    16mm film and 16mm film with sound was usually sold in 100 foot increments or spliced onto different sizes of reels. If your 16mm film is really old these splices have likely come undone. We will repair every splice and clean your 16mm film before converting using our "Direct to Digital" transfer method. We always record full frame and hand adjust for quality, colour and contrast. Our editors will then do a further quality improvement by reviewing the entire capture before outputting to your desired format - hard drive, DVD, MPEG, H264, or MOV.
