Re: 8mm/S8 conversion

I haven't had experience with the box, but I got good results by projecting
in image about 18" or so onto a piece of white poster board in a dimly lit
room. Also, make sure the projector is in perfect focus before worrying
about getting the camcorder focused. I also had some film that was just
plain shot slightly out of focus. It can really drive you nuts.
