I found an 8mm camera, and I would like to know how to use it. Does anyone know where I could get instructions/a manuel? If not, how about a diagram of common 8mm camera parts? Does anyone have any advice?
Here's a link to an 8mm film forum

You could also do a search for the brand and model and catalog and see what turns up. Depending on its age it may take a film cartridge-type loading. I think it's pretty rare to find a place that sells and develops anymore. There's Yale Lab in Burbank, CA. Good luck with your experimenting.

It didn't have any "found footage" in it? How disappointing. :(
Actually, there is film in the camera, but I opened the camera in a well-lit room, so it's probably destroyed. :bluesad:
Ah well, film left in a hot attic for 40-50 years probably wouldn't be good anyways.
