well i did some reasearch and for those that care this seems to be the weapon of choice: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=628&item=3847465816&rd=1#ebayphotohosting

i guess spike lee used it a bit in his film 'get on the bus' which i probably should see, but haven't.

^ he makes a good point, but if u want to shoot film, 8mm is cheaper compared to 16, but in the long run the bills will add up for film, developing, and digitizing if ur goin to work with it on a computer.


Why don't u just go suck a fuck!.....'Oh really!? Tell me how exactly does one suck a fuck???

Your such a fuck ass! 'Did you just call me a fuck ass?! lol' *little girl comes in and says* Whats a fuck ass?

I'm paying $30 for a 3 min (50 ft. roll) But it lasts... Just be selective with what you shoot, which I think everyone does while shooting film....
