Small Film Digitisation
Give your memories a second life
Boxes full of 8mm or Super 8 film reels? Don’t let them gather dust any longer. At Kamera Express, you can have your films professionally converted into razor-sharp digital video files through MEDIAFIX. This way, you can relive your family moments and easily share them with everyone who wants to enjoy them too.
Why digitise my small film?
Film deteriorates over time, increasing the risk of shrinking, scratches, and colour fading.
Projectors are hardly available anymore and difficult to maintain.
Digital files can be viewed instantly on modern devices and shared with a single click.
How does the digitisation request work?
We collaborate with MEDIAFIX — Europe’s market leader and TÜV-certified — to ensure reliable and careful digitisation of your film reels.
