Films and Processing

For your first (or second or third...) venture into the world of super 8 you should buy yourself a cartridge ot two of Kodak's new Ektachrome 64T (7280) and get out there and shoot your 3 minutes worth. I suggest you buy your film process paid (Widescreen Centre) and you will have it back about two weeks after posting. Once you have seen what sort of result this stock gives you can think about processing your next film yourself in our tank. This won't save you any money, but it will be an achievement if you get it right and of course you can go from camera to projector in less than an hour! (Some people can't even manage that with DV).
All the links you need are here.

Stanley Productions (non process paid colour and monochrome)

Widescreen Centre (process paid Ektachrome 64T)

Super8nl (alternative stocks, bespoke processing and all round fount of knowledge)
