Where can I find Bell and Howell autoload 8mm film?

Question

I have a Bell and Howell Autoload Zoom Reflex video camera. I'm not sure if it was made in 1958 or 1965 but it runs and I can't find film. Do you have to use Bell and Howell Autoload film, or can I use a different 8mm? And where can I find it?

Answer 1

i suspect your camera would be the 1965 version as a 1958 version would still have lens turret and not a zoom. 8mm movie film is not auto load.so it would be "Super8" film, which came in convenient to handle cassettes.  You should be able to find super8 film in large photo shops or by mail order. While you are shopping for film, you also need to find a place that is willing to process it as well. If you don't already have a projector, that can be hard to find, again you need super8 as it is not interchangeable with regular 8mm film.
