Hi Joe,

I don't have any clue but will ask on Twitter and if I learn anything will pass it on!

Best wishes,

Stevie

I have inherited a bunch of 8mm  home movies dating from 1958 to 1980. Most are of family holidays visiting various landmarks in Europe.

There are about 10 reels. Each reel is 400ft which is about 90 minutes (I think).

I want to get these digitised and post them under a CC-BY-SA license then cut up into short sections related to particular wikipedia articles and added to Commons. There is probably more than half of the movies which can be used this way (we visited a lot of cool places)

I have been quoted £1000 to digitise these. Anyone know of other options for digitising these?

Has anyone got suggestions for the best way to do this?

Joe
