Film Conversion Equipment
Film Scanning and Film Transfer Equipment Types
The type of film scanning machine used for your 8mm, Super 8 or 16mm film conversion will have as much of an impact on the quality you receive as the resolution of the scan itself will. For example, if you wanted to digitize a photograph and tried doing it two different ways. You first put the photograph down on a table and took a picture of it using your smart phone or camera. Then you took the picture and scanned it using a flatbed scanner. If you compare the two side by side on your computer it will become really obvious that the flatbed scanner produced a digital image as good as the photograph. However, the picture you took with your phone or camera does not look close to the quality of the original photograph.
The same goes for scanning your 8mm, Super 8 or 16mm film. The real-time and frame by frame machines below are using a camcorder to take a picture of your film. The motion picture film scanner and Datacine machine are scanning the film. The results will be significantly different.

Spokane Fun Facts: Spokane was officially incorporated in 1881 but suffered a crippling setback in the summer of 1889, when the city's downtown commercial district was destroyed by fire. Recovery was quick, boosted by the construction of many of the grand historic buildings that still stand today. In the decade following the fire, Spokane’s population nearly tripled and the arrival of the Great Northern railroad made Spokane a transportation hub for the area.
