Dear All, A local production company was giving away a 16mm Steenbeck editing table for the cost of its removal so naturally I enlisted the help of three strong men and brought it home and now it occupies a prominent place in my living room, since it is impossible to get up the stairs or fit into any other room. After testing the unit it works fine and having only used hand-cranked reels up to now this seems like pure joy.
However, I wanted to know if anyone can shed light on any of these issues in order to make the machine practical for my personal use: Has anyone turned one of these into a telecine unit (D.I.Y. or Steenbeck factory)? Approximate costs involved? Has anyone made theirs S16 (viewing) compatible? Approximate costs involved? Any way to view neg. film stock as positive on the screen? Any other new ways to put these machines to good use? Appreciate your input!
