Super 8 Newbie

[emmettu2]

Hi,

I recently bought an old 2nd hald super 8 film camera. It's a "Revue Cockpit S/8".

I would love to be able to shoot super 8 films but I really don't have a clue where to begin. Is it just a matter of buying film, shooting some shots, and sending it off to kodak to be developed? And then I would just need to buy a projector to view these films? Or would I need something else as well? Is it a special kind of projector? Where could I buy one?

Thanks loads,

Emmett

ok. If you just want to have fun, yes, you just have to buy some rolls, use them and send them to kodak. Then you'll need to put them on video ( a lot of stores offer this service) or just use a super8 projector. You can find old projectors in some photo stores, or just go on ebay.com . Later, when you will have shot a few rolls you will probably like to buy a better camera, to buy some lighting equipment, to put your movies on dv and edit them on pc...
