Kodak Super 8mm
While CES is typically all about the future, this year’s show also included a number of gadgets that gave a
nod to the tech of the past. One was Kodak's new Super 8mm camcorder, a format that hasn’t been popular at the show in over a decade. The cool-looking camera is Kodak’s first 8mm cam since 1982, and uses 8mm film, something you’ll have to get developed in order to watch (and have an appropriate player for). Recording that 8mm video won’t be cheap, either. Cartridges for the camera will cost $80 apiece, and will only record three minutes of video. Audio recording on the device; however, is digital, and is handled through an SD card slot on the front of the camera. The camera is due out in the fall, with pricing expected to fall between $400 and $750.
