kodak is going to start making super 8mm sound film again ..

To use the 200ft roll from wittner you need a modified beaulieu and
special magazine
To use the 1000 ft spool you are going to have a lot of fun figuring
out how tyo get it to run in your camera and subsequently processed

I wonder:

Is the magnetic substrate applied by Wittner directly to film base, or
does it have its own plastic base (how thick?) that is glued to the film?

Is there a balance stripe (like on "real" sound films) to compensate for
the thickness of the sound stripe?

The soundstripe is an Agfa F5 stripe cemented on.

The 1000ft & 200ft is main striped only. Not balance striped.
