Proper exposure of K-40

[somersetfilms]

i have a couple cameras that use super 8 film, one is an ansco and the other is a k-mart camera.
i even have one of those old time light bars with the floods. i wanna know if k-40 needs a whole lot of light indoors or works better outdoors in bright sun. my films are a little dark and some scenes are hard to see. Maybe its me not knowing enough about filmmaking. Please help!!

Kodachrome is a wonderful outdoor stock, but will generally come out dark when shot indoors, unless you have all the shades open and sunlight is streaming in.

Ektachrome 125 is a better choice for indoor shooting. If you want to describe a specific type of scene you have already shot, and how it came out, we might be able to better answer you question because we have specific from which to work from.

Do your cameras have exposure meters in the viewfinder that tell you your f-stop?

Just thought I'd bump this topic.
