I have several scanners and the simplest and at the same time good quality is the one that is similar to what Nantawat did. Modified projector with the led light, reduce the motor speed by installing a power resistor (stepper motor is an alternative but more work) and then using a good quality macro lens and a good quality camera. I run the camera in video mode at 30FPS and the projector anywhere between 4 and 8 FPS and then remove the flicker using the getdups Avisynth script. Gives you 99% clean video.

Hi Phillip... Before I got a 16mm frame by frame projector I used a real-time setup like Nantawat described. The problem with real time 16 mm transferring is ghosting. I was only able to eliminate the ghosting by using a movie stuff frame-by-frame projector.
Here are some of my videos for reference.
Realtime Elmo 16CL (3 blade shutter)
Realtime Keystone K-160 (3 blade shutter)
Frame by Frame Moviestuff Eiki 16mm

Thank you Janice for your input and videos. While I would absolutely love to have a setup like yours, I just can't afford it. Of all the hundreds of 8mm, super8mm, taped movies/videos and slides I have done over the past couple of years I have had only one complaint. A lady I did a wedding video for said the people were moving too fast. I simply used my video editor and slowed them down and everything was good.Comment

Nice setup Janice. Was ghosting issue caused by a glass mirror or it was a different issue?Comment
