Definitely a relative judgement call. For you, this may be a $1k money pit. For The Strokes, it was ultimately a multimillion dollar earning music video. I hope we're all making value decisions for ourselves based on what we know we need and not trying to judge the needs of others based on our ideas of what we think they do or don't need. Not that anyone was doing that.

[@seankelly378]

to the very small amount of people who will care , the original Evil Dead was filmed on 16mm and most of Raimi's student films were made on super 8

[@truefilm6991]

Correct. Many more well known films were shot on 16mm and Super 16. Regular 16 for example: Christopher Nolan's Following, El Mariachi, The Texas Chansaw Massacre. Super 16, too many to mention, but some examples of well known movies: This Is Spinal Tap, Leaving Las Vegas, The Hurt Locker, City Of God, Black Swan, The Wrestler, Blue Valentine, Carol, Jackie, Mother!, Irreversible,.....

[@nicholassheffo5723]

I have the last 16mm Bell & Howell, the 240EE and it is so stable, Orson Welles apparently loved it. You did miss the fact that some older 16mm cameras only use double perforated film and cannot handle single perf like later cameras. Some people actually shave off some sprockets on older cameras to shoot single perf on them, but I am not a fan of that. Other cheap cameras that are great 16mm models include Keystone, the brief early 1930s Stewart Warner and the CinKlox made in Cincinnati, Ohio, some of which do sound 24 frames per second speed. The Canon Scoopic (scoop, like a reporter getting an exclusive story) had models that also took 200ft daylight spools that are no longer made, but some of that film is still out there unopened and would be worth shooting. Other models we should all explore in 16mm include the Admira Electric 16 (maybe the best East Bloc 16mm camera ever made in its size and capacity), Auricon, Berndt-Maurer, Cinema Products, DeVry, Doiflex, Emel, Ensign, Eumig, Frezzolini, General Camera, GIC ETM (France), Ikonoskop, MCM, Morton, Nizo, PLB (also France), RCA (they made the first optical sound camera in 1935), Revere, Texas General, Traid, Vego, Victor Cine Camera (before RCA bought the company), Viewlex, Zeiss and don't forget the Mitchell. Some have lenses that are unique and you cannot get anymore. Look forward to your next 16mm videos and caught other already. Thanks!

[@krisak5645]

Very well done overview. I used to supervise the production facilities at a film school, and they kept six or so Bolex H16's on a shelf for 'special uses' -- meaning they never really got used. When I took over, I checked them out and four of the six immediately blew their spring drives. Swiss Professional (in NY) was able to repair them, but recommended that they be used regularly, so as not to degrade the mechanism. As to sync (or the lack of sync / crystal), how well does it work if you slate the beginning, using double system, and then use the tools in Premiere / Final Cut to keep the tracks in sync? Anyway, a very well informed video.

[@asherhuskinson6815]

Wow, I’m really glad that I found your channel. Your videos are very informative and well done!

[@AntonDoiron]

Nice informative video! I use my dad's old non-reflex Bolex that looks just like yours for the occasional fun retro shoot. I had a newer reflex Bolex with a beautiful zoom lens but I sold it on ebay after filming my 16mm film day video. I thought I was done with 16mm due to cost and difficulties with exposure and noise but I'm still doing it. Anyway, I've had some success syncing sound but you have to chop up and adjust things. Shorter clips work better. The biggest problem with dad's old Bolex is the age made it shoot lower frame rates than 24fps and I'd look at the results at 24fps and everyone looked all fast like an old movie. My advice to Bolex users is to use the frame counter and run 10 seconds of an old exposed junk film roll and divide by 10 and see what your average frame rate is. increase the rate until it matches 24fps. Even if it's a bit faster, it's better than too slow.

[@2mikelim]

One cam that I like is the Victor turret model, mod 3 I think. It's like a lightweight 70dr that's so portable and more compact. But it used only double perf 16mm film which isn't made anymore. So the teeth on one side of the sprocket gear must be filed flat to use current stock. I remember the pulldown claw was only on one side so no problem with that.

[@mitchkraus1715]

I once got to shoot on the Krasnogordk-3 and I think it will be one of my favorite memories.

@@baloup571 I'm not too sure the difference between the 2 and the 3, but I know the 3 is more popular. They're cameras that a lot of beginners pickup because they can be found for cheap and also you can get some great lenses for them because some have an M42 lens mount that lots of older 35mm photography SLR cameras had! They're soviet made cameras though and were made somewhat cheaply and can give you some problems because of that. It's not uncommon to have film jam or scratch with them, but you can get some great results as well!

[@herbmontes]

I would like to mention somethings about the Kodak K100 and Cine Special cameras. I have owned both of these and they are very fine cameras. The main problem with these are the lenses that come with them. For some reason Kodak used a lubricant on them that cause the focus rings to seize up. This made focusing difficult. The same would happen with the exposure adjustment. The problem is not as big with the K100 since it is a C-mount camera and you could change the Kodak lenses for another brand. I have even mounted a zoom lens with a reflex finder on my K100. Not so with the Cine Special. This camera is great for doing animation and special effects work. But uses a proprietary S-mount lens system. Only Kodak lenses come in S-mount and have the lubrication problem. Fortunately I had a rare C-mount to S-mount adapter so I could use any lens on my Cine Special.

I recently scored a B&H Filmo 70a from eBay for $28. This cam is from circa 1927 and has a Taylor Hobson Cooke lens. This thing is so old it only does 8 and 16FPS And I think it also pre-dates C mount lenses (Not 100% sure) But the thing works GREAT mechanically I tested it with some 16MM leader lying around and it seems to work great! It will do until I can afford a Bolex H16. Hopefully I didn’t buy something “TOO old.”

