New Kodak super 8mm camera

Yes you most certainly can, but they widen the gate for digital transfers. So if you tried watching the final movie on a projector, the image would be cut off top and bottom.

To be precise: It would be cut on the right side (=the area reserved for the soundstripe).
But it would be cut.

There is only one place you can by the camera in the USA. That is B&H Photo in New York.


The "Waiting List Only" footnote is: "This item is only available through Stock Alert requests on a first-come, first-serve basis."

Thanks Shane and Joerg for that answer. Just as well I don't have 5k going spare.

I did ask Kodak why put a microphone on the camera body to record camera motor noise?

Don‘t worry: The camera doesn’t come with a microphone anymore. The microphone in the handle on top of the first prototypes is gone.

When you need a Max8-camera: Pro8mm is also selling refurbished S8-cameras that have been converted to Max8. Nevertheless, they are usually cheaper than the new Kodak.
When looking for a tested/CLAed Super8-camera with a warranty, then there are much cheaper options in the EU.

Canon 814XL-S the best!
