anyone know where you can hire (not buy, too expensive) super8 equipment in the UK?
I think Ive outgrown my shabby old 2nd hand Canon Dart....

Thanks for your help!

Try the Widescreen centre - it's a possibility. www.widescreen-centre.co.uk

surely super 8 gear is cheap enough to make hiring pointless?! if you want I can put you on to a guy who sells Braun nizo super8 cameras here in england for any budget and he tests and guarantees them. his prices stomp lees cameras, marriot, DEFINATELY the widescreen center and even the bristol cine center INTO THE DIRT. I'm sure he could sell you something to keep for the price of any hired gear, which would probably be extortionately priced anyway due to extremely low demand. If you want to contact him reply to this post, then I'll email you his details.

hi AlexfromUK, if you could email me the details in Bristol that would be great. As far as I know the widescreen centre doesnt hire equipment.

my email is: [email protected]
