And superb sound quality. And all on 8mm! I love that gauge. Has a exquisite quality all of its own. So fantastic to see it digitized here. Imagine how much 8mm is languishing in attics and cupboards around the world. I used to go to film parties as a boy, where family friends and relations would show the Super 8 movies while we kids munched crisps and drank pop. I go all funny and warm watching stuff like this. I suddenly start eating crisps! Beautiful! And superb sound quality. And all on 8mm! I love that gauge. Has a exquisite quality all of its own. So fantastic to see it digitized here.

Brought back many memories of the fishing trips I used to take when I was young. What amazes me was how good that audio was from that mic he was holding. I agree with Kent on the look of the 8mm film. Just love the warmth that film had. That was wonderful to watch. Brought back many memories of the fishing trips I used to take when I was young.

Looks like everyone is having a great time. I'm also struck w/ how much has changed over the last 29 years -- from the huge aluminum boats then to the white water rafts of today to the Super 8 video and external mics vs. what people would take today. But also has stayed the same -- a trip out into nature like this would be mostly the same type of experience today as it would then. It'd also be great if some of the digital cameras today could emulate the deep saturated and grainy look of 8mm film. I know it's possible to do in post, but I'd love to see more of it from the people w/o a ton of color correcting experience. It just has a richer feeling of nostalgia.
