http://www.kodak.com/US/en/motion/super8/tips.shtml It's still very popular for students learning filmmaking, and finds much use in making Music Videos. KODAK VISION 200T Color Negative Film is even available in Super-8! How many video formats have been successful for almost 40 years?  (BTW, 35mm film is over a century "new", and more prints were made last year than any time in history!).

I agree about Super-8, especially K-40! The last few times I used it, I shot at 24fps (instead of the more customary 18fps for this format) and thanks to the excellent Schneider optics on my hand-me-down Nizo camera, the results were spectacular. When I had the footage telecined at professional sites, the operators always commented how sharp the material was for super-8 and how it looked more like 16MM. (Photography is one of the things I do OK with!).
Unfortunately, on my last time out, my poor Nizo camera ground to a halt (or slowed down remarkably) during several shots, meaning it's probably nearing the end of its useful life (unless I find somewhere that can repair it). Of course, not many video cameras last 25 years or more...nor do many have picture quality like this!
