You can't hook a film camera up to video sources - unless the film is transferred to a high-end nonlinear editing system like Avid Composer (and I have no idea how to get film to computer storage).
For film footage to be displayed on a TV it has to be telecined (converted to NTSC or PAL format).

Super 8 cameras are cool. I got a Super 8 VCR from a local hardware store that used it to record their security tapes. $55. Good deal, although it doesnt have any good features like those high end VCRs that can edit stuff. It just has standard Play, Rew, Stop, etc.
