Thanks for clearing it up and all the replies.
Fortnaulety as far as I know unless there are more films over my brother's my late father only had one Reg 8mm reel, although my eldest brother feels he did use a Reg 8 Projector in the 60's etc before he moved onto Super 8 sound films during a trip we took in 1968, so makes me wonder, as knowing my father he would not of chucked any films out. pity as what is on this reel is us moving into our family home from what I can tell through a viewer. But not worth me getting another projector to play one reel. I see what it will cost to get it and one other older Super 8 reel professionaly coverted to digital, as I am in process of doing rest myself.
Done a lot of reading of sites and you tube videos on how to do it, including posts here by people.
When one considers what 200feet would cost to get professionaly done from one quote I got, $180 AUD$, sheesh the trip we took to New Zealand in 1972 would be expensive, 6 x 400feet reels with sound. A Used Telceine is worth around 3k and I am not confvinced the outcome is as good as professionals say from you tube videos I have seen of some finished product. Cheers Phil
