Information overload - the good kind! Thanks everyone. Did I make a newby mistake? I thought "dual" meant Super 8 and Regular 8 - is that right?

anyway, i'm glad ...

Thanks Dave!

Hey Dave - we actually talked on the Canopus forum and you gave me all kinds of advice on cleaning film and Canopus! What a small web! :D I ended up getting the ADVC-300 despite some of its features being overkill for the film transfer, but I also have some video to transfer and, well, I never saw a ...

Hello - I thought I would wake up this old thread vs. starting a new one. I recently purchased a Workprinter then upgraded it to a DV Sniper (single CCD). I am not a pro and am doing all this to manage nearly 200 reg and super 8 family movies. Roger is a great guy and I feel like I have pestered him ...
