woolybanana Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 In the famous "forgotten shoe box at the back of the cupboard" I've discovered a load of old 8mm (pre-super 8) family movies that really should be put onto DVD. Anyone got any ideas about ways of going about this SVP?The film stock dates from about 1950-65 I think and some of it looks a bit ropey. Does anyone have any words of wisdom for handling or cleaning it?.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannon Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I did this a few years ago with some film the wife had from when she was a child. It was easy enough because a) I had a projector and b) I had easy access to a video camera.It was just a case of seeting up a small screen at right angles to a mirror. The projected image was reflected on the the mirror and 'filmed' be the video camera linked to a TV monitor. Really simple and with very good quality results - so much so that these have now been copied direct on to DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
