Hi guys, I am in Munich doing some work and shooting with my Nizo 801. The thing is that the lock of the cartridge door broke. Does anybody know of a please in Munich, London, or Barcelona that can make a quick fix. All the help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Spectra Film and Video in North Hollywood, CA do a good job but I am not sure if they handle the markings on the ground glass...

Thanks guys!!

Here are 2 photos

Michael, no 16 or 35 marking. OKC1-50-4, 2/50, f2.3 to f16, 1m to Inf. I will post photos shortly.

I bought this lens under the impression that would work with my Kinor 16 but it does not. Anybody has any information on this lens, what type of mount, is it for 16mm or 35mm? OKC1-50-4... Thanks

Hi everyone, I am going to be shooting my friend's wedding this weekend and I wanted to get some inside tips by anyone that has shot weddings before or anyone with any helpful tip. The ceremony is at 3pm outdoors I do not have info on the reception yet, most likely the it will be indoors going through the night. These are the best cameras at my disposal: Canon 1014 xls Nikon R10 Beaulieu 4008ZMII Which of these cameras do you thinks is a better choice? I like them all, but want to here your take on a wedding scenario. I am going to use Tri X and Plus X for color stock what do you guys suggest? Tripod, hand held or both? All tips are welcome and appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks Herb and Olex. This is very helpful.

Hi everyone, I have a stupid question.... Can you load a 100' daylight reel in the 30 meter magazine of a Kinor 16 cx-2m or you need to have the film without the spool? I told you it was a stupid question :rolleyes: Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello, I just notice that I posted almost the same question yesterday, sorry for that. My problem is with a Nizo 801 Macro. Reading this, a day late :huh: , it seems that a few people have a similar problem. Anyone knows if this is a common problem with Nizos? My Nizo runs and sounds fine except for the light meter in the auto position and manual is not working. Also anyone knows of a good technician in the US for Nizo cameras. The guy that I use to fix my cameras is not to fond of Nizos. Thank for all the help.

A little cheap camera could be the Minolta 401 or 601 these cameras are compact, manual and auto exposure, and both models have time lapse capabilities which I think is a cool feature to play around with. You can find these cameras on e-bay fairly cheap. These are not the best super 8 just starting point? I do agree if you are able to get your hands on a Canon 518, 814 Electronic or 1014 Electronic you will get a great starting camera. If you search this forum you will find a ton of information on the top S8 cameras my personal favorites are: Nikon R10 ? great glass Canon 1014 XLS Beaulieu 4002 ZMII In regards to books I think that a great starting point would be: Independent Film Making by Lipton, Lenny You can pick this up from an Amazon seller for about $3.00 USD. And the best way to learn is to shoot, shoot and shoot?of course take lots of notes?. Good luck and enjoy.

Hi Lee, I also have a Kinor and I am very interested in what you are doing with the matt box and video tab. Once you are done please post some photos and a step by step of how you did it. I would really appreciated.

Thanks David.

Hello all, I am looking for articles or papers on the cinematography of Fellini's 8 1/2. The DP was Gianni Di Venanzo. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for all the suggestions. I am keeping my eyes open at e-bay for some good, cheap Nizo. What do you guys think of the Nizo S 560? Thanks!!

My personal favorites: Canon 1014 XLS Nikon R10 - great glass Great cameras!!! If you are patient you could provably get a great R10 for less than $200.
