Excellent thank you Aapo. I was just wondering as some forums say you need bleach to turn Tri-x back to a negative or something? I was wondering about storing the reel of film after processing it?

Hello, finally got round to processing some 35mm still tri-x at home using R09 one shot and leaving if for an hour with a little agitation at the beginning and middle. Then stop and rinse. I liked the results but I fear this might be too much for smaller formats. I've got a dusty lomo tank and I was thinking it may be better with Acufine, do I need to use any other chemicals? I want to get as fine results as I can before sending them off for a telecine, also if anybody as any tips on how to store them afterwards so them don't get damaged that would be great. A long time film lover, but I'm very new to processing at home.. Thanks for any help. David

I hate live lip-syncing but I'm lost on a music video. I've shot it at 18 FPS and it got telescined at 25FPS. I think I should of made a seperate recording with a phone or something. I'm having difficulty getting it to fit. Is there some percentage I need to slow it down in post? Many thanks

I meant 160.. 1600 iso super 8 would be special.. I'm already finding limits. I'm a massive fan of Christopher Doyles work with Wong Kar Wai and I know he uses a lotta wide lenses that I can;t touch withough macro I think. Many thnaks for the really kind comments. I loved using the format and wanna use it again, the dslr film movement didn't work for me, it's so as stale as the still format. Viva super 8!!!!!!!!

oh regarding faster print film. I think my nizo only measures upto 1600iso. Could it still work automatically somehow?

Many Thanks everyone for the critiques. My photo stuff is below if anyone is interested http://www.flickr.com/people/dangershark/ Nicholas I've just got slide film at the moment including some BW, so might take me a while to get through them, but I would love to use some I only use negative in my photography, so it makes sense. Stephen I'm glad that mentioned that, František Drtikol inspires me, the way he capture soul in shadowplay. I totally agree Anthony. I wanted to get the feel of the movement in the music with the guitar wails, but maybe did it too much.. I forget how easily it is to play with a zoom sometimes.

Many thanks for checking it out! Yeah I used EKTACHROME 100D. The camera I used was a nizo 801, loved using it. I've been giving some 64t, but print might be better, for more latitude, i wanted an overcast day, but wish there was just a bit more light! I definately want to shoot some more soon. I think I've fallen in love with super8. inevitable!

Hello i'm a photographer but I've just made my first suer 8 video. I haven't made a film before but I love films. Any advice or criticism would be wonderful.

Thanks relally helpful video! So what's that thingy she uses and where can i get one?

I'm doing neither. I have around 8 rolls of black and white medium format film that i'd like to eventually develope. But more importantly I'd like to start processing black and white movies. Thanks

Hello I'm new to super 8. I've been filming Kodak Ektachrome 100D so far. I'm getting the bug and want to try black white. I'm used to shooting colour photography but for a while I've wanted to start developing black and white at home too. Can I use the same equipment for photography and super 8 development? Does anybody recommend any equipment or techniques. Excited to hear responses! David Read more: http://www.cinematography.com/index.php?showtopic=48718#ixzz13COlWvi8

Many thanks everybody. I opened it up and lifted it up from inside. There didn't seem to be a spring, but now it meters perfectly. Thanks for everybodies help! The camera was a beaut to use now I just need to get the film processed and telecined.. Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheap HD service around London? Many thanks!

Thanks so much for your help guys. Really handy!! I'm going to test it out first I think. It's so frustrating.. I brought this camera because of the Auto exposure.. grr. Still it is a mighty fine looking camera.

Hello I'm a photographer who's moving onto super 8. I'm shooting soon and just brought a beautiful nizo 801. But I messed around with it and I've somehow jammed the +1 button in. I'm not sure how it's meant to come out.. I understand that this opens the aperture by a stop. I haven't got the time to test it and wondered what effect this will have on super 8 film. Will everything be overposed? I assume it'd look alright with black and white but colours might look off.. Many thanks!
