Super 8 Film Cameras

In 2006 and beyond Super 8 Film cameras use 50 ft. Kodak Super 8 film cartridges with color negative film. Super 8 film is often transferred to video during the professional Telecine process for use in TV commercials, music video and special title and other sequences in television and feature motion picture projects throughout the world. As long as the 50 ft. Kodak Super 8 film cartridge continues to be manufactured, 35 mm motion picture film can be split and loaded in the film cartridges. In 2006 most Super 8 Film cameras used for filming are used, older cameras from the 1960s and 1970s. If well maintained and repaired those older cameras will be able to continue working until motion picture film is no longer available.
