Here is one mpg-file (a big one, about 58Mbits) of my WP transfer demo, I showed to the public during the first Finnish 8/16 mm forum http://www.digivideo.org/forum/list.php?f=14 meeting 7.9.2002 at Espoo, Finland:
http://www.sorb-i-tol.com/wp3transferservice.mpg
The meeting was totally success.
We had about 30-40 participants, about 30 different kind of cameras from standard 8 to really expensive crystal synched Arriflex SRII (16 mm), sound eguipment (including absolute mint stereo Nagra), film cartridges from Polarvision to 50 meter super 8, a lot of books, old magazines, Steinbeck's both super 8 and 16 cutting boards etc.
Also we had many demos during this day including my WP-demo (and I immediately received 30 cartridges for transfer!) , Mikko's super sound striping demo, Lauri Hirvonen's history (he wrote many articles of single and super 8 cameras and projectors to Finnish magazines during 70's), Arriflex SRII/Krasnogorsk-3/Nagra-demo and finally absolutely great demo from mister Jan-Erik Nyström (the man behind this Animato-site: http://www.sci.fi/~animato/.
During evening and night we watched lot of 16 mm and super 8 films including Anssi Puisto's http://www.kolumbus.fi/puistot/ nice music videos.
I'll make also a little mpg-movie of that meeting, when I'll receive all material.

Holy smoke!
It took me a long time to download, even with DSL, but it was worth the wait. Terrific looking stuff, Jukka.
If anyone can afford the time to download the demo you won't be dissapointed. Some of this footage looks so UN-like super 8 or Kodachrome it is not to be believed. Really first rate work.
Congrats, Jukka, and good luck with your transfer business. Can I put a link to your demo on my website about the WorkPrinters? I'm not generally a big fan of streaming video on the web due to a very "iffy" quality issue but I want everyone to see this if they can. Just outstanding. Nice music, too!
My best,
Roger

Thanks Roger for your comments!
Of course you can put that link to your site or even
upload that clip to your web-server.
Indeed it's very big file (+ also over 5 minutes long).
Music is my own too, composed and played by myself (= sorb-i-tol).
These extreme sport clips are shot by one Finnish guy at France during last Winter.
I transfered for them about 47 minutes of very good looking super 8 films, which will be a part of one Finnish snowboard/skate/extreme-sport-whatever movie.
The rest clips are from my personal side, some of time lapse parts (especially that clip of our goats) are very new ones, shot by myself during August 2002 with these new fresh Kodak K40.
BTW. I had possibility to compare for example material shot with Krasnogorsk-3 (to negative and direct ranked and color corrected) material, even same kind of ski/snowboard stuff at our meeting during last Saturday and honestly my WP transfer clips looked almost as good as these 16 mm clips!
And my transfer demo contains only raw material without any color corrections etc.
Comparing clips shot with Arriflex SRII there were more differences, but not much as I thought before!

PS. Hey, I just came back home from Helsinki and I met one guy who offered a nice deal to me: He has 30 hours (!!) super 8 material, he wants me to transfer and doing it I'll get a lot of super 8 stuff.
I already get all service manuals/drawings etc. for Beaulieu camera models from 1008 to 6008 and R16, sound striping machine (same like Mikko has, made in Germany), a lots of spare parts for Beualieu cameras, special calibrating machine for Beaulieu cameras (I think It's made in Beaulieu camera factory) and one 4008 ZMII camera body.
He has also a lot of magneting tapes for sound striping, 3 Beualieu cameras more (3008s, 5008s and 4008ZM) + two Canon ones (mint Scoopic DS8 and 814) + different lenses and adapters (including 2 Zeiss zooms, Fujica ZC1000 lense, he has used with Beualieu, Angenieux with Arri mount etc.).
To transfer 30 hours of material with WP-3 would be impossible mission, but I think I'd offer him some kind of compromise type of deal (= I'll do a part of transfer using projector and video camera and the most important parts I'll transfer using WP).

Jukka,
After reading Roger's rave review of your transfer, I'd really like to see it. Unfortunately, I and many others still use slow dialup connections, so downloading a 50+ mb file is difficult (and in many cases imposibble). I'm curious if you'd consider putting an edited demo--say one minute or so--on your website. Using the same quality settings, this would make the file about 10mb in size. I'm sure many more people would be able to view it that way.
