Hi Steve, Thank you. If you log onto your Vimeo account you will see the download link under "About this video". What do you mean by your reference to "server scripts"?

John, I assume you are going to edit your transferred footage with a digital NLE. Use the belt driven Nizo 6080/6056. You may or not use a cheap clap board to mark the start frames visually (clap board scene description) and audibly (clap board sound). However synchronization of visual and separate audio recording is not really an issue nowadays and is actually quite easy with plural eyes software which matches up the audio waves. It works and it is used professionally. http://www.singularsoftware.com/pluraleyes.html That being said you could construct a barney for the Nizo. Run some tests. Do you have access to an Aaton 16mm camera which is an excellent reference for a sound sync camera? Run an audio test. In fact I literally had to put my ear next to the Aaton Super 16mm cam I was testing last evening to make sure it was running at 24 fps. You may need to change the belt on the Nizo due to age. What are the environmental acoustic requirements for your piece? Large empty rooms or chatty loud cafes? There are no real technical limitations nowadays. Just tap into the will to execute. Cheers! Nicholas

Here is my latest Super 8 film dedicated to Darcy Allan Sheppard running up to the Michael Bryant demonstration this evening at the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) set for 5pm, i.e. vimeo.com/m/39320829 Michael Bryant was our former provincial Attorney General (Ontario Liberal Party) and also former Aboriginal Minister who killed Darcy, a cyclist and courier....back in 2009. Darcy was Aboriginal. Metis I believe. If your on Facebook and reside in Toronto, tomorrow's demo is located here, i.e. facebook.com/events/394907670519688/. The case was never brought to trial, evidence was never tested and Bryant walked free, And still maintains political ambitions. As per bryantwatch.wordpress.com/ "On March 29, 2012, Michael Bryant, champion of the 1%, will once again seek the spotlight. He will be speaking at the Royal Ontario Museum, RBC Foundation Glass Room discussing policy options for the Liberal Party of Canada followed by an opportunity to mingle and have drinks at the exclusive Bedford Academy, 36 Prince Arthur Avenue" One of the best commentaries and actually written by a lawyer no less, i.e. bicycling.com/blogs/roadrights/2009/09/16/when-worlds-collide/.

Thanks for posting, Ben. Confirmed regarding the fact that pushing emphasizes highlights which results in increased contrast. Which may be just fine as I predominately shoot high contrast film with the UltraPan8 format I use. Specifically Ektachrome 100D. In fact I ended up rating the 50D at 400 ASA due to the lighting at the event. I would have definitely availed myself of a faster Vision stock but I cannot due my utilization of the UltraPan8 format which utilizes Regular 8 film (2R-1497). Specifically the full 16mm width of R8 with R8 pulldown. Here is a scanned example, i.e. In general there only two reversal R8 (2R-1497) stocks available, E100D and Plus-x. UltraPan8 utilizes the right side B-Wind perf for pulldown. I recently had Mr. Edward Nowill in the UK reperforate 800 FT of standard single perf 16mm V3 50D (1R-2994) into a special B-wind only R8 stock, i.e. 1R-1497. Vision 3 250D/200T/500T are forthcoming.

This is great! Is this V3 200T? Canon 814 or 1014 XL? Cropping the 4:3 S8 frame still holds up. I suspect your diopter was not set correctly as some of the shots specifically the zooms are a tad soft. Keep shooting.

Hi Jock. I would if I could. However I am utilizing the UltraPan8 format which utilizes Regular 8 film (2R-1497). Specifically the full 16mm width of R8 with R8 pulldown. Here is a scanned example, i.e. In general there only two reversal R8 (2R-1497) stocks available, E100D and Plus-x. UltraPan8 only utilizes the right side B-Wind perf for pulldown. I recently had Mr. Edward Nowill in the UK reperforate 800 FT of standard single perf 16mm V3 50D (1R-2994) into a special B-wind only R8 stock, i.e. 1R-1497. This only usable in the UP8 format. V3 200T/500T are forthcoming. Hence my question.

I am aware of the general advantages regarding negative latitude. How far can I push this 50 ASA negative stock? 1, 2 or 3 stops? Any scanned examples? Cheers!

Here is my latest UltraPan8 sketch "Can Cruiser Red". Brilliant fall colors, red cruiser bike, red jacket. And one very happy new owner. Is Ektachrome 100D the new Kodachrome? :) Regards, Nicholas Kovats Canada

That's correct and detailed in my post, Robert. Single perf 16mm acetate stock (B-wind 1R-2997) cannot be reperforated into 2 perf R8 film (2R-1497)with Mr. Nowill's setup. Unperforated sheet film potentially could be. One would have to contact Mr. Nowill to verify which specific sheet film width is applicable. I suspect unperfed 16mm sheet is not available from Kodak. But if Mr. Nowill's specific sheet film machine can accommodate stock Kodak 35mm V3 50D w/ perfs then potentially yes. I believe three strips of R8 could be derived from a single 35mm strip.
