When I was in Art School in the late 90s I rescued my dad’s super 8 camera from the closet. For a complete novice this camera proved to be surprisingly user friendly. Shooting at the classic frame rate gets you 5 min of playback per roll if I remember correctly, and you want as much time as possible because the Cost of film and development was definitely what stopped me from using it more often. However back then there was no real alternative for getting that look. Checking now, looks like the cost of film and developing has increased significantly. My advice, if you want to shoot super 8, buy a vintage camera and shoot a couple rolls, the user interface was designed for the average consumer, don’t be intimidated by the lack of digital tech. You can always turn around and sell the camera for about how much you paid if you want to upgrade. Also even though you will probably have the film scanned, track down an old school projector, that’s the best way to enjoy this retro experience. However modern digital is SO GOOD, and you can probably find a filter to make it look like vintage movie film if you really want. Unless you have money to burn, extremely expensive film can only hinder the creative experience.

A cursory glance at eBay reviews tested working vintage cameras for less than $400. It’s difficult to imagine that many customers would be willing to pay the enormous price being asked for this new one. The difference in camera price alone could cover a whole lot of film and processing!

The cost of the camera will prevent 98% of any enthusiast from ever considering it. Not worth the money when the resolution looks so poor at times. A Nikon R10 or R8 would produce a much sharper super 8 image. With the loss of Super 8 stocks like Kodachrome 40 (which was awful for the environment) and Plus-X (the most amazing super 8 stock of all time), this is a never buy for me.

That was kind of the point. Kodak wasn’t marketing this to the average hipster doofus. Why have Christopher Nolan and J. J. Abrams talk it up if they weren’t aiming for the prosumer market? Unfortunately, at this price, only Nolan and Abrams could afford to use it, and the likelihood of that is extremely remote, especially Nolan… As glad as I am it’s finally here, I wonder if it wouldn’t have been better to just let it die. The moment when it could have made the most impact was long past, and there’s been too many expectations this camera has drummed up that it ultimately failed to satisfy.

For this to work, Kodak needs to make the film, processing and scanning more affordable per roll. What gets me is that with modern technology and production line processes, one would think they would have figured out a way to improve it all to make it more affordable. But they haven't. They still rely on old 20th century factory equipment and film processes to carry them through. They are not a company that innovates. They are a modern example of the old Smith Corona typewriter company in a digital word processor age. They have no drive or direction. They have no leadership with purpose. They have no vision. Kodak is a shell of a company. George Eastman would be ashamed.

Having grown up shooting Super 8 movies, I really wanted to have this camera. The idea of shooting on film takes me back in time over 40 years. But is that worth the price?

Save yourself money (film is expensive, developing is even more, and not included with the film) and get a M43 video camera, smear the back element of the lens with a very light oil (the stuff from the side of your nose works well) and shoot away. Voila, instant nostalgia.

B&H clickbait..... tell me one thing B&H actually knew about Super 8 cameras before the Kodak camera release? They're just reciting regurgitated info provided by kodak. Get Pro8mm staff to review the camera instead for a true review -- not by some "camera walmart" kodak distributor. You can't just use "any" vintage C mount lens on this camera as you say. Many vignette at certain focal lengths and the lens must be collimated to the Kodak camera manually by technicians who know what they're doing. At this price, the camera should have a variety of prime lenses if not providing a zoom lens. You can't film everything on a 6mm lens and not all C mount lenses will work. Not allowing the LCD screen to reflect correct exposure brightness and only relying on an exposure meter is antiquated and poor form. All modern DSLR cameras these days display brightness based on lighting for the set ISO. Why can't the kodak camera do that for $5495??

