  • Wanted: reusable sound super 8 cart

    Hi all does anyone have a sound super 8 cart that’s reusable, was this even ever invented? If not is an old standard sound cart reusable? Any help much appreciated.

    I have a feeling there was one reusable Super 8 cartridge (I'm sure I read a review in Movie Maker) - made in Russia, but that was for silent cameras not sound.

      Yeah I’ve seen silent ones. Wonder if there’s a way to make a reusable one from an old sound one.

        I believe that the Super 8 film cartridges were not designed to be re-used. I have an idea that they were "smashed" at the film lab to get them open.

        However, here is a link to "The Old Film Company" who advertise out of date Super 8 sound cartridges which are loaded with Kodachrome 40. These they process after exposure into black and white images.

        This, of course, is an expensive way of trying to obtain an old sound cartridge, but perhaps a phone call to them might be of help.
