16mm...much of my life revolves around it. It is by far the largest part of my Archive, while being the least exploited media I have due to the expense of the scanning operation needed to benefit from it. So, it is a love-hate relationship with it. Without 16mm, a lot of our history would have been lost.

Check out what a DP brought to the Student Filmmakers Magazine HQ yesterday. He had many of these and had them all digitized. It was pricey but how cool is that?
