K-3 Super 16mm Motion Pictures Camera

[fdirector]

Hey all,
just received my 16mm motion pictures camera K-3. Modified myself to Super 16mm (what was extremely easy) and wuala. Of course its not a sound sync camera, but for film student it a GREAT introduction to 16/S16mm film. Perfect for some music vids or footage without sound. Very easy to use. Will post some videos soon.


Thanks for reading

Very cool man, I'm jealous. I've made it a goal of mine to own a S16mm camera at some point in my life. Not particularly because I want to shoot S16mm films (too expensive) but just because they're gorgeous machines and I like collecting cameras.

I just added this guy to my collection a couple weeks ago. It's a Canon 814 Super 8mm camera, and I've already shot a couple small projects on it. Love it.

Hey guys, thanks!)


@Finnegan, it seems that Steven Spielberg played with that camera in childhood. Very cool camera!
PS. S16mm film not that expensive here in London.

I shot this on a converted Super 16 K3 years ago.. I bought a hand crank off Ebay for the hand crank effect..
