i have been looking at transfering about 30 films of my grandfathers 16mm stuff. most all are in good condition, i have kept them myself. My aunts would like to have the footage archived on dvd or tape.
seems like most places charge around .15-30 cents a foot to have it done.
the way I figure it I have 30 /500 ft reels I might be cheaper buying the equiptment and doing it myself.yes I know it might be time consuming , but i could then do the CC and fixes to my liking.
Has anybody had any experience with this machine or on like it?
16mm telicine
Am I crazy for trying to do it my self?
I thought I might be able to make some money on the side later using the machine.
