Understanding Super 8 Film Types
There are only a few film types for a super-8 camera and if you are using film, you do have to be cautious with your settings and lighting.
Indoor Films
Choose from options such as 200T or 500T for capturing warm, indoor lighting. These films provide versatility and richness in color, perfect for intimate moments indoors.
Outdoor Films
Opt for 50D or 250D for outdoor settings, offering crispness and clarity in natural light. These films beautifully capture the vibrancy of outdoor scenes, adding depth and dimension to your footage.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
250 is warmer in the colors, outside/inside usage
200T is slightly blue outside and indoors, most versatile
500T is inside only aka dancing indoors for a low-light evening setting
The “D” stands for Daylight
Since these cameras don’t have a white balance, the D is the white balance.
3 Tips for Incorporating Super-8 Film into Your Day
ONE | Communication is Key
Coordinate with your photographer/videographer to outline must-have moments for Super-8 coverage. Discuss your vision and preferences to ensure a seamless integration of film into your wedding day.
