Kodak was releasing a limited number of them this Spring with general availability coming later in the year. At least, that's what I last read. The limited release is supposed to come with an all gray body and was going to be priced around $2K. The general release will be have the option of a black or white body color and was supposed to be around $700. So, still waiting. It seems as it is going to happen though; from what I've read, Kodak is also busy setting up a few labs around the country specifically to accommodate Super 8 and other film related stuff. 

Cheers!

Hey everyone !

Has anyone here ever encountered such a zoom ? If yes, is there any info on it online or somewhere else ? I can't find anything except that it is described as "a weird piece of glass".

Cheers

Ten or fifteen years ago I had one, it did not fit anything I had, it appeared to be a copy of a Cooke design, and I traded it off to someone who wanted to convert it to PL mount.  

 


35OPF7-1M

I'm talking about a 35OPF7-1M, NOT the 35OPF7-1 or 1A

It looks like it could be a macro zoom. The scale on both rings are weird.

You can see one here : https://www.rafcamera.com/25-250mm-zoom-lens-35opf7-1m-am-f-3-5-t-4-3-macro

Yes.

I was told it was for the medical camera, just no one ever seems to have actually seen a Medical Kinor, and no reference to it seems to exist.

The Soviets were--  uh-- different.

Yeah, I've got one, it's sitting in the cupboard with a second "dead" 
one for spares. Both 1976. I have one big fat diopter (?) that also goes 
on the front, me thinks (?) I have never got around to playing with it  :-(
Maybe I will now...

All the best
Steve

Brandon, 

The Kodak camera has a c-mount on it, so lots of lens options. Not sure of the max speed on it but I do think they're all crystal. 

I thought you owned a Beaulieu 6008 or 7008? No? I think those are capable of 58fps or thereabouts. 

Pin registration? No, I don't think that was ever incorporated into a S8 camera, but am not positive. I'm unsure about your rotating shutter question too. I think most S8 cameras use a split beam finder. I'd be wary of any Super 8 camera that uses electronics to open/close the aperture or where the aperture is a part of the light meter; if the electronics go, so will the ability to change f-stops. This is why Beaulieu is popular among advanced S8 users - manual lenses just like in 16 and 35mm. The Kodak camera will feature an all manual lens of that type - any C-mount lens, in fact. 

You can certainly get S8 tape, rewinds, viewers, cleaning supplies, etc. Urbanski Film has the largest amount of such supplies that I'm aware of. 

Hope that helps. 

Cheers! 

Scott

I have only seen photos of one on EBay some time back. I think it was Moscowphoto who was selling it. Lovely lens though and well made. If I saw one today, I would buy it as it is a great investment.

Hi Scott,

I have two pin registered C-Mount Super 8 cameras, i.e.

1. Logmar,

I believe the Nikon R8 and R10 super 8 cameras were pin registered. They did lap dissolves but were so involved almost not worth using.

Very cool, Nicholas. I think the new Kodak camera is modeled after the Longmar, isn't it? That'd be great if the new camera is pin registered! That Vimeo footage shows what an amazing difference it makes. 

Thanks for sharing!

Unfortunately, the Nikon R10 and R8 cameras are not pin registered. They have a stop pin in them for lap dissolves, reverse filming, etc., but it's not a true registration pin. If only! 

I don't think there's ever been a pin-registered Super 8 camera that was mass produced. The Longmar that was pointed out in the previous post is a rare beast; only a little more than a hundred of them were ever built. They did assist Kodak with their new camera though, so here's hoping that pin registration was included. :)

Oh, forgot to mention: There is a company (this'll appeal to your tactile sensibilities, B) that makes reloadable S8 cartridges and plenty of other cool stuff. I'm sure they've been mentioned here before, but I suppose a refresher couldn't hurt: http://www.wittner-kinotechnik.de/katalog/04_filmm/s8_meter.php 

