Some notes on formats

Fuji, Elmo, Bolex, Bauer. These machines will look better in the future, may well represent the sizes of the films that were more in use: Fuji from the left that uses the exclusive SINGLE 8, followed by Elmo: DOUBLE 8, Bolex Super 8. The format

9.5 mm in the central perforation, the French Pathé, which was introduced in the 20's, was the springboard for many amateurs, first joined and then replaced in the 30 by 16mm and the double 8. Some rare fans worldwide are using it today.

The Kodak 8mm (double 8): was nothing more than a 16mm film with the pace of drilling twice the normal 16mm. 7.5 meters long. after being impressed by one side (ie 8mm) was to be in a slightly darkened room, open the camera and turn the tables up spool to impressed with the other side. In developing the workshop arranged to cut the foil lengthwise, then paste the two pieces to obtain a good fifty feet of 8mm in size, being projected that lasted about 3 / 4 minutes.

The Kodak is a super 8 film cartridge containing a 15 m long. coaxial with the coils and the pressure built. This format is much more practical (no longer had to handle the film) created by Kodak in the mid-'60s, revolutionized the way of filming so it was possible to turn even the less experienced good movies ever lasting about 3 minutes to load. Now reviewing some "home movies" after 30/40 years you will be astonished by the excellent definition and color rendition maintained.

The proposed single 8 of Fuji in the same period, was a film similar to the super 8 mt lunga15, also closed in a cartridge having the coils overlap, but without the pressure that was in the camera. He did not have much luck though technically ... I think the best super 8 cartridge.
While you had to shoot or allows choosing one or the other system, both of which could be projected with the same projector super8.

omit when other formats amateur who did not have great distribution. I will only say that the 16mm was projected in small halls, churches, schools, then the prerogative of semipro cinereporter or advanced amateurs. The 35mm, however, was the true CINEMA.
