Super 8
« on: September 04, 2010, 01:23:40 PM »

Just back from the Hospice Shop with a Halina Super 8 that includes a sealed Agfa Moviechrome 40, albeit dated 2000 ... It even has the process paid envelope but I'm guessing that won't be valid.

As id B&W, have any FW's processed their own Super 8 before ?

I've once seen a 8mm spiral reel... the thing is massive. I don't see myself loading an entire reel by hand on a big stainless spool! Just to give an idea, the spool was about a foot across, less than half the width of a 35mm spool.

But on the positive side I'd have wrists like Popeye !
