Unfortunately live in the southern part of Italy, fairs themed around there are not many, unfortunately I can refer only to online. I had seen the editor on the antabazar, but it is a very high expensive! However, do not give up, I try all the time! Ah, I'm going to subscribe to Ciné 9.5! Another curiosity: what model of 9,5 projector would you advise me? Keep in mind that I would use it for telecine, so I could use with the variable speed. On this forum recommend the Specto 500, but not much available.

I never practised telecine (I prefer watching films with a projector, on a real screen), so I cannot give you any advise about that. Ciné 9,5 is in French. The number of ads varies from one time to another but don't expect to find a lot. I like the magazine as it gives informations about the Ciné-Club 9,5 de France (http://cine9.5mm.free.fr/) activities and sometimes some technical advies like, this time how to convert a Super 8 automatic threading spool onto a 9,5 one. Back to your editor search, prices are often higher in France than in England. You may be luckier there. I would advise you to check if Buckingham Films services (buckingham@filmservices.wanadoo.co.uk) have not material you could use. I am sure they could advise you a projector for telecine. I advise you them because they are specialists in 9,5.

I'am in contact with a really friendly user of http://cine9.5mm.free.fr/ (maybe I've never asked for the name!), He sent me a "test" number with the docket to subscribe, which will soon! You have beautiful projectors, congratulations, you are a true professional of 9.5 mm! I too would like to have had/have the ability to turn the markets, but, here, the short wheelbase is almost unknown. I've got the Eumig for 8mm (Phonomatic Novo) and are very satisfied.
Curiosity: but to affect the sound track with the projector that works is that first recorded the sound track on the sides (or one side) of the film, right? Would you do it alone or is there a lab that does it?

Yes, I also tried to write to Ciné Dia, they told me once, but then I found out that their "wing" no longer supports 9.5 mm. But I think it is still Colorcity their partners, then all OK.
The question: I bought the Fuji 9.5 mm from Colorcity (is a 50 ISO, right?). In my case is in three reels of 8.20 mt. because I use Camex GS, which has its three magazines. Since the Camex GS does not have the option to set the ISO, as will the footage shot in daylight? Obviously consideration that all variables will be set well (iris, focus, etc.). And I can use that film in indoors with my spotlight at 3400 Kelvin? Needs the blue filter?

I don't know this camera but there is no "asa bouton" on any camera that doesn't have an automatic or a semi-automatic aperture. You will have to set the aperture yourself, following the classical "16 or 22 for bright sun, 1,9 or 2,8 for poor conditions and every condition between at a number between these" if you have no separate exposure meter. I use 30 metres reels and they turned from 50 asa to 100 asa. On the website they say the 3X8,20 boxes are 50 asa. To be sure, check the box. The film is outdoor, so you need indeed a filter to shoot at indoor light. Keep in mind that if you put a filter, the number of asa dropps and the aperture has to be adapted. You will enjoy even if you may have some bad surprises at the beginning but usually, even if it looks to be a "luck" matter, the film is correctly exposed. I confirm that Color City and Cine Dia are related, they have the same address.

This is camera: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeanarmor2/4484063921/in/photostream/ has a side with the instructions of lights, which you described too. On the old price list of Cine Dia also had 3x8,20mt 100 ASA, but they think they do not sell anymore. You know there is a description on the web about this type of Fuji (3x8.20mt, 15mt ...)? I've never found anything!
Then for the indoor should use the usual Wratten 80a and 80b that I use even for 8mm (which, as you rightly say, they also take the two "stop" on the iris). The problem will be to find the right size lens, or use of gelatin adapted, we'll see ... Thank you always for your kindness, Dominique!

Nice camera. You have the advantage of the cartridge but the disavantage of the cost of the film stock. Of course, you cannot have everything :-) I am surprised about the exposure table on the camera as it is for 12 asa, which is very low. In bright sun, they advised 8 or 11. I would have set it on 22 and be afraid of an overexposure. I don't know why Color City sells the 3X8,20 m on 50 asa rather than 100 asa, I guess it is because the cameras who accept these cartridges have often a maximum aperture of 16 rather than 22 (but I am not sure that's the reason). This put aside, the 9,5 stock is Fuji Velvia, you should find several pages about it. It's always a pleasure to answer your messages.
