Does anyone know of a company which will transfer Super 8 film onto DVD?

Thanks Sandra.  This is the problem when formats keep changing all the time.  I still have a large collection of phonograph cylinders which I bought in 1902 and the horn is starting to wear out.  One day I'll transfer those to DVD too.  

I was in my prime at the turn of the 20th Century I'll have you know.  Young whippersnapper!  

I have found a company that will do this.  It's the Widescreen Centre in London although transfer to DVD is quite expensive and will exceed £100.

I presume the silent ones are from your teens, Sandra?    :heehee:

I dont thing Super 8 was invented then Simon  

For those younger than Clive and myself,Super 8 was a revolution in home movies when it came out as it was nice and compact and the unused film came as a small sealed cartridge containing 50 feet of film.This lasted for a whole 3 amd a half minutes,(or was it 4 and a half)I think  
The silent ones were a little expensive and you had to be careful not to waste it and try to edit as you went rather than shoot loads of stuff and edit it later because of the cost of the film and developing.The later sound super 8 was prohibitively expensive ( well it was for me   )but I still managed to get a few reels of one of the Farnborough air shows in the mid 70s complete with sound  

That does sound a little on the dear side to me Clive.I think I will be attempting to dig my projector and films out one day and see if its feasible to copy with a digital cam corder and then to VCD via the PC as it will not lose much more quality than recording to vhs first and then to disc  

That's a very good idea Sandra.  I've just learned that this exercise has nothing whatsoever to do with me after all.    It's for my brother-in-law who lives in Oxford.  Apparently we had our super 8's transferred to VHS years ago.    Even more scary is that I watched them a few months ago.  What a short memory I have developed.
