I'm new to this channel! I recently bought a 16mm camera and I'm learning all I can about the format. This channel offers invaluable help to all the people of my generation who didn't have the opportunity to daily work with these equipments, there are so much good information here that it's so hard to find in any other place! You are truly and absolutely AMAZING, thank you from the bottom of my heart! I hope that one day you can make a video about what happens in the laboratories when we send our films to develop and scan, for me the equipment and processes they use are really a mystery that I would love to know! Greetings from Mexico!
Its making me want a K3 and try it.... I started looking on ebay and then I saw, "Item location: Russia" and I was like, well, probably not going to receive that anytime soon
Thanks for all your information. This was a helpful discussion because I've been weighing the pros and cons of each for a project. 17:00 this is true about still cameras too
Great video with a lot of precious first hand experience and insight - as always, Tyler! Well I'm perfectly happy with Super 16, which looks just right IMHO, including that silky texture and halation to get that gorgeous warm glow. Still working hard to gather some cash before I start a project. All the best!
I've been flirting with the idea of 35mm recently. Fundamentally its prohibitively expensive for me at the moment. Also I find the 16mm just looks more filmic and is more reminiscent of some of my favourite 80s and 90s films. I think for independent makers the 16mm setup is a lot more manageable on set. Honestly I'm so grateful the 16mm format exists and is at least somewhat accessible for independent film makers. I love it !
@@PeterConnell90 Yea, I have been working on a bunch of personal 35mm projects and ya know, I kinda gave up and sold all my 35mm gear in 2022. Value of all of it was high and I got out. 16mm is easier to deal with and has a more filmic look. 35mm almost looks digital with a good scan and presentation. It’s almost like you’re spending money on something that is indistinguishable from digital so why bother? Only one of those projects is worth watching or available at this time, if you wanna check it out; vimeo.com/658164874
@@CinemaRepository yeh i know what you mean. I have found that with 70mm too, can almost look digital. There is a sweet spot. I guess 35mm scans back in the day weren't as good so almost looks like 16mm, I'm thinking of cape fear for example or similar. Though the close ups of cilian murphy on 70mm oppenheimer were still incredibly filmic. I wouldn't say no to the opportunity. I'll check out that vimeo link thanks
Any idea on how to get in contact with them? Couldn't seem to find them anywhere on google. Also, what sort of discounts could I expect from them? Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words! Yes I do need to do a lab video. Most of the labs are secretive, that’s the problem.
Thanks Tyler! great one again.

I’m learning a lot from your videos. The last film i shot was in the 70’s. That was regular 16mm. Thank you

This is such an insightful video! I'll be watching a lot from this channel from now on! :D :D
Another cool breakdown!

16mm is a great format, “Spencer” with Kristen Stewart has been mostly shot on Super 16 🤘🏻
Brilliant. Thank you.
Does this work in terms of digital
Amazing your video 😁📸🔥
the best way for shot a movie is film,real cinema is film,digital is only a big tv for home.
Any websites or entities you recommend getting 35/16 short ends or recans from??
Hollywood film company, but 16mm is rare to find anything but new and sealed cans
