I've heard that Super16 is rarely used for shooting effects because of stability issues from having only one pin registration. I've also been told that it's become acceptable due to digital stabilization. Has anyone had any experience with this? If I was shooting a movie on Super16 with a large amount of effect shots, is it okay to shoot everything Super16, or would I need to go to 2-pin 35mm for the effects? How do people usually deal with this?

Where can I find these demos? Are you referring to the live events that Kodak puts on, or is this on a DVD or something I can get? Huh, I could have sworn I had heard that this existed. Oh well. Thanks.

Is there any resource that has a comparison of film stocks under identical conditions? Kodak's got examples on their site, but each example is different and meant to show off that particular stock. Someone has to have done a test where they took the exact same shot under the exact same lighting conditions to see how they compare. Does anyone know where you'd find that? In the same vein, I've heard that you can order rolls of still film using the cinematographic emulsion for testing. I'm assuming you would order those from Kodak or Fuji; how much do they cost?
