I phone transfer.

Post by mr8mm »

I saw an adapter that allows a Canon SLR lens to be adapted to an iphone for about $200. So, I thought why can't an iphone be adapted to a film transfer unit. Anyone got an idea? The sound of the projector could be used to trigger the camera to advance one frame. I think if the sound wave of the projector is analysed there will be correlation with frame movement. When the frame is in palce the camera would store the frame. All we need is an app.

When the projector is crystal sync'ed, then you can simply use the app "FiLMiC Pro" to shoot at e.g. 18fps.

And somebody to do the programming of it (the app) :)

The Canon SLR (EOS?) projects the image onto a groundglass thing?
Kind regards,
