I was trying to remember if this company ever released any feature on 8mm?

Not sure Tom - but they did release some excellent extracts - some of which I have with little or no fade

As far as I remember they only released 400' digests, the closest they got to a more generous release was the 2 extracts from "Kentucky Fried Movie", I think they were only around for a couple of years though!

Thanks Barry. I thought that was the case. I recently sold my two kfm excerpts as i found a good 16mm feature which is pretty rare on agfa stock. It has a couple of jumpy splices but nothing that cant be fixed and restored.
