8 mm Projector

    I haven't posted for a very ling time so I thought I'd post something.

    I picked this up at the thrift store a while back. It was about $30 and in immaculate condition, but the cord needed to be rewired. I bought it thinking that even if it didn't work it would be a cool addition to my collection. I wired it and it works great! I have several films for it and was able to watch some of my mom's family videos from 1958 and 1959. This thing is a mechanical work of art and a blast to use.

    Strobist info: Lit with two SB's one camera left bounced off an umbrella the other to camera right and high with a homemade grid spot. Both triggered with Skyports. The background is a projection screen.

    Camera: This was shot on a Mamiya RB67 with Ilford Delta 100 Pro B&W film. I developed the film in my bathroom with Kodak D76 and scanned it on my Epson scanner.
