Nice looking car.

Be careful when taking this lens to some countries. I went to Russia in 2022 to photograph hot models, I got this lens confiscated at Moscow airport. Freaking bastards. I paid 3000$ with adapter for Pentax 67. Russians guys came with dogs and special forces to block me and started to measure. Obviously their method of measuring were false they just put so close to rear element to it was screaming radiation but once they were like 15cm it was normal , they didn’t respected measuring protocol and when I requested the manual protocol they said it’s too secret. Haha top secret my ass. Received answer from them , because they send the lens to the lab. Answer « must be buried immediately, extremely dangerous for public health » . Yeah my ass , sent to Ukrainian war that’s what they meant. But I agree it’s a highly radioactive lens , be careful

Wow, that drone was unexpected! Like some sort of time traveler.

Neat, thank you!

Thank you for this video on how to use the 3A for panorama. I was wondering something. On my 3A special, the red circle is far away from the winding crank. Instead of using 1,3,5,7... Could I use 2,4,6,8? Video of my 3A special is in my channel. Thanks! Jason

Do you have any photos taken this way? I'd love to see the results. Hope all is well!

Looks nice, hope all's well mate

Thankfully the double-8 cine film is again available. Enjoyed your home movies, especially the gardening part, but liked the modern age drone flights being filmed with a 80 year old kodak camera. Wish George Eastman could have seen that, or even guessed his miracle would still stir people's imaginations today. Thank you.

Thanks to you and your video I have managed to test my Kodak No. 1 autobiographic Junior. Everything has become much clearer to me with your explanations. Thank you very much!

loading the camera would be more useful...

Thank you for a really good advice, on how to once again be able to use Kodak 3A cameras, I have just bought a 3A through ebay and waiting for it to arrive. I also appreciate that you sacrificed a roll of film to do teach us..

Can one charge batteries directly from 220V mains from the 28V charger?

Hoping you will reply as it is an older video. Nice one! Do/did you leave the Ektar on your Kodak or did you remove it everytime you were done shooting?

我也有一个台bolex b8 ,但是没有胶卷

Hello and good video. I have the Revere 88 8mm camera . Im looking forward to using it . To buy film these days for 8mm crank cameras is called Fomapan r100 8mm film.

Where can i buy film?

Cool need Help i have Kodak 8 Model 25 cine camera where can i buy film will do video on my Telescope video thanks for reading Drone in old movie Nice hahaha :) yes UFO from the 1930's, hahaha :) lol

Muchas gracias!

Holgamods makes 3d printed hub adapters to use 120 center of the back.

I've got the Model 25 and I'm having trouble loading it. Any chance you could post a video of how to load the camera?

Thanks, but I cannot help asking: why is there a shoe on your table?!!!

Is the camera in usb mode: Mass storage or PTP?

I have the German version of the HMV 109: The Electrola 109. It's exactly the same. Mine dates from '25 or '26, with the original Electrola "globe" logo decal.

Hello! Thank you for your video. What film do you recommend for the 3A? Thank u!

Wow, this is amazing! I've also got a B8L, but the last film I shot was about 1980. I didn't know you could still get the film. It must be useful having faster films to use..

Need help figuring mine out

www.chickenguard.com

where did you buy this at?

Where can I purchase a reasonably priced globe?

I have an almost identical model to this - but mine doesn't have the automatic turn off and the break is on the left hand side.

Just wondering if the chicken guard is still working???

and can you tell me where to get it

can i use any 8mm film

Hi - can you make adapter spools for me? I just bought the camera and would really like to use it. I do not know my way around a hacksaw. What would you charge? Thanks

How come your door opens and closes so much faster then mine??

To make the adapters you need two spare 120 plastic spools. Take one of the spools and load it in the camera and measure the gap that's left to fill (make it a couple of mm shorter than the space so it will fit in). Cut the reel with a junior hacksaw and then insert a large paper clip bent over down the side, secure this with electrical tape. Then put this on the end of a normal sized spool for your take up spool, and another on the film spool. I'll do a video when I have a little spare time.

They worked pretty well, but there must have been some light bouncing around inside and this showed up in places on the film. I've now put a piece of thin black cardboard (artist board) in the gap left above the film, using black electrical tape to stick it down. Haven't had a chance to try it since, will let you know how I get on.

Nice video. I'm glad I found it. How do the pictures turn out? Are they framed well? And can you explain how you made the adapter? Thanks.

I dig it! ;-)

hi, i just found a bolex M8 cine 8mm projector, but do i need to do anything to it to make it run smoothly from the mains?

Hi Mike, I didn't realise it was you at the time; is there anything else interesting coming along this summer?

I may have been there at the same time Mike

I now exclusively use the Pocket Light Meter app on my iPhone to take light meter readings for just about everything. Set the app to 100ASA and set the speed on it to 1/40th (shutter fully open,18fps) - you can actually see the scene on the iPhone and the app gives you the correct aperture. You can tap on various parts of the scene and the app takes the light reading for that area and the aperture adjusts. If you half close the shutter, just adjust the speed to 1/80th sec. Hope this helps.

Hi Nate, I have mine set so that the "15" mark on the inner ring lines up with the "18" (fps) mark on the outer ring (I run the camera at 18fps as that is what my projector runs at. Having said that, I came to this setting by using a light meter set at 100ASA and 1/40th second (close enough to 1/43rd second shutter fully open at 18fps), and then compared the camera against the light meter, adjusting the camera until they agreed. More in the next post, running out of characters!

Hi, I have a B8L as well and wondering how you shot the 100D film without over exposing since the built in meter is meant for the older, lower ASA film stocks? Were you able to just shorten the shutter angle or did you shoot mainly at f 16- 22 ? Did you use ND filters? What frame rate/shutter angle/ f stops were you using? Your film turned out great and I already ruined 1 roll by over exposing, so I want to try and avoid that this time. Thanks a lot!

I’m always impressed when people methodically take dosage rates at various distances-that’s how to do it right. You got the complete package, with what looks to be an original wartime box. You can determine the production date of the lens using this code: where C=1, A=2, M=3, E=4, Y=0 etc. EA= 1942. EE = 1944 etc.

Good to see a ruler used with a Geiger counter...dosage is all about distance.

Hi spangleJ, it looks as if the ASA ruled against Clearview on all three counts rather than for them. All I will say is since buying this stove I've stayed in many country rental cottages and the non-Clearview (ie cheaper) stoves are without exception inferior to Clearview. There is always some problem with the non-Clearview stoves; tricky to get going, blacken the glass, poor quality, not a good view of the fire, lack of control, the list goes on. Save a few quid or buy the best.

Hi Tore, thanks for the positive comment, I have another video where I do further tests on the Aero Ektar if you would like to take a look.
