AndrewT Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I was cleaning house last weekend and found a bunch of old home movies and dumb tapes from high school. I want to get them off the tapes some how, but no longer have my old camera. If anyone has an old 8mm camera( small tape about 3" maybe) they'd be willing to lend me for a day as well as and idea how to get them on another format id be eternally grateful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Getting them to another format isn't hard. The harder part will be getting them off the 8mm tapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewT Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah but where do you even buy those at. I went to best buy and asked the other day and they pretty much laughed at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjohn Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 They used to do this a video rental stores. I'd look in the yellow pages and get on the phone to compare prices. Old school but it works sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mcallahan Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Andrew- If you get your hands on a camera, I have a DV bridge where we can import the footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
