Hello!
I'm Simon and I own a small YouTube channel featuring railroad videography of historic equipment. I've recently been noticing that I'm no different from a plethora of other YouTube channels doing the same thing. Often times than not, my video could be the same as somebody standing next to me at the same event. So I've decided that to better represent the era I specialize in, what better to do than start filming with analog. As well as this, I was also discovering that my grandfather had his own hobby for videography and it turns out his Argus Super8 and his DeJUR 8mm(Magazine 8?) had been left to my father after he passed away when I was a child. He had purchased this Argus Super8 and a DeJUR 8mm camera overseas while he was in the Navy.
Because of these two factors I decided to purchase some Super8 film and begin to shoot analog as well as digital. This memorial day weekend I went out and filmed Norfolk & Western #611, a famous american steam locomotive, in Super8. This was probably the first time this camera had an outing since the 70s or 80s.
I'm currently searching for a place to get it developed, so it can be transferred and uploaded to my channel. (I was going to choose Pro8mm, but their reviews seemed... meh)
If you wish, here is the line to my Youtube Channel:
