    Winfield Heckert commented on Ultra 16mm Regular 16mm comparison

    Thanks Frank. if you search for Cinelicious Ultra 16 demo on Vimeo they do a good job of explaining what ultra16 is. When I trade my BL in for a super16 camera I might be able to do a suoer16 to ultra16 comparison. But for now this is to show that if you have a camera that can't be modified to super16 then ultra 16mm is the way too go. It only costs about 600 to go Ultra16. My camera package cost less then a Super16mm conversion. not bad looking footage for 3000.00 and a old Zoom lens.
    The video plays fine on my Mac. Haha
