Maybe, Paul,

The image quality will be limited by the quality of the projector lens, the screen properties and the lens of the K1.

The source films are with playing little children, cameraman with unsteady hands and camera maybe with simple fixed focus lens. From what I have seen: the original is not high technical quality anyhow. It is the emotional value that I want to reproduce at a quality level not (much) lower than the original.

Could you indicate why the K1 is ill suited?

But why remains a question. You can't duplicate the quality of film transfer by 
trying to shoot it with a dslr.

Thanks Mike, you are right if the mechanical shutter would be used for video, 
but I would expect the that The K1 uses the electronic shutter, is that not the 
case?

Not so much ill-suited but for every minute of film you'll put about 1500
exposures on your shutter.  An hour and a half's film would pretty much wear the
camera out.

Thank you for your response, Paul.

Could you plse indicate which properties (or lack of properties) make
the K1 ill suited for this task?

I could hand the films over to a specialized company, but I enjoy so
much doing things myself :-)

Greetz, Jos

No, it's not a good idea. A DSLR is ill suited to the task of movie film
transfer. There are machines that transfer film quickly and efficiently, as
well as hundreds of companies that offer the service.

Dear group,

I have this box with 50year old 8mm family films.

I want to digitize them for distribution to my children.

Is it a good idea to use my K1 for this? Any experience?

Greetz, Jos
