Waterlogged Camera Creates Magic...

For amusement only. Kind of why I like time-lapse and time-exposure Super-8 filmmaking so much, you never really know what you will get until the film is developed.

The camera in the article is a digital still camera, but the story is fun nonetheless...

That's why super 8 is so great. Accidents can always be experimented with if it's in the developing process or the shooting of old film. You don't know until the end.

I agree reg8mm. Every frame of Super-8 film can be a discovery. When I shot the Alphabet Song with Time-Exposure, it took me over 50 hours of filming to get through one 3 min & 20 second cartridge of film!
