Kodak is still manufacturing Super 8 film cartridges, but there are millions of older home movie cameras that require Regular 8mm film (also known as Standard 8mm or Double 8mm) on spools. Fortunately, John Schwind provides a variety of specially cut Kodak stocks to keep your vintage 8mm camera running. His prices are quite reasonable- $10 for a 25ft spool of Cine-X 100 ASA B&W film, or $16 for Kodak’s beautiful Ektachrome 100 D color reversal stock. For those unfamiliar, Regular 8mm film comes on 100 ft or 25 ft reels.

This film is 16mm wide and you expose one half of the film before flipping it to expose the other half. The film is split down the middle after processing, leaving you with 8mm wide film strips that you can run through a projector. Regular 8 cameras often sell for pennies because there are people are under the impression that film is no longer available.
