44 Hilarious Super 8 film camera Puns

First time posting so not sure if this is allowed here, but I just inherited this 1960s Canon Super 8 video camera from my grandfather. No idea how it works yet but was hoping you guys would know how to get some film to test it out?

I just ended up with my first super 8 camera. I know it’s not the best model out there, but I’m very new to film. What type of film will work with this? Any help would be appreciated! reddit.com/gallery/n4b2fe

Just found this super 8 camera that was my dads. I took it to a shop and was told it’s automatic so he wasn’t sure what the ASA was. If I use 50 ASA should I ask the developer to pull it back a few stops or what. I’m a film photographer but I’m brand new to super 8

Super 8 Film Camera WITHOUT an Eye Piece?

Hello and thank you ahead of time for reading this. I recently was given an old Super 8 film camera and after shooting slrs for a while I am very excited to jump in. My only issue is that the camera I was given does not have an eye piece. By eye piece, I mean the rubber cup around the eye piece has been deteriorated beyond repair and is nonexsistent. A few questions I have:

Can I still shoot without this rubber eye piece?

Is there anything I can use as a makeshift eye piece for the time being?

Is there anywhere I can buy a replacement eye piece?

Are eye pieces universal?

Thanks again!

-mongo.

Do not buy from Film Camera Store (UK): Sold me a faulty £250 super 8 camera and is ignoring all emails for a return/refund.

Do not buy from The Film Camera Store, UK site: https://filmcamerastore.co.uk/

I bought a 'fully tested' super 8 camera which came with 30 day returns and 12 months warranty apparently. Then it arrived faulty, and I cannot get hold of the buyer for a return or refund. I'm having to go via my bank through the UK Chargeback Scheme where they forcibly retrieve your money if you can prove your case.

Do not buy from here - this guy called 'Luke Clarke' is a deceptive fraud. I've tried messaging the company on Instagram and I have been blocked.

Literally just trying to return a faulty camera, could have been resolved very easily.

UPDATE: It took me 5 months, but I managed to get a full refund via my bank through the Chargeback scheme. The seller disputed my claim twice, the claim eventually had to go to a Mastercard tribunal where they granted me the refund. I had Whatsapp messages from Luke Clarke threatening me to take this Reddit message down otherwise I would receive no refund. The guy is a massive fraud. Avoid at all costs.

Best super 8 camera for a narrative short film?

Would really appreciate any answers as I'm new to super 8 and shooting on film. I'm shooting a short film and I originally wanted to shoot it on 16mm. Having no experience and little cash, I decided I should try super 8 first. I'm looking for a good super 8 camera that can at least somewhat resemble the clarity of 16mm footage and can sync with audio. I want the footage to be as "cinematic" and clear as possible within the limits of super 8. Any insight or suggestions would be helpful.
