I had our 8mm film converted to VHS in 1997. Time & technology dictated that it was time to have the film converted to digital. After researching & reviewing many companies that could do the work, I settled on FilmFix, as I felt that they could do the transfer right.
The first thing that I found, starting with the test reel that FilmFix digitized was that Laura & Nathaniel’s customer service was exceptional (frankly, second to none) and it continued to be so throughout the entire process. They answered all of my general & technical questions to the depth that I required. The care and handling of our film was, as with everything FilmFix does, exceptional.
As for the quality of the final digitized product, it is remarkable. Nathan did a great job. Not only did we gain 40% more viewable film than we had before, but that coupled with the image stabilization, debris removal, & color correction brought the digital results to a level I thought would not be possible.
For anyone thinking about having their film professionally digitized, you can have sub-standard film transfers done for less or even more money elsewhere (depending on who you choose), but in the end you will regret it. Don’t compromise on quality or service, choose FilmFix.

8mm Film Transfer Expert
Simplify - get your films in a "grab and go" format! We transfer 8mm or Super 8 films onto a handy USB stick (or hard drive.)
Hello, I'm Nathaniel. My wife Laura and I are FilmFix — a two person team.
I am the technical expert with a degree in motion picture and photography, from Brooks Institute, Santa Barbara, CA.
First, your 8mm film will be inspected and carefully cleaned. Then, I'll convert it — from start to finish. These days, most all our customers request that digital files be delivered onto a hard drive or USB stick. However, we can put your transfer on a DVD or Blu-ray disc, if you really prefer that.
While staying local is nice, sometimes it's in your best interest to expand further and find the professional experts who specialize in this sort of transfer. Transferring 8mm film -- the right way -- is highly technical and it requires specialized, pricey equipment.
We're very glad you found us! Let us show you why we have a stellar reputation. Shall we get started on a reasonably-priced estimate?
