While cleaning the old film cupboard I had a laugh looking at the "cinelarger" (made photo prints from a frame of film), and the "backwinder" (rewound a super8 cartridge 50 frames to produce a dissolve). I think I got both from the Superior Bulk Film Co. Did any of you other guys use them?...these gadgets were great. [Smile]

There are also special lenses by Canon/Fuji/Rowi for SLR-cameras that can be used to take photos from 8mm-wide and/or 16mm-wide- films (I've also seen a version for 8mm/16mm and slides). Since they're either M42-, Canon- or T2-mount I haven't bought any of them (even though there should be a t2->minolta-AF-mount-adapter)...

Not to mention that you can still buy 120'er film in both color and b&w.
