Eumig C3R & C3M Double 8mm Camera Review With Test Footage 

Thanks I love the way they look as well especially the C3R. Happy shooting!

Thanks for watching!

hartelijk dank!

You got yourself a great camera, glad it helped Happy shooting!

No doubt, great shape both of these most definately lucked out! Love those old Nizo 8 I don't come across those that often and when I do they are a pretty penny one of these days..... Good luck with those brownies they usually turn out to be pretty durable. Thanks for watching, cheers and happy shooting!

Hey there, on the one I showed it has a mask that switches in the view finder. On my other c3m which was my first it does not have the mask. To compensate for the parallax you block your shot towards the lower left of the viewfinder if you are 3-5ft away your subject should be nearly out of frame on the lower left hand side. Any closer a string can be used to grab a direct line from your taking lens. The inner wheel on the fps dial is if you are using nd filters. You would set it according to which filter you used and the internal light meter would compensate for it. I will work on the manual uploads there is a few I have that I want to put up including this one. Hope this helps out happy shooting!

@@tiomannysworld6835 is the mask transperent orange ? I have an orange piece of plastic with a hole that falls in front of the viewfinder when i knock it around. I assumed it was some piece of negative film, but maybe its a mask that has come loose

@@iversobakk yup that's it.

Not stupid at all. For standard 8 you can load the roll in subdued light this is because it comes on a daylight spool. It will expose about 2 feet of film. Back in the old days they would load the reels with a bit more film for this very reason. It can be loaded in a darkroom or a changing bag to give you a little bit more footage. Thanks for watching and happy shooting!

Thanks bud Late on reply but I will be making the manual available along with some others soon. Thanks for watching and happy shooting!

Not to much to choose from here in the states Film photography project 500 and 100 negative stocks are nice, foma from Bh or adorama. In Europe there are many more choices on8mil, gauge, widescreen centre to name a few. John Schwind closed shop at International film brokers sad to say he had a good variety but no more. The lenses on the C3R are nice and have a good contrast for higher Asa films. If shooting indoors you will need a fair amount of room between your camera and the scene if shooting wide open hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

Yup In the Old Pueblo! That's great, I'm shooting some foma 100r DS8 in my quartz. Good times, thanks for watching and happy shooting!

Hey there Zac, the Bolex H8 had a 100ft reel capacity and had excellent optics available for they're system. As for the C3M it does use the 25' spool maxed out. I think that Bolex was one of a few cameras that accepted 100ft reels, the only other one I can think of at the moment is the Pathe Webo series. I am a fan of this Eumig line. If you do end up getting one let me know how you dig it! Thanks for watching and happy shooting!!

hmm ok the contrast is probably underexposure and the focus....if your using the c3m make sure the dial on the left should be set to infinity which should be the dial is set clockwise till it can't move. On the C3r each lens has its own focal length where your iso defines the field of focus. This is true for both except the c3m has the macro option with the the aforementioned dial. F2.8 is about 6.5 ft at f16 you will have focus at about 2.5ft. Shooting with primes is a bit more involved. So for 50 yr old film you want to overexpose about 5 stops depending on how it was stored will determine how well it responds. Solid rule of thumb is 10yrs=1stop overexposed. Hope this helps thanks for watching and happy shooting!
