Quality Flat Film Laminating Machine Servo Company

This is great for a school setting, or anywhere that has a laminating machine. I could see the posters getting messed up if you hang it up as is, but after being laminated its just fine.

Almost like laminating before printing! I just started to use it and wish it were available when I was in school!!

Good Bang for the Buck! Having owned a flat bed film scaner, this product, hands down is more productive when scanning large quanities... 200 +... (my recent project is appox 800)... quality of the scans = A+ (7200 dpi) speed of scans = A+ Color quality = B+ (now that could be an A or A+, but i'm using slide film from 20 years ago)

We are an independent film company

god basic film. Dries flat

This is probably the best film holder you can find for flat bed scanning!

I usually don't write reviews on something I purchased elsewhere, but the Wolverine MovieMaker was not available at B&H when I found it on the manufacturer's website. Now that it is I feel compelled to add my 2 cents. I am absolutely thrilled that I can convert my old Super 8 movies from the '70s into digital format and play back on my computer, TV (they include the cable), share with friends and family, on an inexpensive and very well put together and simple to use machine. You can then edit it with any free software (I use VLC), adjust the playback speed for 18 or 24 fps, add sound, voice over, adjust color, then upload to YouTube or share any way you want. I am really thrilled with this product .I don't care that it takes 30 minutes, it's automatic! You put the film reel on, thread it, push the button, and go have a sandwich. As far as the output quality, these were amateur films, the quality wasn't great to begin with and no machine will make them any better. As far as I can tell, whatever is on the film comes out just as good on the conversion. I was married in 1972 and until now the only way I could see videos of my wedding were by setting up the old machine, screen, etc. Or buy the $1,300. unit B&H also sells. I'm so happy Wolverine made this unit! I plan to buy another (from B&H this time 'cause they're the best) to give as a Christmas gift. Would I recommend it? In a heartbeat.

This digitizer easily exceeds the quality of the 8 mm films I am converting to digital. I know there are more expensive and higher quality solutions out there but for amateur films made on wind up movie cameras from the 40s and 50s on into the 60s this easily fits the bill. It is slow but I'm not in a hurry. It takes 29 minutes to do a 50 foot roll. I like the fact that it can handle 9 inch reels although some of my Father's 9 inch reels have multiple breaks in the film. I just insert the broken end back into the feed without splicing and continue. I then manually wrap a turn or two of the broken end around the take up reel while it's digitizing. Rewind requires swapping the reels which is probably cost savings in the price of the machine. Rewind is also very slow but I appreciate the slowness because I don't want to see this fragile film whipping by at any kind of speed. I use Adobe Premiere Elements to adjust the speed about 30-40 percent slower. Premier also easily splices together broken film fragments as well as allows me to caption or freeze a frame for 5 seconds in order to linger on something important. In summary I am very satisfied with the job this machine does.

Really good quality black and white film from a great film company. If you are looking to shoot some black and white photos this an excellent option!

All the other quick releases would not fit on my monopod including the quick release made by the monopod company. This release has a flat botom and will fit on anything .
