    That's a good start. Prices seem a bit high. One criticism I have is I would NEVER transfer 9 Minutes of Super-8 film onto A 10 min Beta-Cam SP tape, OR 18 minutes of Super-8 film onto a 20 min Beta-Cam sp tape...

    The price differential between a 10 minute Beta-Cam SP tape and a 30 minute Beta-Cam SP tape is literally under a dollar! Sometimes a scene may be transferred twice for esthetic reasons. When you add in black at the front of the videotape, color bars, then more black, which is the normal procedure for a film to tape transfer, and then add some black at the end of the videotape, it's silly to barely be able to fit your whole transfer onto the videotape.

    You're spending hundreds of dollars on the transfer, they're saving FIFTY CENTS TO ONE DOLLAR on the tape stock, that's the difference in price between a 10 minute Betacam SP stock and a 30 minute tape stock!
