Who I am and what I do - I work in television as a broadcast television engineer and have history as a producer and editor in corporate and regional broadcast television. I judge the unit based on my past experience in editing and Telecine transfer. I have transferred many reels of film with this unit. It does a surprisingly good job for the price of the unit. Is it a Telecine level unit? No, but it does a good transfer as it scans every frame of film. It is many times better than trying to set up a projector and camera to do a transfer and dealing with the frame rate issues of 18 or 24 fps to 29.97 fps (US). I did the speed calculation and adjusted the speed using some simple consumer grade software, rendered it all then created DVDs of family home movies. That is the point of this unit, transferring old 8mm and Super 8mm family movies so you don't lose your family memories. I recommend the unit for that purpose.
