It makes me wonder how many thousands of old home movies have been thrown away. This film was shot with the original Kodachrome with as ASA of 10. Thats why the color is still good. There's a shot I didn't use of a lady helping the photographer holding a light bar with very large spot lights. It wasn't easy shoot indoors in those days. Don

My dad had an old Bell & Howell 8mm camera.  He did many family films from the late 40's thru the 1970's.  Sometimes we would get together and he would pull out his old projector and screen and show the reels.  He just recently had them transferred to the DVD mode and made sort of a "family history" out of it.  It has a couple of Christmas's in it.  I also remember my dad having someone holding a light bar for him while he took indoor shots.  Matt
