🙂 I have in my loft quite a few old cine films taken in the 80’s including some airshows and some of the “Memphis Belle ” filming taken from outside Duxford.
I have tried converting them onto VHS by putting the video camera alongside the projector.The results are OK at best but leave alot of loss picture quality.
There are obviously commercial businesses that will do it but who do you trust and without bankrupting yourself.
Has anyone else managed to transfer cine- vhs [hopefully in the near future dvd as i am getting a dvd recorder.]
I was surprised how well the cine films have stood up to time,they are still watchable and the silent film [with the clatter of the projector] makes them seem old.
Any advice would be appreciated.
If i can get them put onto dvd i would consider letting the foootage be used if anyone else on the forum had cine film converted to make up a dvd for other members .
We’ve shared photos and slides on here,how many others have old cine films that could be put together.

Hi.
I have a bag full of 8mm film from airshows from the 70, am looking for a
projector on ebay to copy them to video.

Well no actually.
If you bothered to read the posts you’d see that the idea is to encourage new people to come along.

You’d be welcome too but it seems to me you’d rather just sit back and be critical.

It’s shame really that people are so negative. In the last year a group of like minded people have got to be friends in a way that will probably long outlast this forum. I personally have been places that I would never have dreamed of getting into.

I’ve made firm friends in Australia, New Zealand and America also in several European countries.
No one ever said this is a club and you can’t join and I’ve never heard it said to anyone else.
So it’s up to you if want to participate or not.
If you don’t, it’s no skin off my nose–your loss actually.
Seeing as you don’t pay anything for the upkeep of this site–what’s your problem?

See you at Twinwoods and Harrington then?

I have read them all and i’m not being critical. I just think there’s not a lot about historic aviation i the whole thread that’s all. So wind your neck in 😀

Can anybody on here tell me why this is not on gen /dis and why it’s got 5 stars, no wonder people say it’s one big clique on here.this has nothing to do with historic aviation 😀

Ok Phil,

When you go to you account you will see under your pic three areas that you can highlight the last one is the one you want to highlight and then go up to your edit bar click copy then come over here and jit edit and it will come up saying paste presto you have your pic.

Cheers

Frustrated in Blackpool. 😀

Thanks Flood.
Phil.

How would you react if one day an exact duplicate of you (Identical in every way, looks, clothes, speech, mannersims) turned up and introduced themselves to you ?.

But how would that be possible, do they make them in all age groups 😀
