Our Film Transfer Systems
We use world famous Tobin Cinema Systems professional telecine transfer equipment. It is simply the best available, and is used in most transfer houses around the world. Our newest Tobin system combines the best of all other systems. High definition, frame by frame, and direct transfer. No screen, no mirrors, no “aerial image”, no rolling shutter effect, and absolutely no flicker whatsoever.
The High Definition camera is triggered by the next film frame coming into position, after the rotating shutter opens so the camera doesn’t see it. There is no chance of blending film frames together. There is no interference from the original shutter to require a particular running speed, and no chance of flicker or shutter bar.
After recording, we use special software to specify the AVI header to assign 16 FPS ( for regular-8 ) or 18 FPS ( for super-8 ) speed so the file will play back on a computer at the original film camera’s running speed.
Then our master video editing system is used to control the final cropping and scaling of the image file and convert it to the desired Blu-Ray or DVD disc format, or video file. We insert pillar box bars, or wallpaper, on the left and right to expand the original 4:3 ( 12:9 ) film image to the 16:9 ratio.
​ We do not crop off any part of the original 4:3 image to “fill” the 16:9 screen.
We have seen the evolution of film transfer systems over the years and are very excited to offer the latest in telecine transfer technology to date. Additionally, our rates are right in the middle of the pack. We are confident ALL of our customers will be 100% satisfied with our services.
Our Process
As soon as we receive your sequentially numbered films, whether they be 50′ reels or any mix of larger reels, we contact you to acknowledge they have arrived.
We then begin to clean them up and splice them for transfer. 50′ reels will be spliced onto larger reels.
This makes them much easier to clean and faster to transfer from less handling. Which means we can offer this low cost rate for an ultra-high quality transfer.
We then direct transfer your film to an AVI file. That file is then processed using special software to render a perfect flicker free playback at exactly the correct speed. The rendered file is recoded to any number of codec containers including AVI, MP4, Quicktime. The file(s) are output to either DVD, SD card or flash drive.
Pricing
Cost = 10 cents per foot for both Regular 8mm and Super 8 film. So a 50′ film = $5.00. To figure the cost of larger reels use this reference:
3″ = 50′ 4″ = 100′ 5″ = 200′ 6″ = 300′ 7″ = 400′
To Order
From this listing each $5 unit equals 50′ of film or “other charges”.(See below) Simply total up all of the reels by feet size, and then divide by 50. That will tell you how many “units” from this listing you should order. For instance, if your total is 1350′, you would order 27 “units” and the cost would be $135.
MINIMUM ORDER IS $30
Other Charges
DVDs = $5 ea. or 1 “unit”
16G Flash Drive = $10 ea. or 2 “units”
8G SD Card = $10.ea. or 2 “units”
Return shipping is flat fee $10.00.
We use USPS Media Mail with a “tracking number” and “signature confirmation” to return films.
Other Information
We provide the transferred files on a playable DVD, flash drive or SD card. The files are your choice of either MPEG-4, or Quicktime. They can be played on a computer and displayed on a TV monitor the same as a DVD using Windows Media Player or other programs. From this listing, we do not “edit” finished programs together, and/or add music. This can be done by someone else easy enough, but it is too time consuming for us in this offering. Adding music is a personal thing too, as well as a legal thing. We suggest a friend or family member that is computer savvy and has the time to put the personal family touch into an edited program.
Turn-Around time is usually just a few days. Holiday season can be longer, but we still try to get everything done within 7 days.
We also archive a copy of your files on a hard drive in case something bad ever happens to your copy(s)

CUSTOMER AGREEMENT TO TERMS BY PURCHASE
I am requesting that the above work be performed. I certify that no copyright material is supplied, or that I have received and am including written permission to copy same. I also authorize the company to use material for demonstration and/or display. I understand that damaged original material will generate additional charges whether or not a usable copy is produced. I take full responsibility for choosing the transfer order of the films. I agree that “the company” through care will try to minimize the inherent risk of running old shrunken, scratched, warped, crumpled and brittle tapes/films or those with splices. The company and associates can not be held responsible for circumstances beyond their control, such as natural disaster or war, theft or vandalism by third parties, or for damage or loss in transit. The company will exert its best efforts to produce a good quality product, subject to the limitations of the transfer process, and the nature and condition of the material submitted. In case of complaint, the company will evaluate the order and re-do it if it can be improved, and the customer agrees that this is the only available remedy.
What To Do Now
Preview your films. If you can’t, it’s okay, just number them in the order you think they should go. If they are out of proper sequence, that’s okay too, they can be shuffled around after the transfer process. Next, calculate the total feet, divide by 50 to get the number of units, add up the “other charges” as units, then
order from the listing.  Once everything is in order, pack your films carefully into a sturdy box and send them via Priority Mail to;
