DO YOU REMEMBER

THE SUPER-8 ??

For me it started with my first Super-8 camera 1968.Before I sometimes used my father´s Double-8.

I later bought my Beaulieu 5008-S.

The most risky thing I have done was the

evening I developed one Ektachrome 160

in my bathroom.I had filmed Mott The

Hoople with Mick Ronson and could not

wait until the film was developedbyKodak.

The result was OK (even today 20years later),but the idea of developing original

Super-8 films at home is not so very good!!

1977, I started to import Super-8 stuff

which you couldn´t find in the photo-

shops.

FILMVISION was the name of

my firm.My firm FILMVISION still

exist today.Here are some stuff which

every "Super-8 freak" was asking for

& FILMVISION imported these articles

for the Scandinavian countries :

1."2.22"The best filmtreatment in the world.Eliminated scratches and protected the film not to be scratchy.

2.Craven´s Backwinder

3.Cut-A-Rut

4.Kowa´s Widescreen Lenses.

FILMVISION had for some years the

sole agency for Zero Halliburton

Aluminium Cases in the Scandinavia.

The English treatment (the one & only)

2.22 was made by Kanus Chemicals Ltd.

Does anybody know what happened to

the best filmtreatment in the world ?

After the death of the director of

Kanus Chemicals Ltd, Mr R.R. Weller,

it seems that the secret formula for "2.22" followed the chemist to his grave?

Let´s keep in touch all old

Super-8 freaks around the

world!!
