Re: Raspberry Pi computer to control a DIY Super 8 camera

I had been experimenting with a Arduino which is very similar to the Raspberry Pi.

Telecine Capture Mac options

Hello,

Many thanks ...

Wet Gate Telecine - Film-o-clean

Hello,

I wonder if anyone has any experience with the Film-o-Clean wet gate for projectors?

I'm in the US next month and I thought I might pick one up to use with my DIY telecine (image source camera capturing directed from the gate).

Before I shell out $350 I wondered if anyone had any opinions ...
