Chris Burke Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 What is your budget?? There are many options available. Here is one https://www.moviestuff.tv/moviestuff_universal_mark_ii_series.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted February 6, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted February 6, 2021 Sadly the only good scanners are very expensive. What you really need with super 8 is cleanliness and good optics. You won't get that with a cheap movie stuff scanner, it just doesn't happen. You're going to be spending $40k USD or so to get a decent scanner that can do Super 8 at any quality that's worth people paying for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory Dargent Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Hi ! I've build mine, that's the cheaper and best alternative I've found, I now can scan super8 and 16mm in 4k at home with a not too bad quality. You can have a look here for a lot of informations about how to build your scanner : www.kinograph.cc Cheers, Gregory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Baxter Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 The Pictor Pro is fine if you only want to do 8mm and Super 8, priced at €13.5K which is less than half the price of the HDS+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
