Prevent
Lost MemoriesMold, mildew, and fungi are different types of damage that can occur to 8mm and
16mm film. Improperly stored films, especially those in hot and humid climates or damp locations such as basements, attics, or garages,
are prone to such attacks, and can damage your films forever.
Obsolete
Equipment Older equipment used to watch 8mm films are no longer made, and can be very costly
to repair. A restored projector can sell for $600, and a single replacement lamp for a projector can cost as much
as much as $60.
Find Your Favorite Moments Quickly Eliminate the need to manually fast forward or rewind through
your video tapes to find your favorite scene. Using the DVD chapter menu and scene selection, you can skip through your video
to particular scene in seconds, and browse from one film to the next.