I n any case, the pressure plate is alleged to be vastly superior to Kodak's design and therefore, so it is said, the image is much more stable. You do have to buy film on cores and load it up. Have never used one myself but would love to try it. Maybe someone can speak to that. I'm betting someone here has used one. :)

Hey Scott, Nick, Rob and all :0)

Yeah Soctt, I think I sold that 5008 (DOH!) while preparing for T2S back in 2011 (opens mouth, inserts foot). It's nice to hear that there is a super-8 with pin registration. (The Kodak and Logmar look identical.) Do these cams typically use a kind of side-to-side shutter or spinning disk? Gosh but it would be cool if one had an adjustable shutter angle. Maybe I missed the info in a previous thread reply... Got the Logmar docu up on Vimeo for a looksee. The Canon 814 has a 'variable shutter' whatever that means...

These are noisy little beasts at any rate! Will require a major blimp for sound work. Light enough to fly on a gimbal though! Or drone! Fascinating possibilities. But not for ~2500$!

Bolex made a S8 camera but it only goes to 36fps. And I think you need to wear shiny silver pants with a sweater tied around your neck and 'crocs' to be a totally legit operator of that one...

Any you'uns been looking at the super-8 digitizers? Some cool ones out there. Wonder if any of 'em will work with Resolve's capture mode.

Oh hey, HUGE question, one Scott will likely have some info on: Blair Witch Project, at the end, the 16CP camera drops to the floor and the film pull-down mis-aligns with the shutter causing a smeared image. Or maybe it's the film jumping out of the gate somehow? This is such a BADASS effect, does anyone know how they did it? In-camera, or post? The movie release was before any real digital effects were available to independent film producers so I'm inclined to guess they did it with a projector that would do the same on command and just captured the clip with a synchronized camera pointed at the screen; although, maybe it was just luck? The sound effects to go with it are extraordinary for selling the shot and completing the exceptionally scary climax of the film. Well, scary for me at least. I know you either love or hate that film.


Hope this email finds everyone well.
Peace,
Brandon

Fuji ZC1000 single 8 probably the closest you might find. Empty cartridges and Provia reloads available from Japan. Because of the increased thickness of Kodak films self reloads are somewhat less than 50'. http://super8wiki.com/index.php/Fujica_ZC1000

Not only modeled but also designed by Logmar. Both software and
"hardware". With manufacturing farmed out to undisclosed third
parties. Logmar is also working on a handheld small load under (25lb)
65mm camera with swingout LCD screen...similar to the Logmar.

First clip is a dummy load at 500 fps. Not a scratch on the film nor
damage to the transport. The 2nd clip is Cherry Kino shooting at
200fps. Sounds like a missile. Not for public use around cops. :)

That is great news and makes the new Kodak camera all the more worthwhile. Thanks for passing that along, Nicholas!

Hi Guys,

Dropped the price for both my Kinor film packages. Tons of mags, viewfinders, batteries, et. al. included. Here?s the link: http://www.motifsets.com/gear/

Pretty much everything has a case. I?m in Los Angeles; and shipping just about anywhere would be cost prohibitive so local pick up is best. I?m letting all this go to the first 2k. 

Thanks all,
Kelley Cross

That's awesome -- I want one of those! Have you put anything through there besides a dummy load?

The 2nd clip is actual Kodak Hawkeye surveillance 2 perf b/w film at 200fps
for Cherry's forthcoming feature film.

There a few cheap examples on eBay. But I would highly recommend a CLA by
Richard Bennet of Cinema Engineering. The mag/trandport must be lubed after
every load!

Well, I got one on ebay, and think the PL conversion was done badly. It needs to be recalibrated and collimated, but since there is no info on it anywhere and the markings are really weird, there is no way for the technician to understand what he needs to refer to, which is why I'm asking for help.

We suspect it is a macro lens, but don't understand the markings on it because they don't make sense with the operation of the lens (Probably because the PL mount wasnt calibrated properly)

Info anyone ? Steve , you played with yours yet ? :D

Also, Steve, does your Diopter looks like the one in the attached picture ?
