It is unexposed super-8 film on the table. Odd while this belongs in a cassette and there is no purpose in yanking it out as this ruins it.

 

From the perf shape it looks more like 16mm to me.

Looks like Canon Scoopic 16mm: http://www.erkanumut.com/?s=16m

The camera is a Canon Scoopic. Likely for Super-8

The Canon Scoopic was a 16 mm, or a Double-Super-8 camera (DS8 uses no cartridge for the film, just spool, and gives Super8 film as a result).

 

 

Definitely 16mm and not 8mm, super 8 or ds8. If it were DS8 film it would be perforated on both sides.

Thanks so much for the quick response :) Still have lots to learn!

Scoopics are great 1st 16mm cameras. Not the steadiest camera out there but they are the easiest motion picture film cameras to load & operate on the planet (except Super 8), the lens is not interchangeable but is amazing and the autoexposure is great for someone coming from Super 8 or video.
