it’s like a time machine
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: sascha
I grew up with my dad shooting super eight movies at home, and of course, watching them projected, of course without sound. I still have his super eight camera and carrying case proudly displayed in my home. I’m so excited to use this new camera and got it on pre-order, which was delivered last week! My only serious request, is when are you coming out with fun carrying cases? I want to protect it and take it places, but want a case worthy of at least what the real super eight case look like, maybe more compact? Maybe in a fun range of bright colors? Anyway, it really is like a Time Machine that takes you to the past, but keeps you very much in the present. Thank you!

Nostalgic dopamine hit
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: Marcus T.
I learned to film with super8, the film was expensive, the editing was difficult and destructive, but i loved it all the same. This camera is terrific teaching tool for my kids, they learn a little filming discipline, a starting point for framing and coverage that are far more important than getting mired into focus, exposure and lensing.
If it was to go again, I'd like an optical zoom, i'd like to be able to put audio in, i'd like to use the shoe on top to mount a light maybe. and If we're going to have the vintage settings, i'd like to hear a fake whir of film to know i'm shooting.
It's fun to use if you're 6 or 60

A fun toy
on October 7, 2025

Everything working as it should so far. Probably goes without saying, but not really for the video professional, as most of the effects can be done better in Premiere or After Effects. Seems well-made, especially for the price. I would recommend it for the hobbyist.

I really like this camera
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: David M.
I really like this camera — the look and feel are spot-on, and it works great right out of the box. It gives that authentic Super-8 retro vibe with modern digital convenience. The footage has that nice grain and warmth that makes everything feel cinematic.
The only thing I’d add is maybe a stabilizer or gimbal option — handheld shots can get a bit shaky, especially when moving around. Otherwise, it’s a fun, creative little camera that nails the nostalgia perfectly.
5/5 for style and simplicity.
