Summer Downeast in Maine | 4K Super 8 film on Kodak 50D, 500T 

I hope the 200T turns out well. Though remember, these cameras shoot film, not tape.

Thank you, and thanks for watching !!

Thank you !

@Sudeep Moharana are you Indian?

@@existentialcrisis9757 yes

Most likely 500T

Thanks so much! Yes, this is all manually exposed on the canon 814xls.

Thank you !

I shot 3 rolls but only 2 completed for this. The other roll was about 3/4

Thank you. No stabilizers were used. All handheld with some intentional shake and some unintentional (mostly the driving shots)

@@RyanNavazio awesome! Well I have a Super 16 modded K-3, which already has some more weight and I know how hard it is getting smooth handheld shots, especially when it's not a wide angle. Really great work. The Kodak neg stocks look gorgeous.

500 T for both of these. Both Log scanned and graded without adding any additional sharpness so the grain isn't enhanced. Also overexposing by 1.5 - 2 stops

@@RyanNavazio thanks Ryan. Really appreciate the info! Guess I’ll need to give overexposing by 1.5 - 2 stops a go!

One last question! Would you recommend shooting 500T over 200T in overcast conditions and just stopping down? Would that have a cleaner look?

@@_sondnb I haven’t shot 200T myself so I can’t say for sure. Also, remember you’re watching this on RU-vid which uses its own compression that reduces grain/noise. Your best bet is to shoot some tests and decide what works better for you.

Thanks mate! I have shot a bunch of test rolls but yours looks so nice! Haha thanks for the advice.

Thanks!! This was a 4k log/flat scan from pro8mm. Color grade was done by me in FCP.

@@RyanNavazio You did a really great color grade then!!

@@Adrelanine thanks! I was part time wedding video colorist so I’ve had to work with a lot worse 😂😂

Hope this was the motivation to make it happen!

might just have to look if I can get my hand on a camera and a cartridge of film

I always use the 85 filter.

24 - thanks!

24 - thanks!

Always 24 or 48…

All of the footage is manually exposed using the canon 814xls light meter. The shot at .09 is on 50D using the macro lens feature on the 814xls probably at f2.8-f4. Any of the lower light shots are 500T

Thank you! It is graded straight out of the scan.

You can use an 85B filter. This will knock the ISO down to 320. Most super 8 cameras have this filter built into it. I’ve shot 500T in daylight (with 85B filter) purposely overexposed it by 2 stops, still got good results.

I don’t think you have manual control over your exposure with that camera and I’m pretty sure it can’t read the asa value on the cartridge so getting a proper exposure with 500T might be tricky. Are you planning to shoot in low light ? If not I would go with the 50D or the 200T. That camera should be able to properly expose both those stocks. Just use the 85 filter on the 200t

Wow I had no idea, thanks for that and mostly daytime but I did wanna mess around and test it in low light. I’ll play it safe and go with the 50D, I appreciate it

Thank you ! Yes always 24fps on this channel (or 48) good luck with your film and send it my way when it’s done!

@@RyanNavaziodo you think 24 is significantly better quality than 18 or only a bit?

@@seand5517 frame rate doesn’t effect quality really it’s just an aesthetic choice

Really confused me with this comment.

I’ve never actually seen this happen before I shot this…not really sure! I’ve ran plenty of film through the same camera since and not seen this happen…

@@RyanNavazio I read that if you open the cartridge door mid way through filming it can cause light exposure maybe that caused it ?

@@YungTricky I’ve done that before to get light leaks on purpose but they never looked like that…

@@RyanNavazio very strange I guess you got really lucky with this one, that’s the beauty of film though every develop comes out different and unique ☺️☺️

50D - If you’re worried about light it’s a safe bet to just go with the faster film. Also…pro8mm offers 250D in super 8 so that could be a good option.

@@RyanNavazio thanks for the quick reply, if you dont mind could you point out a few of the shots here that are on 500 if you remember? thx

@@nick-stefani-personal-work would have to go back and look at the original files to say for sure. But most of the bright daylight is 50d and anything foggy/ evening is going to be 500T. The low sunsets on the horizon are probably 500t as well.

Thank you. It’s a 4k overscan

I don't know anything about Vegas but I assume you're on PC. You could switch to Premiere...

Depends on the light source…

85 filters basically just convert tungsten balanced film to daylight. So if you shot 500T film outdoors in natural light with no filter, the color would be very blue and nothing like your eyes might see. If you're shooting daylight balanced film outdoors you would'nt need to worry about using the 85 filter. The filters are easy to find and should be faily cheap. Hope this helps.

@@RyanNavazio Thanks man! And why would you use an external one instead of using the internal switch?

@@fabriziogiovanardi9066 according to the Internet the internal filters “deteriorate over time” I’ve never had this problem myself. If your camera has an internal one and the camera has been well cared for I would think it’s probably fine…

Thank you! This was 2.5 cartridges

@@RyanNavazio damn, you probably got just perfect shots

Sounds like the cartridge is jammed. You could try to manually break it free.

@@RyanNavazio how woukd you do this?

Yeah once it’s digitized you can run it through any digital projector

@@RyanNavazio thanks

I use PRO8mm but Metropolis in NYC does process it.

yes

@@RyanNavazio OK, 200 or 500 then?

Pro8mm

What??

@@fuckenlucy No tin does not defeat film if and when using 4K as the film, especially this Kodak color negative, is far superior to 4K.

For the most part anything in bright daylight is 50d and anything in subdued light/evening or cloudy days is 500T

@@RyanNavazio These are breathtaking. I’m new to Super 8 and recording dancers in a studio with big windows that face them. . Bright but indirect on a sunny day, fine on cloudy - would you lean 500T?

@@camrynadele Pro8mm has 250D available in super 8 format - I would probably go with that. If not then 500T with an 85 Filter which would be rated at 320 iso.
