  1. I’m not too experienced with this. I notice the flares of course and also the strange and beautiful appearance of bokeh with them. What else makes an anamorphic lens a good choice for use?
  2. Hey, I’m trying one out now. But do you know why it has this screw in the back part? The guy said it’s to tighten the rear focusing but I don’t see it in any other ones. (The picture I take of it with my phone keeps telling me nuts bigger than allowable file for this post)
  3. I have a run-of-the-mill refrigerator/freezer unit in my kitchen and two unopened boxes of Kodak Super8. I can put them in the fridge until i need them in February or March? I want to be sure the manufacturer's wrapping and box is ok in the fridge and I don't need a special bag.
  4. How did it work out Gabi? I also wish it were mechanical. I'm hoping manual will hold up long enough to make some good things. Jeff at DuAll told me to be very careful with the turning of that because if it breaks it's hard to fix, requiring opening it all up. Cheers, DEK
  5. Perhaps I should treat 32 degrees F the same? It's dry but about 32 F now outside and I got this Canon 1014 S8 camera at DuAll Camera....they did a full CLA but it sounds like that isn't entirely relevant. (It's 83 F in my apt!)
  6. Got a 1014 last week. Now it's 30-45˚ F out so I'll go try to find one of these, since the warranty expired about 48 years ago.
  7. Thanks Joerg, Yes i see it has this switch to jump up to that 54 fps.
  8. Thanks David, Watched some videos on shutters so it makes more sense now.
  9. Thanks Mark, Yeah been studying up on the whole thing today. I'll just shoot where it's best and make the most of it. Very fun.
  10. Hey Patrick, My Canon 1014 Auto Zoom Super 8 camera manual says it has a max shutter angle of 150˚. According to an online calculator, having entered 150˚ angle at 18 fps = 1/43.2 of a second in terms of shutter speed. Pictured below is the options on the Canon. There's O, 2 is 1/2, 4 is 1/4, C is closed. Is the idea that 150˚ is close enough for the human eye? The online calculator had no 1/36 option. I'm new at this so I'm trying to learn some more about shutter angle
  11. Hello! I got a Canon 1014 Auto Zoom Super 8 camera. It has a variable shutter angle 0 to 150 degrees. Now why isn't 180 degrees available? For that matter, why wouldn't anything from 0-360 degrees be available? It's got 18 fps, 24 and about 54 for slow motion. Can someone help me to decide how to properly understand and set my shutter angle on this cool old camera?
  12. DuAll Cameras sells film movie cameras: http://www.duallcamera.com/ They're in Westfield, NJ. It's a trip from Albany but I think they're one of the few if not the only ones, and their reputation precedes them, which counts for a ton if buying an old film camera, unless you also fix and restore them.
  13. Oh man, sorry this got totally lost in the months. Thanks guys for the input!
  14. This was a cartridge of Kodak Vision 3 500T. As far as I know, there's no sign in viewfinder, but there could be and i haven't seen it illuminate yet. Very scant info on this camera online. Actually, zero info haha. Even the folks at Leica US have no idea. Even the folks at Leica GERMANY HQ have no idea.