[@philip4658]

[@JoshSJoshingWithYa]

@@AnalogResurgence Awesome, thank you for the reply! I was trying to figure out how to create an older anime aesthetic using traditional animation methods, and inking/painting cels was easy enough to figure out. Transferring those cels to 16mm film (which was commonly used for TV anime until the 2000's) was the head-scratcher for me. Now I know to invest in a Bolex camera and jerry-rig it to point downwards to capture the cels frame-by-frame! Of course, I could have just used filters and animate digitally, but nothing beats the real thing, in my opinion. Plus I can frame and sell the cels afterwards as art pieces! And I could maybe even sell the film itself!

[@domgrimard]

Would you use cctv lenses on a Bolex? Like the sony 12.5-75mm, would i end up with vignetting? I’m having a hard time finding out what works and what doesn’t.

[@AnalogResurgence]

You can and there are a bunch of those old CCTV C-mount lenses out there, but they can give you some unexpected results because of their quality. I own a couple, but haven't had a chance to test them out too much. I'm not too sure about vignetting, but they should cover the whole frame. I know because they weren't really designed for film cameras that they won't produce high quality results and can be softer then normal cine lenses. Still they're usually a pretty cheap investment and if you're looking for some simple lenses for a bolex they can be a good place to start.

[@AnalogResurgence]

The best thing to keep in mind is if you're storing the camera for long periods of time, make sure not to do so with the motor wound up! If my Bolex has no film inside and is sitting in the case for a few months I always make sure that it isn't wound up at all.

I'd never call Eyemo an "amateur" camera, it was used by photojournalists extensively during the war before becoming the key crash camera for Hollywood (where it still is used sometimes). To my knowledge there was never any 35mm camera made specifically for home movie use, that simply wasn't a real market until 16mm entered the equation.

3. The 2 can't take daylight spools.

[@truefilm6991]

Yep, the Krasnogorsk-3 is much better because of the 100ft daylight spools and if it has an M42 mount, the choice of lenses (already comes with a good zoom lens) and the possibility of easy Super 16 conversion. If a trusted ebay seller says it´s in working condition, it is. Buying K-3 is always a bit of a gamble. They can have some issues such as poor registration (jitter), but even this can be fixed in post. I know a dozen or so film fans that own a K-3, including myself, and they are all very pleased with it.

[@outthefryinpan]

Im confused about loading the film. In another video, you said to be super careful not to open the reel canister, but with the amateur 16mm kodak film you can?

[@AnalogResurgence]

Many of these cameras take 100ft rolls of 16mm film. Those rolls are on metal spools that protects the film from being completely exposed in the light so they’re safe to load in subdued light outside of a darkroom. Larger cameras take 400ft rolls which always need to be handled in complete darkness because they are just wrapped around a plastic core.

[@outthefryinpan]

@@AnalogResurgence Got it! Thanks!

[@Otokichi786]

I've read in old camera magazines of the 1970's that "Beaulieu" was pronounced "BOWL-yew.";) My first (and only) Beaulieu was the MCR-8G, a Double 8mm movie camera with an astounding 6.5-52mm Angenieux zoom lens. It produced Kodachrome movies as beautiful as the camera, but back then I was more interested in long lenses for surf photography (As in the Century Precision Optics 650mm f/6.3 lens). Plus, this was in the early 1970's when Double 8mm film was getting hard to find unless it was Kodachrome 25D/40T. So I sold it to a salt-soaked surfer and went looking for a 600mm f/5.6 Nikkor. (But that's another story.;)

[@comeradecoyote]

Since Beaulieu is french, I believe the pronunciation is BO-lee-ew

[@Otokichi786]

Yep, I took Spanish to satisfy the school foreign language requirement. (My older sister was the French speaker.) In retrospect, I should have gone to Japanese language school.;)

[@screamingskull]

It's "Bullyew"

[@ashersmarvelmcocexamplesof450]

Eau in French is water. Its pronounced *Oh*. Just as the word for loved one or sweetheart is *Beau*. It is pronounced as *Bow* (necktie or archer"s). So the close approximation to the proper pronunciation is Bowl-yer.

[@2mikelim]

Why shud I use 24fps when shooting silent? I'd use 16fps to gain a minute more on a 100ft roll. If blurry action is the problem, one can use a cam with adjustable shutter, closing it down so that each frame gets about one sixtieth sec or less.

The K-3 is a non-sync camera so you would experience difficulty in doing that. For perfect sync you would need a more expensive camera or something like a bolex with a crystal sync motor attachment. On the K-3 with longer shots as the motor will drift easier over a long period past a few seconds you will experience sync issues. You might have luck with some sync on shorter shots though.

The k3 will be wild. You would need a Crystal-Sync motor. it's Good for MOS.

@@minarimon3106 For 16mm, probably one of the cheapest cameras you can find that’ll shoot sync-speed will be the CP-16 and it’s similar broadcast brethren. These usually go for greater than $1000, so they’re not exactly cheap, but they’re still thousands of dollars less than most other crystal-sync cameras like Arris or Aatons. Super 8 is nearly impossible to find a crystal-sync camera for, Pro8mm at one point used to sell some for like $4000 but most of these (if not all) have been discontinued, so expect to pay an arm and a leg for crystal-synced Super 8 if you can find one at all.

Is there a 8mm vs 16mm
