yes, a HD version would be the ideal, but lets face it we have to be realistic here. No professional transfer house will touch this with a barge pole. Even a DVD version will still be better than what we have now: the GOUT.

 

Well, obviously it's not something we'd be able to do in the open.  Personally, I think we've talked about this far too much out in the open as it is.  We'd just have to find someone who knew someone who knew someone...and go from there.

We'd also need someone who lives in a major city that would have something like this available to them.

And nyc, the capture is/would be the same (if I read it right on what is being done) so if the reel messed up during the capture it would make no difference if it was for an SD or HD project....cause if theyre using a modded scanner, then the scans are gonna be in HD

 

 I'm not talking about the actual scan process.  I'm saying something stupid happening like a reel being lost...or torn...or someone spilling something on it.  There are any number of things that can screw up when these prints are handled.
