Super 8 mm Cine Film :: General Info and HIstory
Super 8 mm cine film was introduced in 1965 by Kodak and superceded the existing format , 8 mm Cine film.
It is called 8 mm cine film because it is 8 mm wide. It is the same as standard 8 mm Cine film and the perforations are on the same side. The size and shape of the cone film perforations are slightly different allowing Super 8mm cine film to have an added sound track. Not all Super 8mm cine film has this added sound track. The most popular brand of cine film was made by Kodak but other manufacturers such as Fuji also made 8 mm Cine film.
The kodak Super 8 mm cine film format was supplied in light-proof plastic cartridges containing 50 feet of cine film. This meant that the cine film would be 3 minutes 20 seconds long when run through normal UK standard Cine projectors at 18 frames a second. Kodak also introduced a 200ft cine film cartridge but this could only be used in Kodak Cine Film Cameras especially designed for the job.. The cine film was E6, reversal film but later in the 1990's Kodak introduced negative cine film which was designed to go through a telecine process mainly used by professionals.
The Kodak Super-8 mm Cine film format was able to be loaded in to the cine film camera phenomenally quickly doing away with threading and touching the cine film itself. The super 8mm cine film also had notches in it so that the cine film camera could automatically recognise what the speed of the cine film was. Not all cine film cameras were able to do this. The cine film stock itself was available in different speeds and also as tungsten stock for shooting indoors with normal ceiling lights. Many Cine Film cameras had built in filters to correct for differences in colour balance. One of the main faults with cine film that we see is that the film cine film stock does not match the lighting conditions,typically out door film is used inside resulting in a yellow hue on the cine film
Kodak Super-8 film was silent without a sound track but then in 1972 a super 8mm cine film with a magnetic sound track was released. This cine film was only available in 200ft or more due to the technical problems involved. This 8 mm cine film with a sound track was no longer available after 1997 due to environmental health problems in the production process.
