sun of sand

I have 8 rolls x 100ft 16mm Dupont Superior 4 320ASA 1966 Negative film
It's in good shape but in the end it's about a 50ASA

Bit granier than even mid-80's tri-x but seems like a nice film.

Anyway ..don't know whether to shoot it in a cine camera or a 16mm still camera
Would have to reverse the negative film
Don't have a 16mm projector

Wouldn't want to spend -ANYTHING- on either. I'm thinking cheap ancient cine kodaks if I go that route

If anyone has a recommendation on cheap 16mm stills with manual settings..
I don't want to shoot wide open all the time


I bought a spool of plus-x for my NOS Bolex D8L
I'll shoot it one winter wonderland day here ..if we EVER GET ANY SNOW

How do I process it? I'm thinking up down in a trough would be great for 5ft
100ft?
Cut off every 5ft and splice together? can't be that harmful.

I do have a nos -working- 356A dual 8 projector so i'm good there ..once I slit the film in half


Any tips on either 8mm or 16mm?
I know nothin' about filming effects so it would either be straight shooting or if one can help out with a simple how-to on a fade or something for ending a "scene"

ANYWAY
