Canon 1014XL-S and Expired Kodak Vision 7274 200T | Home Processed & Scanned | Filmboy24 

Thank you, Rene!!

Thank you, Cecil!

Thanks, Mike!!

Thank you, Nicholas! There has definitely been some great films shot with old(er) vision stocks. You're spot on about cutting down film, Kodak never actually manufactured "Super 8" stock specifically, it was always cut from 35mm.

@@Filmboy24 And sometimes, Kodak updated a stock without renaming it and not just because they were switching the developer (say, EM-25 to EM-26) but just keeping the name not to cause confusion. Let's see what results we both get in upcoming shoots of regular Vision and the like. The Kodak to watch out for limited on for are 7244/Supermatic (no remjet so it was easier to develop on the giant developing machine they sold to various big companies at the time, its their earliest E6 movie film,) 7242 (fading issues, which I think also are on 7241) and you already saw the disaster that is old 7240 tungsten. I'll come top with more such info soon enough.

They certainly do give off a great, vintage look.

Thanks, Christian!! It's definitely frustrating seeing the added "texture" with color grading old film. It's almost as if there's a protective layer over the film until it's graded 😒. I've noticed that everything you alter during the post processing stage, not only alters the image itself, but the grain structure as well. It's a constant battle between acceptable and overdone.

@@Filmboy24 absolutely. Anyway: really great job as always. I love the atmosphere of a fun park during day time.

That's a great idea, Bonnie!! I love doing comparison videos. The biggest issue is finding/keeping an array of cameras and keeping them running. I am certainly always on the lookout for a 310XL, no luck yet though.

🤣

Thanks, Jeffrey!!

That would be awesome! Those things are super rare, would love to find one one day.

Thanks, Mike! One thing I've really come to terms with, processing and scanning my own cine film for the last few years, is that it's never really going to look polished. You are dead on with the scanning step, I really think this has more to do with the look than anything. My scanner is just a middle of the road machine (had the 4K one on order for a long, long time) with less than stellar software. There's not a ton of control over the colors during the scan, so I do 90% of it in post. As simple as this little scanner is, I honestly learn something new almost every time I either scan or render a film. When I look back at some of my early work, the difference is ridiculous. With all of that, I would LOVE to do a horror film from start to finish, all "in house". Maybe one day 🙃

Thanks so much! I've heard so many good things about that camera, just never had the opportunity to shoot with one. Ironically, I have about 20 carts of R50 and R200, as well as a Fujica Z2 but never really messed with Single 8. Definitely on my long list of things to do :)

@@Filmboy24 can’t wait to see a video with that camera, you are a good shooter, and you got a hell of a setup and stock. lol

It's definitely on my "to do" list of videos. Hopefully coming soon!
