18 fps... or ideally 24 fps. Most people were using it at 18 fps, processing 
was expensive.

Coriander. With a firewire MArlin F145C2 camera. Resolution of ~ 1400*1100, 
YUV 422, wich is quite good.... 
Once all in ppm files I got the all lot into mjpegtools, or I built a DV file 
from them.

When you look at the resolution of a Super 8 mm it makes you wonder sometimes 
why the all lot crapped down. It is a wonderful media.

About the same as me  ????? ~39
