I priced out having a photo service transfer all of my parents 8mm videos to digital. Since we had a large quantity of these to do, it was more cost effective to purchase this Kodak unit and make the digital copies myself rather than having the local photoshop do the conversion. I am on about my 25th film reel and have had no issues with the unit. It occassionally will make some noise (from what I believe is the take up real drive system) but then it goes away. When I was looking to purchase I read some of the negative reviews. Everything that was negative seemed to be user error. You have to make sure that the film is properly seated under the four guide clips. If the film is chewed up you will have to baby sit the process but this is not the fault of the machine. Also, the machine can't make the move quality any better so don't expect it to look like your high def TV when you are streaming a movie. It is what it is and does a great job saving family movies and coverting them to an MP4 files. Files are easily transfered using an SD card. Functions are very intuitive and easy to use. It would be nice if they had a touch screen, but the buttons work fine.

I've now run about 25 Super 8 films through this machine so I have a pretty good idea of what you can expect here. The bottom line is that this is a relatively cost-effective way to bring your old home movies into the digital age, assuming you have a substantial pile of them. But it is a fair bit of work, probably more than you expect it to be, for reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of this machine. I have basically no complaints with the machine itself. It is reasonably straightforward to use and the results look pretty good to my eye. The image sensor seems to be good enough that you likely won't have to do this ever again in search of better results down the line, assuming you are dealing with home movies that were originally shot on a relatively simple and cheap machine in the first place. I wish it was a little bit easier to get the film seated into the scanner bed, but you eventually get the hang of it. Feeding the film into those guides around the scanning bed is really my only complaint with the design and operation of this machine. The interface is relatively simple and straightforward and it does everything you need it to do. However, when people talk about how great the good old days were, they probably were not talking about 8mm home movies. This stuff was revolutionary for its time, but it wasn't all that easy to work with even back then. Now that those rolls have been sitting in your closet for 50 years or so, they haven't gotten any easier to handle. They are now even more fragile, so they can break, they slip off the reel, they get stuck, and if you have any splices in them the splicing tape will likely not survive a trip through this or any other projector now. None of this is, in any way, the fault of this machine. Indeed, it seems to be calibrated to move slowly so to put as little strain on your now ancient, fragile film stock as possible. But it means that running a large library of home movies through it is going to be a somewhat lengthy and occasionally fussy process. You'll be getting out the scotch tape to do some half-baked repair to get your film through the machine or end up with a tangled mess if you don't carefully babysit it as it slowly grinds through each of the reels in your library. I never timed it to see how long it took to process a roll of film, but I'd guess it runs at about 1/10th speed. So figure roughly 30 minutes of processing time for 3 minutes of film. You don't have to watch it constantly the entire time it is running, but you do need to be in the room and keep an eye on it as it works, in case there is a splice that fails, it gets stuck, etc. If you are looking at this machine it is probably because you looked at the prices of those scanning services you can ship your film off to and were shocked by how much they charged. I suspect a lot of that cost is the inherent hand labor of what is required to handle this old film stock. So this DIY choice will save you some cash, but you are going to be providing all of that same labor yourself. I bought this as a Christmas present to surprise my now elderly parents with a chance to see these movies from their youth that have been gathering dust in a closet for decades now. If you are planning something similar, all I can recommend is that you give yourself a considerable amount of lead time to get the scanning work done, because the number of hours you will invest in scanning that box of old home movies, getting it edited into a presentable format, etc. is probably a lot more than you expect it will take going in.

This is a great machine for converting your old 8mm film to digital, after a little tweaking! After my dad passed away, I found a bunch of 8mm film in his garage from my childhood that I've never seen. After watching one film on his old projector, I bought the Kodak Reels to preserve the memories. Out of the box, this machine captures at a pretty low bitrate, resulting in some blocky video, with quite a bit of artifacts. It's not bad, per se, but it could definitely be better! So, the first thing I did after getting the Kodak Reels was to increase the recording bitrate by modifying and reflashing the firmware. This results in a much better looking picture, and I can also post process the video on my computer, and recompress it without too much loss of quality. A word of warning, though -- modifying the firmware comes with the risk of destroying your Kodak Reels, so do it at your own risk! Because of this, I recommend you don't do this. The default sharpness setting is also turned up pretty high, which adds some noise to the recorded videos. You'll want to turn the sharpness all the way down to not apply that filter. You can always sharpen the video on your computer if you want, for the same effect. When capturing the video, I zoom all the way out, so I can post process on my computer. This ensures that I can always get the full frame of video. This machine always saves video at 20 frames per second. However, 8mm film is usually shot at 16fps, and super 8 at 18fps. So, your video will be sped up when played back on a computer. To fix this, I used the following ffmpeg commands on my computer to change the frame rate from 20fps to 18fps (for super 8): ffmpeg -i Movie0001.mp4 -map 0:v -c:v copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb raw.h264 ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -r 18 -i raw.h264 -c:v copy Movie0001_18fps.mp4 Then, I ran the video through SmoothVideo Project (Google this online) to add interpolated frames to the video, and convert it to 24fps. This is in preparation to make the video compliant for a Blu-ray disc. Finally, I opened the 24fps video in Handbrake, and resized, cropped, and added black bars to make the video 1920x1080, 24fps, and encoded it again. And now it's ready to create a Blu-ray disc! In summary, the video is encoded at a high bitrate by Kodak Reels, then re-encoded by SVP, and finally re-encoded by Handbrake. With the higher bitrate encoding firmware modification, the final result still looks really good, as long as you set the bitrate really high in SVP as well. So, I really like this machine, and would definitely buy it again. It's a bit of work, but the results are worth it!

Have old 8mm or super 8 films? Want to digitize them yourself? This is the product for you. Very easy to use. Bit slow but it is copying each frame of your old film. You get to see each frame as it is being copied. If there are issues with your film, simply pull the film through and all is well again. I'm very happy I bought this. I have 12 3 inch reels to copy.
