Super 8 / Super 8mm film sales, processing & transfer packages

Super 8 film (Ektachrome 100D and Tri-X) sales, processing and transfer packages

In 1965, Kodak introduced Super 8 (and Fuji Single 8). It had a clever notching system that told the camera at what ASA to expose the film and the film lab at what ASA the film was shot. With a larger frame size, better emulsion process, and better precision feed process through the camera gate. Add to that the ability to add sound. Super 8 came in optical and magnetic sound varieties with the ability to add an extra sound strip after taking the film. Whereas Standard 8mm film was in fact 25ft of 16mm film that was cut in two at development, Super 8 was provided as a cartridge. This meant three main differences: the camera could be more easily loaded; the pressure plate was not as stable as it was a disposable plastic part mounted inside the plastic cartridge rather than being a metal part of the camera; and it could no longer be used for trick photography (eg. double exposure) as in Standard 8, Super 8 sound film became available in 1973 and ceased production in 1997. A 200ft Super 8 cartridge was also available for a short period of time. In 2005 Kodachrome, the most popular film was replaced by Ektachrome 64T and Kodak shut its last lab. Prior to this, processing was included in the price of a cartridge of Kodachrome 40. Ektachrome 64T has since been replaced with Ektachrome 100D.

Tri-X
Kodak Tri-X, a black/white film, offers finer grain and increased sharpness. Reduced static support allows for a cleaner image throughout the filmmaking process. These films provide the rich blacks and high contrast. It is suitable for general interior photography with artificial light. It can also be used in daylight and is particularly useful for sports pictures taken at regular speed or slow motion in weak light (overcast sky or late in the day). This film is characterized by excellent tonal gradation and sharpness. Ensure that camera and film are kept in a cool/dry place when not in use.
