FilmFix – Customer Testimonial (8mm Digitization)

November 1, 2019

I had some old 8 mm tapes of me surfing and skateboarding in the mid 1960s that I wanted to see and share. I found FilmFix and they provided a professional and personal service. I was able to share my old footage with friends and on Facebook . I highly recommend FilmFix for all your transfer needs.

8mm Film Transfer Expert

Simplify - get your films in a "grab and go" format! We transfer 8mm or Super 8 films onto a handy USB stick (or hard drive.)

Hello, I'm Nathaniel. My wife Laura and I are FilmFix — a two person team.

I am the technical expert with a degree in motion picture and photography, from Brooks Institute, Santa Barbara, CA.

First, your 8mm film will be inspected and carefully cleaned. Then, I'll convert it — from start to finish. These days, most all our customers request that digital files be delivered onto a hard drive or USB stick. However, we can put your transfer on a DVD or Blu-ray disc, if you really prefer that.

While staying local is nice, sometimes it's in your best interest to expand further and find the professional experts who specialize in this sort of transfer. Transferring 8mm film -- the right way -- is highly technical and it requires specialized, pricey equipment.

We're very glad you found us! Let us show you why we have a stellar reputation. Shall we get started on a reasonably-priced estimate?
