  • Spondon Long Play Unit

    Was the Spondon Long Play Unit only for Super 8, or could it also handle 16mm?

          Maurice. The couple who ran Spondon were a lovely couple and always really helpful. As he developed the long play unit further over the years he concentrated on the electrical system governing the motor more and more. A very clever man and always a pleasure to chat with.
          The Spondon LPU did see a number of spec upgrades then but quite a innovation at the time.
