Vintage 8mm and Super 8 cameras and projectors. Hot, hot, hot.....

It is refreshing to see young people that are interested in film making using the old school formats. We usually sell every old 8 or Super 8 camera and projector we get pretty quick. There are tons of websites and video tutorials that will tell you how to get started if you are interested in making your own film.

Regular 8mm: The standard 8 mm (also known as regular 8) film format was developed by the Eastman Kodak company during the Great Depression and released to the market in 1932 to create a home movie format that was less expensive than 16 mm. Wiki  Kodak ceased sales of standard 8 mm film under its own brand in the early 1990s, but continued to manufacture the film, which was sold via independent film stores. Wiki 

Super 8: In 1965, Super-8 film was released and was quickly adopted by the amateur film-maker. It featured a better quality image, and was easier to use mainly due to a cartridge-loading system that did not require re-loading—and re-threading halfway through. Wiki
