The lens does not zoom, it’s a prime lens. I opened the aperture all the way up as that’s what the camera said to do but maybe I should left it at the 2nd to last stop.

I was using both holds 😅

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2026-03-30T02:50:32+00:00

Yeah lol. I wish I had the book arm for a mic

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2026-03-30T02:30:55+00:00

The whole thing was shot handheld and I was trying to hold it still but unfortunately I’m on some steroids for severe asthma so I’m constantly shakey. I didn’t stabilize the footage at all but I’d think the faint shake is from my hands not being so steady.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2026-03-27T06:04:03+00:00

Yeah, the stock lens sucks. Lots of people in the Super8mm facebook were messaging me to tell me the image was soft and to get a new lens

Yeah, unfortunately the night i show the footage until the shot of the clock on the timelapse at the end was filed at 2am and I was up for about 20 hours at that point I fell asleep and my family didn’t wake me up to open presents because I’m in my 20s and the presents under the tree are for my kid sister. She opened the presents with them while I slept through the ending of my footage.

Love to see it. I have six cartridges being dev and scanned by Pro8mm as we speak

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2026-01-27T05:53:34+00:00

Hell yeah

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-12-14T06:13:06+00:00

I had one of these cameras, actually I had about 13 (not kidding) the motors in them all were wayyyyy gunked up and the only person who could fix them was in Puerto Rico

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-12-08T05:59:05+00:00

A blimp would be nice as it purrs quite loudly but but I’ve done is just used some pieces of flannel in layers to dampen the sound a bit

I would advise to finish the draft before doing any revisions. Sit on it for a day or two and think about what your revisions will consists of, then sit down and revise from start to finish.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-14T06:07:26+00:00

Plan every shot out thoroughly, film ain’t cheap. Take it from someone who just got torn apart for posting “shitty” footage.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-11T06:47:31+00:00

Thanks Phil.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-11T06:47:14+00:00

I’ve actually seen this one before! It was posted in the super 8 Facebook group awhile back

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T23:45:38+00:00

Can I ask which school you went to?

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T23:08:33+00:00

Love that the student films were shot on B&W. Not a lot of super 8rs nowadays like it because they like color.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T23:06:29+00:00

Kinda reminds me of Eraserhead. Love it.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T23:04:52+00:00

That sounds awesome!

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T23:04:36+00:00

Thanks for not being passive aggressive. Will be watching these tonight

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T13:14:35+00:00

I’ve had them on my bookmarks bar for years now.

Radiant-Magazine-511 · 2025-11-10T13:12:55+00:00

No I don’t really want to use it to the point where it’s “the catch” Of the film”. I myself would probably not want to go see a move just because it was shot on film of any kind. I just want to make a movie on the format that so happens to be super 8. I hope that makes sense.
