lonelyboy Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted December 14, 2011 How do I put a length 400 (whatever length that may be) in my Leica? The normal way to use motion picture film in still film camera is to load it into 135 cartidge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Valentine Posted December 14, 2011 Share #5 Posted December 14, 2011 Film will never die - it becomes a "super-niche" in the global market like so many other thing became in the past. Frank Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messsucherkamera Posted December 14, 2011 Share #7 Posted December 14, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Tired of hearing "Film is Dead?" I have found that hearing the uninformed repeat ignorant and inaccurate statements regarding film is indeed quite tiring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamiji Posted December 14, 2011 Share #8 Posted December 14, 2011 It is available in 50' rolls! Break out the bulk loader and be happy. They only mention: 35mm 400 Core 8003675 35mm 1000 Core 8003667 35mm 2000 Core 8003741 Thats 400, 1000, and 2000 ft rolls.... A little large for most bulk loaders.... The only 50 I see is the ISO, ISO 50.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted December 14, 2011 Share #9 Posted December 14, 2011 You are right, swamiji! When I went to the link I could swear it had pop-ups for various products, including the one in question and it was available in 50' rolls. By the tech data, I was so very wrong. Thanks for the correction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth3kpl Posted December 14, 2011 Share #10 Posted December 14, 2011 Measure a 36 exposure length between two nails in a bench, darken the room and load away. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobey bilek Posted December 14, 2011 Share #11 Posted December 14, 2011 They only mention: 35mm 400 Core 8003675 35mm 1000 Core 8003667 35mm 2000 Core 8003741 Thats 400, 1000, and 2000 ft rolls.... A little large for most bulk loaders.... The only 50 I see is the ISO, ISO 50.... That is why I have a bench winder and darkroom. I suppose I could spool off 100` lengths. If this is motion pic film, it has a backing that needs to be removed in process and labs set up to do it. I would probably make a mess in my darkroom.

CalArts 99 Posted December 15, 2011 Share #12 Posted December 15, 2011 I happen to use Vision 3 single perf 100' loads in my 16mm Eclair ACL (converted to super 16) with Zeiss primes. It's an amazing and wonderful emulsion. Don't forget that Kodak sells a lot of motion picture film and their emulsion technology often gets passed on down to 35mm still camera film offerings. The new Portra 400 emulsion comes from their Vision 3 technology. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StS Posted December 15, 2011 Share #13 Posted December 15, 2011 I can get a feeling then. The new Portra 400 (and 800) banished my M8 to the shelf. Stefan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphoenix Posted December 15, 2011 Share #14 Posted December 15, 2011 KODAK: KODAK VISION3 50D Color Negative Film 5203/7203 This is terribly ambiguous. I'm surprised their marketing people allowed this ad." Film is dead; so are we" is not the message they are trying to send. I hope they change this ad.

Film is dead; so are we" is not the message they are trying to send. I hope they change this ad. I think KODAK message is related to the rumors regarding their bankruptcy. On my own understanding also it's like a reverse message of "featuring KODAK VISION3 50D Color Negative Film, Who said film is dead?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my own understanding also it's like a reverse message of "featuring KODAK VISION3 50D Color Negative Film, Who said film is dead?" It may be, but the message is in the way it's received by the potential customer. Unfortunately, I see it as a negative message as far as Kodak is concerned. I don't want that. I want to keep being reassured that Kodak film is available.:) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

plasticman Posted December 15, 2011 Share #18 Posted December 15, 2011 Is it available for Leicina cameras? Otherwise... Otherwise what? I don't really get your point, Jaap. I know you've virtually eliminated all discussion of every other camera brand on the digital forum, but the introduction of a totally new film? How is that not of interest to members participating on the film forum? As others have mentioned, the new Portra originated as motion picture stock.

stunsworth Posted December 15, 2011 Share #19 Posted December 15, 2011 Otherwise what? I don't really get your point, Jaap I imagine the point is that you can't just use movie film in a stills camera without taking special precautions when processing it.

Or even read as far as Jaap's smiley if you hadn't previously realised that he was making one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
