Now Wittner has sold-out of their own-brand Super 8 and Standard 8 colour reversal film, is anyone aware of any colour reversal alternative for both Super 8 and Standard 8 please..?? If I have to pay the over-inflated price for Kodak's new Super 8 Ektachrome I will but I would additionally like to continue using my Bolex P1 with colour reversal film too [Smile]

Thanks for any suggestions!

This company in Japan sells super 8 and single 8 (not to be confused with standard/regular 8). I never used it but an Italian user who talked to me a few days ago about it is happy with this stock. http://www.retro8.com/english/eng_single8_film2003.htm

Thanks for the suggestion, Dominique! I am aware of Retro8 and will consider using their Super 8 colour reversal film. However if anyone is aware of Standard/Regular 8 colour reversal film, I would like to keep my Bolex stocked with colour reversal (still like to project my films) [Smile]
