Hello!
I dared to advertise a cine film survey also here in this forum, because I have seen that many photo amateurs have filmed 8/9,5/16mm home movies earlier and some have even still 8mm shooting as a hobby.
I´m preparing my Ph.D.thesis at the University of Turku, Finland. My aim is to study how to use cine films as a source in research. I´m interested in everyday life and I´d like to find out what amateur films tell about it.
I have made a survey where I wish to find out facts about shooting 8/9,5/16mm films and having it as a hobby. What´s the situation now and what has it been before? It doesn't matter if you have stopped filming long ago.
You can find the survey here:

Look at this too:

I will make a summary in November and the results can be seen in above-mentioned Shooting8mm site.
Thanking you in anticipation.
