Recommendations request

Post by Chinese Belle »

I have several S8 frames I want to get blown up and printed - maybe as big as 36 x 27 inches.


Anyone can recommend a place and/or workflow?

Thanks

I would use a Nikon Coolscan V film scanner, then resize - resample it larger, and finally output onto a large format HP Inkjet. Sounds nicer if you use that French word 'Giclee' instead of inkjet print.

I have a "rondo copy tube"
it´s a simple tube with a m42 thread that you can
put in front of a SLR camera
you put the super8 frame you want to shoot in front of it
..hold the photo camera against a light source and shoot a picture of it..

so you get a super8 to 35mm blow up..
works fine for me

you find them on ebay sometimes
