                Interesting to see how the sound one works out. What was
the

                About 8 years ago I filmed my son's wedding with silent 
super 8 (but noisy cameras). I had two cameras going, one close in by me
and 
one farther back by a friend. People were a little startled by the
noisiness 
after being used to the digital age equipment. I felt a little worried
that 
I was disrupting things but got some nice footage.

                Super8! SuperGreat!

                It's a B&H. Can't remember the series and it is squished 
against a bunch of banker's boxes (years 2005 and 2006) so I can't read
what 
is on the carton. For silent I use a Eumig Mark 510D. I have four hardly 
used Sankyo Dualux 2000H stockpiled as well. These are quite small and
handy 
for when people ask me to bring a projector and a film to some event. Must

have been a popular model around here for some reason. Once I was showing
a 
film at the lake that I have a cassette tape made to accompany it. The 
cassette player did not work so I put a cassette adapter into an 8 track 
player I had lying around and played the cassette through that. Talk about
a 
roomful of  antiquated formats.
