Last year was available, for first and last time in the history, Kodachrome film loaded in single 8 cartridges. I have filmed my 2009 annual familiar hollidays in Kodachrome Single 8, using the Iscorama 36 1.5 x anamorphic, with the Leitz 10 mm prime lens, with the Fuji ZC1000. This clip is the main title and the end title on the film. All the effects (4 pictures in 1) and superimposing titles are made in camera! The sound is recorded on the magnetic stripes using a Fujicascope SD 25 projector.
