Eddieq Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Hi All I’ve recently acquired a number of original HJ film reels. They are all original recruiting/ advertising reels that were played in Kino’s and rally’s - however, I have no means of playing them or digitising them. There are lots of things out there that will allow you to digitise negatives but the only thing I can find to play/digitise these reels are north of £3k! Does anyone have any ideas or links to anything more affordable/a business that can do it for a fee/ commission? Thanks E 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 You could either look for an old second hand projector (of the correct film size) somewhere or maybe get them digitalised in a copy shop, depending on the cost. A smartphone or i-phone might also be usefull. Or look for some ideas in the internet such as this: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddieq Posted December 31, 2021 Author Share Posted December 31, 2021 Hi, thanks for this, I’ll look into it further. I think the main issues is that they are cinema projector film reels, not home movies, so finding something portable/ table sized to play them is the difficult part.

Fritz Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Probably the old 16mm type? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
