This seemingly outdated format has been, and can continue to be, a stepping stone for aspiring filmmakers who desire to shoot on actual film; the medium they grew up on. I cut my teeth on Super 8, moved up to 16mm, and thanks to Craigslist, made the leap to 35mm... all for less than $1000, incl. 5 lenses. Yes, some misguided souls are going digital... but this is just the changing of the guard. Those magnificent old movie cameras are falling into new hands. A 35mm Renaissance is in the offing...
@pH4nTomPL4n3T Really nice to hear that. I find some that shoot digital want film completely removed. It's not good enough that both can co-exist. There is some real hostility out there towards it. Don't know why. Both are different - let them live. I'm still with Super 16mm. That's an amazing jump you made to 35mm.
I'm glad to see support for this format. Without Super 8, there would be no other way to take that first step into the film industry. It’s like a key to a pathway. I just bought a super 8 camera on ebay and a projector and I look forward to experimenting with shooting film. I have seen some really good results using S8.
The 7217 was great in Super 8 but this is real exciting! Thank you Kodak for supporting the format. I have an HD camera that I rarely use... will never abandon S8 and 16mm, there is just nothing like it-
Long live super 8.

err.... what would one do with super 8 negative? you can't really print onto a positive anymore
would you scan it in and invert the colors? seems like a bit of a pain...
