8mm, Super8, & 16mm Film Transfer
We not only convert your 8mm, Super8, and 16mm film to DVD, we restore them to their original quality or better using the latest Restoration technology. We do not consider our services to just be a transfer service, we do so much more.
All 8mm, Super8, and 16mm film is carefully cleaned and prepared before conversion in order to repair bad splices and to look for potential bad sprocket holes that might mar the quality of the transfer to the conversion equipment. After transfer, all footage is color and density corrected before going to DVD, HD DVD or Blue Ray disc.
We use the latest and most up to date equipment which features a unique PulseGate Technology. This offers the breathtaking clarity that can only come from frame by frame scanning in high definition. Every Super8, regular 8mm and 16mm frame of your footage is individually scanned directly to an HD camera using a CMOS sensor with almost 3 million pixels! The gate on our equipment is enlarged to give us access to 100% of the film frame and our unique, super bright, cool LED light source provides rich, vibrant colors with zero hot spot and no chance of burning film. Frame by frame scanning means your transfers are 100% flicker free, crystal clear and razor sharp from corner to corner. Except in the case of 16mm film, the sprocket less drive assures no film damage to your priceless footage. Due to the size and weight or 16mm film a sprocket drive is used.
SD or HD, how do I decide which one I want.
Whether you need standard def or high def transfers, all films are scanned at full 1080p. Standard def files are then down converted from the original HD scans for maximum clarity.
