Good luck finding someone to transfer those prints, Negative 1. You're gonna need it. ;-) Anyway, I'm sure a solution will eventually present itself, and when it does, it will be a day long remembered. I also agree. It is better to do it right than fast. Wait for a 4K or 2K scan instead of getting a quick and dirty SD scan or 1080p scan.

 thanks,

 

well, the only thing to do is to keep looking (as i've been trying),

and hopefully one day things will work out.. however, it's hard

to keep something limited to just a few people, with the great

amount of interest in it... also, realistically, finding people who

could do this properly, and handle all the logistics of working

with the data and restoring the film, is also a major factor.

 

money might be an issue, but its never gotten far enough

for it to come up yet.. and that's something that i would

rather shield people from, since it creates more problems..

 

later
