About expired Kodachrome 40 I am to searching to use Kodachrome 40 before devel. stops this year. I got 4 rolls with exp. date 2005 thy was in a freeser all the time. Most i am looking in Ebay to find but i am unsure how old Kodachrome 40 can be and how i store it after i have recieve it. Any tips are welcome.

Finaly i got my Beaulieu 4008 MKII and i plan to shoot my first test. I will shoot on the beach , sunny day afternoon and most i like to come as close as possible to a polaroid feeling that i shoot Off cource i could do post processing but i like to have a original as its get. So any suggestion of Film And or Filters are welcome. A other question or better a advice is where i found some info how i use my beautieu. I am a still photographer where there i am totaly in control of Fstops but on filmcaeras as my beaulieu i have a frame rate & a shutter opening angle that is, i think <180 degrees I need just to know more how those 2 terms work together and especially with the filmstock i need to use. Last question is where i can get filter or filter adapters for the beaulieu (Poolfilters & ND's)

I was already in contact with uppsalabildteknik and i think i talked to Kent. He have give me some great advice and thedo a great job for Super 8mm, and the Price are really good. (Sad they dont support 16mm & super 16mm telecine) back to the Issue with flickering shaking, strobing and general imaging quality this was the one think that have make me scared to go with Super 8mm. As i am totaly new in this Game and dont know much i was all the time between film DSLR or HDV Off course Film is my love as and a super 16mm would be ideal but far away from my budget as the only solution is a Beaulieu R16 or K3 and i dont know those cameras att all.!! Now the thinks are so... I know EXACTLY what i like to do and what to shoot and if i think that there are 2 short films that will be max 6 min longs i try to capture them in the best posible quality. One NEED to be Super 8mm as i need this homemade, amateur feeling and the special color and Grain The other now its more harder to shoot and much DOF and low light where the Highlights & blacks need to have definition. Not much grain and a very very stable picture. Thats make DSLR maybe not the best choice and thats make a Super 16mm so atractive for me.

Very Good Work Chris. I am a fashion still photographer and I really like how you have filmed Fashion . Great color and feeling. Nice to hear lite more about the making off. The colors are Post Processing? Again Great Work

Thanks Ian for the info. So its mainly a issue of Bad Telecine and mostly Super 8's cartridge design. If i get it right then a 16mm or Super16mm camera with good Telecine would do a better job. I am living in Europe Sweden and as far as i know i havent find a 16mm or Super 16mm telecine tranfer (that is good and not overprised). In Sweden i have found a shop that do Super 8mm (flashscanHD, 3CCD HD chip, Laserstabilisation, Apple ProRes 422 codec with 10 bits color 1280x720@50p). No Idea what those Thanks for the answer as i am novice in those thinks and i really need to know more before i deside wich way i go. Still I am between a 4008, 16R or K3. (the 16mm & Super 16mm cameras are off course welcome but i will not dare buy one if i am not sure where and in what price i can transfer & Telecine my film) Again thanks (And btw.. I have know already your name from the videos i Vimeo :-)

First hello to everyone. That is my first Topic Cinematography Forums. I am a still photographer from Sweden that going in to shoot his first short art movie. I think after much reading etc i go with a Beaulieu 4008 or R16 (Depence the look). Now my, maybe stupid, Question. In extremly many films i have look Online (S8mm & 16mm) There is a shaking, strobing etc.. The Image looks not stable and i am talking not about Pans & Zooms. Off course Big Movie productions use many stabilisers and crans etc to make smoth movements BUT my Question is Depence those to the camera Gear, how the film is transportet, Shutter Speed as I belive its more comon to S8mm The same with the flickering. Is there any way to avoid Flickering, strobing etc. Thanks Lambis
