Video 8 Media has two telecine suites, both comprising Rank Cintel telecines fitted with Digital Vision Noise Reduction (DVNR) systems and Pandora Pogle colour correctors. The main machine is a Cintel Ursa Diamond with Y-Front, SCAN'dal & TWiGi, considered the most advanced Digital SD flying-spot telecine ever produced.

Our telecines have additional modifications including a DGS Quattroscan framestore and Metaspeed, allowing transfers at any frame rate from 1fps to 60 fps.

As these machines do not require pin registration and use a capstan to gently pull the film across the scanning tube in a smooth, continuous fashion, they are perfect for dealing with often fragile or shrunken archival film material.

Our telecines have a variety of gates that can handle 8mm, 16mm and 35mm formats as negative or positive with magnetic stripe, optical or double-head audio. We can transfer your film to any of our video formats, file formats or to a DVD or BluRay.
