KODAK CINE-EIGHT: HOW TO LOAD FILM

It's an old camera with a confusing film-loading procedure. I hope this video helps you figure it out.

This is a perfect Video. Just found this camera at a yard sale today. Thank you!

I shot a roll on this camera a few days ago and I couldn't figure it out. Thank you so much for this video.

This was super helpful. I shot a roll on this same model but it came out with “vertical pulling” as the lab called it where it looks like the image gets stretched out from top to bottom. They said it’s usually due to loading errors. I’m thinking it was probably my loop! I will try again even though my wallet is resisting 😂

So thankful for an informed user, in opposition to a fervid collector who passes themselves off as an ardent professional in all things touching upon cinematic items. My parents were shutterbugs, but hardly instilled in their young an interest in photography. I had to find that on my own. The literature on the models 20, 25, and 60 is hard to find since film makers ceased making fresh film stocks, so many have been forced to using expired film for our efforts. I am no different, having many failures in my enterprises, but thankfully hoped that my keeping these relics would one day pay off, and it has. I found your video and a supplier of fresh film stock at reasonable cost. I had hoped to find some aid to help bridge my ignorance since many are just fiddlers who know less than all the rest. Thank you for giving my battered old friend a new found purpose beyond collecting dust on a mantle piece. Bless you.

Thank you so much for doing this!! Such a great help as I’ve never loaded our passed down cine-Kodak 8 model 25 before and I hope to buy some film for it soon. Any suggestions?

I just got one of these cameras and this video is very helpful!
I'm just wondering if it is possible to have some sort of red light on in the dark so I can (almost) see what I'm doing while im supposed to put the film in the camera

I found a model 20 in an antique store a while back but the catch button is stuck on "close" and I can't open the door. Any suggestions?

This video is much appreciated, I just got this camera and was wondering where you get the film and what kind of film to purchase for it?
