If you’re a movie buff, do you remember the harsh vinegar scent from reels of home movie film, the cellulose acetate plastic? The hissing sound of the clunky projector? The clang from the sprockets of deteriorating nitrate film? Well, if you do, we have a real treat for you.

We transfer 8mm film to DVD. We provide you with a box of prepaid reels so that you can send us your old home movies for conversion.

With the new ScanMyPhotos.com movie scanning service, you can now easily download all of those old home movie film reels. Every film frame is individually digitized to create sharp screenshots to share on all photo-sharing apps. Your old 8mm film would look AMAZING in high-definition video on your smartphone.

We offer convenient and affordable old-home movie conversions from 8mm film to MP4 if you don’t have time to do it yourself.
