At the Calgary Super 8 social club, sponsored by the CSIF, one of the older members introduced us to his new digital capture process. Somehow he scans 6 frames at a time and there's no flicker or hot spots. It looks really amazing. His rates are insanely cheap as well. Check out www.digican-dvd.com Bear in mind when you see the transfers that the footage was all shot in 1968 - then it seems even more amazing! I had him transfer my film "Decay" so I could send it to the Channel Islands Film Fest in California. He does really good work and works very quickly.
Apparantly the CSIF just bought some sort of super 8 to digital transfer machine too. Perhaps it's the same process. I don't know; I haven't seen what it can do yet. I'll keep you apprised if you're interested.

It's the exact same machine, apparantly.
Both the Digican guy and the CSIF charge about $2.50 a minute to transfer. Pretty reasonable, eh?

The setup is actually pretty simple. Setup the projector next to a DVcam with adjustable frame rates and off you go. I believe the Canon XL-1S is the one used in the examples given.