Not shelling out 4.5K for a super 8 camera of any kind. Could never justify it. I guess rich hobbyists and avant-garde types, but here again, for the price, there are cheaper and better options. The digital conveniences are nice, but unnecessary to an experienced film shooter who actually used the format back in the day. You can use a cell phone for a video assist and the audio feature didn't have XLR plugs. I prefer using a separate recorder and a dedicated audio person when I can. I didn't see the ability for it to do single frame. With all of that digital hardware loaded into a camera, a simple programmable time lapse feature would've been nice, especially at that price. On the plus side, the xtal speeds are a great option and the registration on the footage looked rock steady. Still don't know how loud the camera is, which is a consideration for sync sound, especially if you're shooting indoors in a studio. I have a Canon 814AZ that has worked fine for me, just wish I had some projects for it to justify the cost of film and scanning. Still glad to see Kodak is keeping the old format alive for the demands of a boutique market. Just hope it's better built than the Kodak XL55 my dad fell for in 1973. Overpriced piece of junk designed to self destruct when the warranty expired. Let's hope Kodak has abandoned that business practice at least.

I've been following the progress of this camera for so long and while I'm disappointed at its price, the Logmar Gentoo was going to be about the same I believe so it's not too surprising. I think new super 8 cameras are great for rental houses and especially university film programs, since universities by law are not allowed to buy used equipment. And $5500 (x2 or x3 perhaps?) is not that big an expense for a university.

Love how this looks, but.. Like Others have said, I could Sacrifice 1k to 1500, but almost 5,000!? lol, might as well use my Classic super 8 cameras or even my 16mm cameras and just send the film in for digitizing. Yes.. It's expensive if you do it often, but not once in a while for passionate projects. Will this push me to film more often? Hell yeah, but for now I'll just use what I have, or filters in After Effects.

I'd rather buy a used Sony HDV camera that shoots in 24P (which I have) This Kodak is way too expensive. Ironically, I have an old Super 8 camera that someone gave me, so now that I know they still make the film cartridges, I may actually use it one day.

If it was 550 if would make sense and maybe even sell well. But at 5500, with the quality the image produced and only 3mins worth of film (which also costs to develop), unfortunately this might flop

Wow on the price . It’s so expensive because they are not thinking the sales of the product will be very high . My guess anyway.

Is there a built-in microphone? Is there a way to mount an external microphone on the camera?
@BandH
@BandH 8 ай бұрын
There is no built-in microphone. To record audio you'll need to use either the 3.5mm line in or 3.5mm mic in. You can also monitor the audio using meters on the LCD and via the 3.5mm headphone out port. These audio files will be saved to an SD card in the .wav format. An L-bracket would mount an external microphone. >Mark< DigitalFoto Solution Limited MINI L Bracket Handle with Cold Shoe Mounts for Smartphone/Camera Gimbal B&H # DIMINIL: bhpho.to/2qietuV

@@BandH Okay, but how do you hold a microphone and film at the same time without bringing in another person? Seems this would take away the pleasure of using the camera. Can't you guys add some kind of mounting clip or hot shoe for an external mic? Looks like this detail has been missed.

Please add a video on how someone can use a mounting bracket to show the mock up how an external mic can be used so we can visualize this. This is something very important for us to see. It's a necessary feature we must have.

i want this to be a hit with the annoying influencers who don't get film but are doing it because its "a trend" so they buy lots of film to look cool and Kodak has to make more quantity and get stuff like the ability to print color negative to a projectable strip of positive within development like getting prints of photos. and we in the game want disc film to make a comeback so we can use our viewmasters again, but that's neither here nor there. and then the overall goal is for them to realize what's missing to make the magic is that they gentrified everything so they start ungentrifying it willingly so they can have beautiful and meaningful lives which they feel social media stole from them. ALSO HEY GUYS, I'D LOVE TO ORDE FROM Y'ALL AGAIN BUT YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO STOCK MY STUFF AND LOWER THISE PRICES A BIT AGAIN. GIVE MY REGARDS TO JOAN AND ED, THE NEW Z PEOPLE JUST AIN'T WHERE ITS AT FOR ME.

Do you know what else can give you a super 8 look with all the modern conveniences? An Instagram filter. You'd be mad to buy this for the price they are asking. This should be sub 1k in price.
