whilst operating screen exhibits please recheck films place and stops no mention of this in opp.manual have e mailed wolverine several times with no responce

16 frames per second ? Super 8 silent was 18 fps and 24 fps with sound. Big, big fail !

AFTER THIS VIDEO I GOT RELIEF AND SATISFACTION HAVING CHINA BAD WORKING TOY, CALLED WOLVERINE. THIS ATTRACT CHARM RE-PRESENTER-LADY MUCH BETTER AND QUICKLY RISE MY MOOD, THANKS.

I got a Wolverine. It works fine for most of the film except: If you have video with a bright sky and dark ground (typical outside video over a long distance) the scanner can't seem to make up its mind regarding light intensity such that about every 8 frames it goes dark for a few frames and then lightens up. So it essentially flashes. I could not find any method to stop this and my editing software doesn't have a fix for this. Old film curls from side to side and becomes stiff. The device doesn't flatten the film and it gets out of focus. Using a sprocket to advance the stiff and warped film constantly fails because of the curled up edges coming out of the sprocket. I have film going back to the mid 40's and from the early 50's to 1944, I have problems with degraded film. Oddly some of it works fine - B&W, sepia, and some color film especially if it is thin acetate. The images are there, but the acetate doesn't want to feed through the device. It would be nice if they would give a bigger take up reel than 200 ft.

thumbs up + I subscribed thank you for your time :)

your cute and I still love you even though you started with the film backwards! I enjoyed your informative video, now its my turn to do this...

thanks for help just got one is there place to buy a another reel

I think this is great 👍 I would love to get one and then. Edit down to 16 my uncle did my dads side of the family and it was expensive my moms side had so much more that I just want to do it myself with Final Cut Pro thank you for sharing

GIRL - LOSE THAT CRAZY HEAVY MAKEUP.

china garbage!!!!

What editing software can I use to slow the film down? what have you used that works? Great video by the way.

I wondered when and if you were going to realize that you put the film on the wrong way. I’ll give you credit for catching yourself.

Hi :P

i used to do my own telecine, is the wolverine worth it ?? Can fragile films work getting converted, what about gaps with missing sprockets ??

I'm very interested in this movie digitizer as I have an entire box full of 8mm and Super 8 home movies from the 1950's to the 1980's. A lot of sentimental value. Just wondering if it has a USB port that I can plug into my computer, and if so does it come with editing software?

I tried building a trnsfer machine for many years, much fail. super 8 really does not need 1080HD, 720 works great. post processing thru after fx works and stablization makes difference.

Hmmmmm. A few issues with this review. You focus too much on aspects of the machine that don't matter. Who cares if the device is noisy? The issue of it being slow is kind of negligible. As long as I don't have to babysit it. Once it starts, it should do its thing. What matters is: how good is the scan quality? Is it reliable? How well can the scans be plaid back / converted for use elsewhere?

You put the film in the wrong way to put it back on the yellow reel... probably the film is now damaged because of the contact with the scanning part. Great.

The speed, after scanning with some 8mm film scanners, is higher than the original speed. For some, after scanning for Mp4, it should be reduced to around -60%. Is that also the case for the Wolverine?

New drinking game.... take a drink everytime she says "actually" or "slash"

I think this also takes out the risk of leaving or sending off your film. Costco transfers film..but it leaves the building..home movies too valuable to let get lost by some mistake.

So you have put the film in the wrong way. Do you know how to edit your videos?

At least you won't run the risk of burning your film

What about 8mm with audio, daoes it convert audio too? Or does it record without audio?

After finishing can you just use a 50 foot reel with the finished product and keep using the new ones as the take up reels? Assuming the reels aren’t labeled? That would save time i think 🤔

I HAVE THIS UNIT I DO FRIENDS FILmS FOR $10.00 per 50ft roll and $ 35.00 for 200 FT ROLL i use a second projector for rewinding. alo charge $ 10.0 to burn an hour of film to dvd.

30 fps is the video frame rate not the shutter speed, 16 or 18 is the shutter speed that 8mm & Super 8 run at. From the spec, it looks like this unit will play your film at 20fps after conversion. If you have less than 30 small reels, we can convert it professionally at much higher quality for about the same price or less. createmydvd.com

I read somewhere... It encodes at 30 fps because the microprocessor that does all the number crunching is hard wired at 30 fps, and there isn't another chip in existence that will encode at a rate you specify. It's 30 or nothing.

Also, does it rely on the perforations on the film to move accurately through each frame?

Hola estos comentarios se pueden traducir? me interesa algo así pero tengo entendido que capturan la imagen pero no el audio y quiero saber si es cierto.gracias

WHAT IS PREMIERE AND WHERE CAN I GET IT AT ?

You rewound it wrong lol

Thanks for the video, Perfect!

Can the output that is on the sd card be loaded into imovie and then slowed down and edited? Some of the reals I want to copy have blank spaces and I would like to add music. Also can you load the file onto the iMac to store it and re use the sad cards?

Found some Super 8 films under the bed - now I wonder what they could be?

You should review the KODAK SCANZA Digital Film & Slide Scanner next.

18fps - not 16fps.

Having bought one myself, I can honestly say, these things are junk. Not worth $20, let alone $300.

BoneHead rewound the film back on to the reel BACKWARDS. But she is an "Expert"

Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bal.

Might get this but here in Canada it is $550. Gonna try projecting onto a screen and capturing with a camera and see if we can get away with it (we still have a projector working)

thank you very much thumb up

You're wrong 1080p or 4k ie easily done from film. You're demonstrating a inferior product. The equivocation of film to video resolution is nonsense, that's why there are allot ot movies shot on film from the 1930s-70s that are BD 1080P qnd 4k Full res. FILM is light captured NOT pixels or lines. If the lenses, film, lighting were of high quality you can have any video format you like with quality equipment. Obviously not for these $300 for that you get junk like this. Point is you should have said this machine is limited because you get what you pay for, and if you want quality results find proper film lab and ask for 30 second samples before paying . Less hassle and whatever resolution you want. 8mm and 16mm can easily goto any existing video standard nativley (without phoney upscaling)

I might buy this. But if you actually have a 8mm projector you can simply project it on a white surface and video it with a digital video camera or even your phone on a tripod. It will even pick up the sound if you have it. That's what I have been doing.

This is a just slightly above the category of a toy. Film transfer should be performed by a professional. Look for a local transfer specialist. Looking for the "cheapest" should not be the only factor when transferring what undoubtedly is precious family memories. Costco and the like just put your reels into a box and sends them away to be transferred. Of course if this is the ONLY way a family can afford to have their precious family memories transferred, then it will do an ok job.

Digitizes it into something you can actually watch? Ever heard of something called a PROJECTOR? I own two of them.

There is a Pro model that is about $100 to $150 more. It allows for the larger reels, is 1080p at 20FPS, and inside has a drive gear rather than a rubber belt.

You can upload the .mov file that it creates to Photoshop CC and I think I saw a message the other day that read "convert frames to layers" That's probably how you get the photo from the movie.

Windows movie maker is not working for me since I saved all my movies to MP4 format. Evidently this format is not compatible with Windows Movie maker. Can anyone suggest a solution? Can I convert these files to another format?
