If you expect to need splitting more you could also check for LOMO splitters being offered on eBay. There a few guys from Russia or Oekraïne who have a permanent list of all kind of ciné and photo gear. Often with handling partners in USA or Wesern-Europe. With paypal :)

If it must be in driving distance I don't know of any addresses. IF USA or East-Cost is your 'region' :) then http://www.super16inc.com/ should be a good address. Good luck.

Thanks Art, Super8man to the rescue :) It is wonder how that website holds up in time. Too bad it lost it domainname. So the filter is forced out by the cartridge. The speednotch is set to 100? Just one step slower then 7240

What is notchless? No ISO notch at all? That would cause many cameras to expose incorrectly as a really low ISO :(.

Is Super-8 the format to use? The images may have some atmosphere but for are an outsider there is very little to see. You need more frame filling events. Super-8 was always recommend to the be applied in close up. It is a consumer format. For your kind of work 16mm would be better and/or you need to make things happen in the frame. That would mean get on a board/jetski and get a underwaterhousing. These exist for Beaulieu 2/4008, 6008, Bauer Aquarius C-series, Fuji for P1 and AX100. The EWA things should work too. And there are small watertight Eumig's Surfing is not a sport to enjoy watching through a telescope :)

Tricky too speculate but... This strictly means that by demand or other factors the end-date could be postponed :)

European Kodachrome ciné prepaid mailers have not been accepted for years. You need to send the films directly to Dwayne's labs before end of 2010 or use a service like Wittner's which is better if you have only 1 or 2 films. BTW Kodachrome 135 cassettes are still handled by the Swiss office and just are sent to the lab in USA

Indeed there is progress on the development. If you click the cinevia order film picture you will be taken to cinefox site which now seems to handle the selling process. Maybe ask and order there. The www.gkfilm.de site has change too. Check the recent velvia topic in this forum.

Seems the website GKfilmwas modified to show the machines with actual slit and perfed film running through them. A cartridge is stated to cost Euro 33,50 including processing (and sales tax). With shipping by Cinevia.eu (i.e. from Austria, expensive) things get out of hand a bit. Especially from outside EU. And http://www.Cinevia.eu is not working properly yet :(

Any success with the machine? Here is another opportunity, "MEKEL 300 HIGH SPEED ANALYSIS CAMERA, 300fps VERY RARE!" ebay 280479441672 I reckon I am not spoiling anybody's advantageous opportunity here :) Although it is nicely conmplete.

Bumped into a small stock of 30meters K25 DS8 myself. One last spring/summer/autumn with Kodachrome. :) There must so much film around in freezers and cellars. Enough for many years for the die hards. Now find it! We'll see what comes of this newest Cinevia announcement. Maybe it works out this time. Mr Klose has an entitlement to success after all these years. Noticed a photo of large pyramid of Cinevia boxes on a table at some magazine or filmclub webpage. Possibly Waghäusel? Was this recent? How is this with text in the wikipedia about Fuji stopping production of Velvia in 2006?

These 120 EPY rolls don't fit my S8 cameras :) This undated text states 3 weeks for the machines to become opeational. BTW I recall these new redisgned cartridges have been in the air for like 4-5 years.

This message has been on their site for two years :( There is no actual delivery of these wonder cartridges. They are too busy working on Polaroid re-introduction :) Hope that actually works out. But there they have the original manufactering site of Polaroid as a partner. Stoppage of 64T in S8 is just a made up rumour of one of these forums.

Well, that is good news. The image quality has been praised before. But running the film through a S8 camera gave some people difficulty. Where did you buy it and where was it processed? Wittner's ? They are more the pro business and also they state that they have their own production of S8 cartridges lubed.

If it has been in a shop for maintenance one should expect that the FPS-es are tested and adjusted or reported being off. The batteries wouldn't make it run faster. There is a speedregulator which steers the motor. If it is too fast this circuit should be adjusted.

If you wait a bit or possibly a camera is already there then you can use an iPhone to monitor viewfinder: Topic thread HDMI for iPhone

In EU then check with http://www.ffr-film.de/tak/index.php/retro-enterprise/home They are actively reselling single-8 from Retro8 and I know they answer email :) BTW Maybe your emails are filtered out at the Japan end. Happens everywhere. Also the webshops get swamped with email and owners get behind on handling.

Call them and ask? Mr Tak speaks english. FFR is still selling and they use Retro8 for processing. Retro8 send film to Fuji and does in house processing for E6 Super8.nl does one off processing. Possibly nanolab in Australia does processing on request, just check.

still sold out, despite the price :)

With a homemade camera and self-filled Kaccema cartridges you ought to think/expect errors at your own side and not with proffesional services who serve the world. Better send a clip to Wittner and ask their analysis. Instead of hypothesizing and blaming others.

It far more likely picked up a red-light exposure from an power-indicator-LED or something when you handled it. Or possibly a infra-red light used? The lab does work for many more customers and they would find out if they had a lightleak in their processor. Especially if it were the one and only Kodachrome lab :( For the OP post. How long can you wait, not know all details and then blame somebody else?

Start reading : thread here with info on video assist

Don't understand what you are talking about. A little upset being exposed as an overcharging (and not the batteries) fellow hobbyist? The voice on the video has the same timbre as mr Moore. For the rest it is a bumpy video. Clearly shot by the instructor himself. Whoever that is, but possibly longtime super-8 provider mr John Longecker himself. If one is shooting from a tripod such a rig may be usefull. Otherwise the clip-on the eye-piece or built onto a flash-bar-like-holder which uses the flash-shoe are best policies.

S8 techguide - film.project-consultant.net S8 = Super8 and the crisp Single-8 I will update this site continously (last modification: aug 16, 2006) The site is abandoned and nobody is answering email or writing in paper... As stated the movexoom is a nice camera. Just use it and don't send it to Luxembourg :) Possibly you are better off with super16inc.com (from USA) If he does these agfas

well, simple googling brings plenty info. for one: 4008 with tap
