1362815 2013-12-16 06:46:00 I have been left with 10 rolls of exposed Kodak 8 mm film, following the death of a relation.

I would be interested if anybody knows of a way to convert it into a more modern format that
could be viewed, perhaps on a computer ? I don't have the movie camera !

1362817 2013-12-16 19:45:00 Thanx for the link as I have some 8mm stuff I want to get transfered. Sounds like the premium service does some sort of scanning where as the budget is telecine at the best.. paulw (1826)
1362818 2013-12-17 09:53:00 Is your film processed? (developed)
If not, you will find it very difficult to find a processor as the chemicals are no longer made, but there was a US site that could do it. Read all reviews very carefully, there was an outfit that took the money and didn't deliver so you want to avoid that kind of problem. I have an exposed Super 8 sitting on my desk awaiting a place to send it, but I haven't found one yet. Mind you, I got discouraged by the scammer and gave up the hunt, so times could have changed.

Cheers
