Thanks for the Elmo advice!
I am interested in 8mm primarily, both Super-8 and Regular. W/ sound and silent. I've done some pricing and yes, it does look like I'll be paying a $150-$250 premium for exactly what I want. Just want to know what I should do, look for, etc. before I make such a large investment for one of the coolest hobbies around!
Oh, BTW- I have two 8mm projectors that introduced me to the world of 8mm, but both need work - my B&H much more than my Kodak. The Kodak plays silent 8mm fine, slow in some spots - especially apparent if I'm watching a feature film / something professionally produced by Castle, Paramount etc. Looking to get something that I can use as my main player - reliable, and relatively quiet.
Thanks for the input everyone! This is truly invaluable!!
