PLEASE NOTE: Dual 8mm
projectors, that can run both 8mm and super-8 / super8 film, tend to sacrifice performance
and film safety. For this reason I have never cared for most of them and will usually not
have any for sale here. This is just my personal opinion. I'm sure there are some good
dual machines but I just prefer not to have to deal with them because of my past
experience with some of them. My only exception will be some of the Eumig sound or early
silent models because they require separate sets of sprockets and film gates for each
format.
Here
is the difference between 8mm and super-8 film.
About the confusion caused by
"Single-8" and "reel adapters":
8mm film started being called standard or
regular 8mm after Super-8 film was introduced in 1965. Single-8 is Fuji's name for their
Super-8 film that was mylar based and in a different style cartridge from Super-8 for
camera use. That is why they had to give it a different name. All Super-8 projectors will
run Single-8 film. Super-8 and single-8 are both the same film format. A projector labeled
Super/Single 8mm will not run the older 8mm film format.
Reel adapters you have heard
about are for allowing super-8 reels, with super-8 or 8mm film on them, to be put on a
1/4" 8mm spindle on a dual-8 model projector that is designed to run both film
formats; NOT to be used on just any 8mm projector so you can try to run super-8 film on
it. You cannot run super-8 film on a regular 8mm projector, regardless of which kind of
reel it is on.

Tips For Trouble Free Projection
Many of the films offered on this site are Like New or
in Mint condition. As such, especially with black and white film, they can be very dry. If
they are not lubricated, depending on your projector, they can not slip properly when
going through the gate and may clatter or the image may even jitter. All films, especially
new condition or green prints, need to be lubricated for optimum performance. You can use
GooGone as a good film cleaner but it does not add any lubrication. On my LINKS page you can go to
FILM-TECH to buy FilmGuard to clean, lubricate and protect your prints. After the film
cleaner has completely evaporated, it would also be a good idea to polish and lubricate
them with a silicone treated cloth. I have some flannel silicone treated cloths on my MOVIE SUPPLIES page. Dirt can
build up on the guide rails that can also cause this problem. You must always keep the
film gate and pressure pad of your projector clean and polished. I clean my film gates
often. I saturate a Q-tip with FilmGuard or GooGone to scrub off any hard dirt on the
rails. It's always a good idea to add extra leader to the beginning of each reel also.That
protects the film during threading and allows you to use a permanent marker to label it. |
