If you really want HD for sketches and tests, then borrow an XH-A1 (or similar) and project the film onto a piece of matte board (more smooth and even than a wall) getting the camera as close to the projector as possible to minimize parallax. The results can be surprisingly good. Probably best to use manual iris bracket exposures, and do a few takes.
If you want high quality stills, try to borrow an analytic projector, or some other model with a pause function that will project a still frame without burning up the film. Then shoot that with a DSLR. There's more detail in 16mm than any HD transfer can capture. Unless it's footage you know you want to use for a serious project / finished product paying for a good frame-by-frams scan isn't cost effective. _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list [email protected] https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
