7266 in Super 8?
  14. Very nice work. Did you do some sort of post-production stabilisation? The stop motion animation is very good. Very good exposure.
  15. was the "under the stars" scene shot day for night? Beautiful work by the way. Lots of people ask about budget for a S16 feature compared to a digital camera. So for their benefit, what was your budget and what ratio did you shoot at?
  16. I would add that some segments in the new Twin Peaks could be considered experimental. Also Check out: www.Roberttoddfilms.com A rather prolific experimental film maker
  17. The Fighter, American Hustle and Joy are all 2 perf. Jackie, Carol were S16. Those are just a few that come to mind. What Reggie stated is correct though. If you are concerned about less than one percent of the audience, OK, but otherwise no one will care
  18. There is a story, how do we get everyone off this beach. We see several characters large and small attempt to do that. We see their personal triumphs and failures along the way. Plenty of character development. Look at the character that Cillian Murphy plays. As it has been said here before we all know the story, but it is what Nolan chooses to show us that is brilliant.
  19. Just got back from the "regular" 70mm 9pm screening of Dunkirk. Wow! Has to go up there as one of the greatest war films in film history. Christopher Nolan has firmly cemented himself as one of the greatest auteurs in cinema. a few spoilers follow Cinematically I was blown away. The shear size and definition of the frame was mesmerizing. Ironically I had just watched a piece earlier in the evening about Elsa Dorfman and her giant Polaroids. I was amazed at how sharp they are. Then later in the evening going to see this film, the sharpness was very much the same, despite the giant Polaroids being much larger. Loved how you never see the enemy. The sound design is as good as the visuals! The beach scenes, either in a wide shot or close up are probably the most beautiful, but I am splitting hairs. This film is a perfect match of format and story. It was in every way worthy of expense and extra effort it took to shoot in 15/70 and 5/70. I am just rambling for the most part because I was very impressed in a good way by this film and am still processing it. If you can, go see a film presentation of Dunkirk, not digital. Go to an arthouse, their projectionists usually do a better job than a megaplex. But go see this film. It is subtle and gigantic at the same time.
  20. Nice to see the new super 8 camera in action though!! When is it going on sale??!!!???
  21. I agree. Not that inspiring cinematography either. I wonder where and on what the transfer was done??
  22. Thanks. I can't change it until bidding is done.
  23. For sale is my Aaton LTR7 S16 camera plus a Canon TV zoom lens 15-150 ƒ2.8. PL mount. Sale includes; Everything works 100 percent. It was overhauled in fall of 2012 by Duall in NYC. Used frequently, but I have two cameras and now only need one. It shows signs of wear, but it is very well made and is completely functional. Rock steady registration. LTR7 S16~PL mount body cap 2x mags 2x batteries charger hand grip case Canon TV zoom lens 15-150ƒ2.8 front and rear lens caps $3000.00 US Buyer to pay shipping cost Tripod NOT INCLUDED sample footage:
  24. I agree some odd choices on several counts, however, Canon c300 and c500 I think have a great look, so why not c200?. It seems as if the Raw LIght can work directly with Avid AMA , but is having to transcode footage before you can use it a big deal or deal breaker?? I think that it is a wait and see for the c200. I suspect the footage will look great, how practical and easy it is to get that remains to be seen. I like the look of the sensors that canon makes rather than blackmagic.
  25. Now there is the Canon c200. How does it factor in compared to the other cams mentioned?
