Keystone K8
IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
La Keystone K8 és una càmera de cinema amateur, en format 8mm, fabricada abans i durant la II Guerra Mundial.
És una petita,senzilla i molt ben pensada càmera de cinema. Realment té la pinta (i pot quasi passar com ) de llauna de sardines, però és una petita joia. Funciona perfectament, tot i que encara no n'he vist els resultats.
El format 8mm (standard), fou creat per Kodak el 1932 com una manera encara més barata de fer pel·licules casolanes (sense dubte per l'impacte economic del 1929). El seu principal desaventatge és que cal obrir la càmera i girar la pel·licula cada 2 minuts. De fet, la pel·licula fa16mm d'ample, no 8, però la filmació es fa en dues passades, una en una meitat, i després a l'altre. Per això cal girar la cinta. Després es divideix en dos al quarto fosc.
Les K8 de Keystone es fabricaren entre 1936 i 1943, i moltes foren emprades per soldats al·liats durant la guerra mundial, per la seva facilitat d'us i mida compacta.

=======================
The Keystone K8 is an 8mm amateur film camera made before and during World War II.
It is a small, simple and well thought out film camera. It really looks (and can almost look like) a can of sardines, but it's a little gem. It works perfectly, although I haven't seen the results yet.
The 8mm (standard) format was created by Kodak in 1932 as an even cheaper way to make home movies (no doubt because of the economic impact of 1929 Wall Street Crack. Its main disadvantage is that you have to open the camera and turn the movie every 2 minutes. In fact, the film is 16mm wide, not 8mm, but the filming is done in two passes, one in one half, and then the other. That's why you have to turn the tape. It is then divided into two in the dark room, and linked together.
The Keystone K8s were manufactured between 1936 and 1943, and many were used by Allied soldiers during World War II for their ease of use and compact size.
