Hey, so I'm starting to use film now as all I seem to be doing is trying to replicate it in post.. Might as well use the real deal! Thought I'd start dead simple with a basic super 8mm camera, I got one off ebay for 99p with a projector and splicer.. Bargain! What I'm stuck on is what film to buy. I've got the following.. Ben & Howell Focus-Matic 'Low Light' 674/XL Eumig Wien type P8 D Projector The instructions say it'll accept any ASA160 (for low light) or ASA40 (for outdoors) film. I don't think I'll be shooting particularly low light any time, so I am hoping to find an ASA40 film to start off with. I've found the Kodak reels, but none of them state the ASA (speed?) Any advice would be SO much appreciated :) THANKS!! :)
