Digitization Lab equipment question
by Jameson, Dennis 03 Aug '21

03 Aug '21

For those libraries around the state that offer Digitization Labs to their residents/cardholders like our library (Dearborn Public Library) does, do you convert reel-to-reel 8mm film (video) to digital format? If so, what equipment are you using to do the conversion? Are you satisfied with its reliability? We offered the service for the few patrons who brought in 8mm/Super8 film reels, but recently had to suspend converting that format due to the unreliability of the hardware we are using (Wolverine unit for about $300 that only accepts 3"-5" reels, not 7" or larger). It would keep stopping and have to be restarted, even if the reels were visibly in great condition. Do any libraries out there have other brands of 8mm/Super8 film converters that are more commercial grade as opposed to consumer grade? If money were no option, what would you like to purchase that you don't have? Thanks in advance for any replies.
