I must say I am STUNNED that SOMEONE has put this kind of effort into my beloved medium of Super-8! While I am VERY IMPRESSED with the steadiness and quality of the image you have achieved, I must say I am not happy with the scratches that appear to be on the camera original. I have never been into the "distressed" look that some Super-8 filmmakers are into, and have always strived for the cleanest look I can get from the medium. Are the scratches emanating from a fault in your transport design? I hope not! This is AMAZING! All the best with this new exciting development in Super-8.
