@rockangel1967 It is. I think I've mentioned this somewhere in the comment section, but 16mm single perforated film is Super 16. This is a modified Krasnogorsk 16mm camera that is able to take advantage of the extra space.
@backuprotection uuuh that is incorect. due all my respect but single perf. film is NOT super16. single perf was for 4:3 and a little space for the sound. bach auricon cameras had built in optical recording. but single perf can be used for 16:9 images. one just uses the additional space which was meant for the audio. again. i can be used for super16 but is originally meant for 4:3 AND optical sound.
Sorry, if there was some confusion, this is what I meant:
Super 16 is a single-perforated, motion picture film that uses the maximum image area available on conventional 16 mm film. The width of the Super 16 mm frame extends an extra 20% into the area normally occupied by the sound track. You need a modified 16 mm camera to accommodate the single perforated 16 mm film stock.
That is the direct quote from Kodak's Motion Picture FAQ.
Hi..Am sunny from India. I just started to research about Cinematography. I have few questions in mind. After shooting, you have done telecine rite. Then you will get the negative. After that I need some clarification. How you transfer this video in to digital format? Is it possible to play this negative in to a tv tape or somthing?
@suneejn1 After you're finished shooting you will need to send the film in so that it can be processed first. Once the film is processed you can have it transferred to dv tape using the telecine process. You can play the processed film through a projector, but you must have the film transfered to a digital format before you can play it on a video system.
Do you have any footage of the k-3 and surf. Im in film school now and im thinking about picking up a k-3 for a surf film i have in mind. i like the quality of the shots form this video. which shots did you use the ND filter on?
@HooliganVanDavis I don't have any k-3 footage of surfing, but I've seen how super 16 looks with surf films and I'm sure it would look great. The only problem is how long it takes to get the film back and how expensive the processing and transfer is. I shot this a while ago, but I know I used the ND filter for the shots from 0:44 to 0:50. I don't remember when else I used the ND filter.
@HooliganVanDavis Hi please look on my page, I use a K3 and another Russian camera Kinor, also I hand process-dont worry about how some of my videos look, they ofter were not colour compensated. I have some surf shots, not POV though.
@akanathan Not sure. I bought this camera modified. You need to switch out the film gate. Disassembling the Krasnogorsk isn't that hard, but putting it back together correctly so that it works is.
Check ebay, I saw a modified Krasnogorsk-3 for $350, from the same seller (sovjak) that I bought mine from. Just keep in mind it's not the camera that's expensive, but the film. 8mm film is a lot cheaper to transfer and much less expensive. It's a different aspect ratio, but has an excellent look. Check out the Canon 814xls or the Bauer A 512 if you want.
this looks like super16 rather than 16mm?

Did you modify it somehow to shoot in wide screen mode ?
MrBrencis 2 years ago
This is a modified Super 16mm Krasnogorsk. Super 16 has an aspect ratio of 1.66:1 which is pretty close to to the 16:9 ratio.

Yeah...I plan on getting a Krasnogorsk soon but would like to modify it for super16.
Maybe I can find someone to modify it for me.
