Hi I'm a new member,i make DVD slideshows and edit video as a hobby. I converted a lot of my 8mm reg and super home movies starting i the 50's to DVD using a Eumiq M S 802D & 605D projectors. I lost my manual for the S 802D thats runs reg 8 & super 8. Speacial instructions are needed to change format to prevent damage to the projector. I forgot how to change it, all i need is the instructions to change it. If someone has a S 802D please just tell me how. Also i have a spare 605D for parts. Thanks Bob

This manual should be close enough:

Smart move, Robert.
Several years ago I forgot to position the spindle while replacing the film gate, and I broke the frame advance claw. It cost me $200 to get it fixed.
I don't trust myself not to be careless again, so I use my S802D only for 8mm, and I have a second Eumig for projecting Super 8.
Good luck.

Hi Alan i use my 605D to put reg 8 home movies on DVD taken with a bolex wind up camera in the 50's with fixed focus and i think 4 apputure settings no light meter and the results were exelent. Remember when the kodak color film came with a light chart to set the F stops? I have a old Sony hi 8 video camera with all the manual settings to get the best focus and light adjustment i use in my setup. Bob
