A new era of home videos

5/22/2020

Comments

 

A lot of millennials have family inheritances of 8mm and 16 mm movies which hold the times gone by and an era of memories, people and events. Do you wish to remember your first birthday party and share the joy with your children? Or that picnic on the beach, where the whole family buried you under the sand? You may have all such footage on hand, but no way of using them maybe because of outdated VHS players are no longer available or that the video is grainy and would just disappoint this new generation with its low quality. In today’s day and age, you can use an 8mm film to digital conversion service, that will give you ease in viewing and also increase the shelf life of the footage.

How to convert 8mm to DVD?
Getting the help of an 8mm to digital film conversion service is your safest bet. You can avoid the arduous task of doing it yourself. It fastens your process and gives you a chic quality, but it can also weigh heavy on your pocket, especially if the films are really old and in despair. Even though the cost is an issue, one cannot put a price on recovering old memories.

Few things to consider before hiring an 8mm to digital service

Can they work with your format of footage?
Most home footage is on 8mm, and that can be converted into digital films using professional scanners. Make sure your service provider can bring out the best from your footage. If you are a filmmaker and are looking to convert 16mm footage, the service should provide expertise in this format.
What are the underlying costs?
Find out the cost before placing your order so that you can get an idea of how it will impact your budget.
What type of equipment is used?
The type of scanning machine used will impact the conversion of your 8mm movie and the same goes for 16mm footage. A professional scanner will be best suited to bring out your desired results.
What do the customers say?
Passionate people do an expert job and are as committed to your cause as you are. Find a service that shows passion as well as professional expertise. Online reviews are always helpful in selecting the best option in the market.
Which Video formats to go with?
A DVD is played on your TV or computer with a DVD player, but the video is not as bright as your original movies. A Blu-ray video is high definition. Plus, the videos are as sharp as the originals.
Whomever you choose, make sure that you are confident in your decision. It is a great chance to restore the quality of picture and sound and thus bring back the heritage in its original form. If you are even the tiniest bit unsure about handling 8mm and 16mm films, let the professionals handle it.
