Can I say that I have found the Retro-8 an absolute dream to work with. Until last year, I was in a job that I loved for many years, but I'd finally got tired of. I wanted something that didn't necessitate lifting heavy machinery about.

Re: Retro-8 Film Scanner Review
Sorry to hear about the flu bug in your area, Roger - hope you're on the mend now. I managed - for the first time ever - to get through the entire year of 2013 without so much as a single cold! I still can't believe it! (Should I be superstitious about posting that comment???)

Re: Retro-8 Film Scanner Review
I'm having the time of my life with my new Retro-8. If anyone thinks they are having a problem, you might learn from my experience....

Hi. I received my Retro-8 machine on Christmas Eve, took a break for a couple of days along with most other people, and got the machine set up and running yesterday. First impression is simply: WOW!
I'm gonna take the next month or so to learn how to use it properly (enjoying in the process seeing ...

Re: Retro-8 Film Scanner Review
Roger, I'm 100% sympathetic to your position, but all I ask is that I'm kept informed of how my order is progressing.

Re: Retro-8 Film Scanner Review
Cheers, Roger. (He just sent me a very nice email.)

Colin.
