While I don't doubt that a $100 K scanner

of the footage I have seen in the thirty five years I have been
transferring this stuff has been out of focus, poorly lit, scratched,
badly framed, (upside down even,) and so far no one has complained of
the quality I get with my projector
to Buhl lens system to video camera. Sooner or later we are going to
run out of 8mm films to transfer. and it
would take a long time to recover $100K at ten cents a foot for film.
'twould seem that the MAIN use would be for large collections of 16mm.
