Hey guys!
So, I've got an elmo K-100 that I've purchased to try and transfer some old 8mm film reels to my computer, the problem I'm having is the unit appears to be making the film slightly shaky, or jumpy. I've tried my hardest to find an answer to the problem out in the great wide world of the internet, but i've only been able to narrow it down to an alignment issue. I've found several cases where people claimed that this was due to the film gate being not aligned, and sure enough if I apply pressure to the gate with my finger the problem resolves. I've tried doing some adjustments to the gate and it's gotten a bit better, but doesn't seem to go way completely.
Am I missing something? Is this a lost cause? is there a part that needs to be replaced?
Any help would be wonderful, even if that help is just a nudge in the right direction.
Again, the unit is an Elmo k-100.
Thanks in advance!
