Abstract: The various systems for producing 8mm release prints from 16mm and 35mm originals are evaluated and rated according to quality and practicality. In comparison with an 8mm Kodachrome II original, all 8mm commercial prints are poorer for sharpness and overall quality. Optical release printing is required for acceptable quality in an 8mm print. Laboratory cleanliness and well-maintained printers are especially important in making 8mm prints. The use of Kodachrome II Film as a 16mm original for making 8mm prints is discussed, as are the merits and prospects for photographic soundtracks on 8mm prints.
