the newer 10mm and 26mm kern switars (with aperture presets) cover super16mm -
don't know about the older ones. les bosher makes really nice mounts that can
convert almost anything to the bolex bayonet mount - he made me a pretty nice
one for arri lenses. he does conversions too, though they're
The House of Sweet Magic is a great DVD compilation (as has already been
mentioned) - both in terms of being technically a very high quality transfer
from the 16mm, and being a wonderful selection of films.
the 10 films on the DVD are also available to rent from the Harvard Film
Archive, on o
just incase it's useful: the colour space you'll be using for HD video (ie.
inside premiere, after effects, fcp) will be Rec.709. those programs often
don't specify such overtly, and some even convert to RGB or SRGB when you
export, or don't attach colour space information at all. when you

hi federico,
in london, deluxe do 2k and it's possible to get reasonable prices out of them,
they can go right up to the silly end too though. their digital and lab stuff
has recently been separated, so you'll need to go to 'deluxe 142' for the scan.
i recently had about 600' scanned, it cos

hey all,
does anyone have, or have access to, a darkroom with a 16mm rewind? i'm filming
in paris for two days this coming week (tuesday and wednesday) and it would be
really awesome if i could use one. i'd need it on tuesday morning for about
half an hour.
many thanks in advance for any h
i use a dell, it's pretty decent. they do a whole range of full hd monitors,
but also larger so you can have picture-in-picture (being able to see the
full-res video within another frame, say an editing programme). they also do
monitors that come factory calibrated to colourspaces (like srgb)
howdy frameworkers,
in a bid to rationalise my cameras a bit (new flat - tiny!) i'm selling a bit
of kit. at the moment i'm selling off two eclair mags, the 100'/200' versions
for the 16mm acl (a great camera, if anyone has one, and something i'm sorry to
say bye to!)
the mags are on ebay
i would definitely buy one second-hand. you can pick a canon xl1 up on ebay for
$300-$900, and that's the price for the nicer ones.
i'm sure you know, but the timelapse feature on all mini-dv cameras is pretty
crappy, as they're unable to record single frames due to using tapes and
interlaci
yeah you're right brook - i was being at least a little flippant, which is a
stupid idea for an email list. i do think it has mainly terrible qualities as a

and as technology has changed over time, those feelings ar
mike figgis (from these parts) who is famous for preaching the virtues of
digital, wrote extensively about the importance of learning on film equipment.
he argued that the laziness (which isn't essential, but just always seems to
come about) when stock isn't a problem can virtually wipe out an
i really like using letraset directly onto film, though i've never been skilled
enough to hold an entire word with enough registration for it to be visible
over a few frames!
one problem i've encountered: the letraset will rub off (partially at least) if
you put the film onto a spool. i've t
i think i might be one of 'those young kids... with their drugs, cameraphones,

though).
i'd put forward the idea that the automatic bias against 4:3 is for one reason,
and one reason only: DV.

i don't think there's an off-the-shelf solution without potassium dichromate or
permanganate. foma kits use dichromate and ilford uses permanganate. out of
those two, permanganate is considered the safer.
it's also worth saying that potassium ferricyanide might not be any less toxic

hi alain,
i've used epson scanners for this successfully. you need to check the model
(mine's a bit old!) but many of them come with an attachment that sits ontop of
the flatbed. it holds the negative, and contains a small downwards-pointing
lightbox that illuminates the neg, which gives pre
