  • Super 8 / Regular 8 cameras with sprocket hole exposure?

    I learned a bit about the Zapruder film recently and noticed it is exposed across kinda the entire frame including the sprocket hole and I was wondering how common this was among cameras and what some good examples of this might be. For reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zapruder_film

    The article of course names the camera used for the Zapruder film, a Bell & Howell Zoomatic, but I thought maybe there's more out there like this, and maybe for Super 8 too?

    Have a look at this for details of the upmarket model standard 8 camera used in the Kennedy assassination. It does seem to film more than the usual frame size.

      I have some standard/regular 8 home movies with full width exposed but I don't know which camera was used.
