Any know of a scanner that can scan old 8mm films to be transfered to vhs?greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread |
I'm looking for a unit that can scan in my old 8mm reel films to then be transfered to a VHS tape. I know I've seen a unit that can do this before but I don't remember who makes it. Thanks in advance for any help.Erick

In the UK it is possible to get an optical device. You project your 8mm cine onto a ground glass screen and then set up the video to collect the picture. This gives a passable result but some projectors give a very bright light in the centre which can cause a bright spot.Hope this helps.
