Sagres Super8

[MREVANURY]

Hello,

I'm not familiar with a Weston Master IV. It must be an analog meter. Much like the one I use. I know it's been three years but do you remember how the Beaulieu's "auto iris" matched up with your Weston readings? What are you doing now? Have you entered the "digital video" scene or is image making just a pastime? Like I said, you've got the best looking footage I've seen from a Beaulieu. A shame if you're not pursuing it.

In any event, take care and do what feels best in life!

Wow! This is the best looking footage I've seen shot with a 4008ZM4! Did you use the internal Wratten 80A for color balancing outdoors? The exposures are right on the money and when you can do that with a Beaulieu that lens looks great! Nice and sharp, good color, and excellent exposure! Did you use the auto iris or switch to manual after getting a reading? Maybe a light meter? Thanks for the inspiration!

@MREVANURY Hi, thanks for your kind comments. Yes, I did use the internal wratten filter for color balancing outdoors. Exposures were done using a light meter, a plain weston master iv. The lens used were the original Schneider lens and also experimented with two 35mm Nikorr lens from the f-series. Namely the 24mm,105mm.

Unfortunately I haven't filmed anything else with the Beaulieu camera...

im loving this clip.. I just got my first rolls of vision2 that I wanna try with my Beaulieu 4008 ZMII.. I'm still figuring out how to rate the stock though..

What did you do?

Did you rate them at 200 or 125 ASA? And did you remove the filter key of the beaulieu to put the filter in place or did you use an external screw on 85 filter?

thanks, great little film

@gtrashfilms

Hi, thought I'd give my two cents about rating film. The 200T stock is rated at 125ASA outdoors simply because the 85 filter has a factor of 2/3rds a stop. Most Tungsten stocks will have a lower EI outdoors than indoors because of this. The film package should tell you the Exposure Index of any film stock. Indoors or out. Hope this helps.

Peace

Wow that's really beautiful. What ASA had you the camera set on? 200 or 135? And did you use a orange 85-filter to compensate for the films tungsten balance? I'm about to do a series of super8 films but can't decide on to use Ektachrome 64T or 200T.

Nice Work!! I have a Beaulieu and a kodak 400t to be tested soon.

Qualidade de vida...

[brokenflashlight]

one more question: did you do the telecine transfer yourself? looks sharp.

[salvasmr]

Hi brokenflashlight, the telecine was done at the Widescreen-Centre in London. You can google them up. There are only two houses in London that I know offer this service. Them and Todd-AO lab.

Este video está espectacular!

Grandes Férias!

salvasmr captaste a essência de tudo!

Parabéns a todos

[brokenflashlight]

wow. very beautiful. what size zoom do you have on that thing? that pull-out shot of the beach was especially nice.

[salvasmr]

Hi Brokenflashlight, the lens used for this shoot were: Schneider 6-66mm, Nikor 28mm and Nikor 75mm both with a c-mount adaptor (they are 35mm lens). The pull out shot, was smoothly done with the electric motor on the Schneider lens!

Hope this helps!
