hello
just thought Id add my experiences here.
I recently showed a transferred version of my film in a theatre.
We did the transfer the old fashioned way, projecting onto a screen, and filming with a miniDV camera (fancy Sony - prosumer camera).
I set the projector speed to reduce flicker as much as possible.
When we showed the miniDV tape, the image was perfect. I could never afford a super8 projector that could create such a big image, and bright enough for a 200 seater theatre. The quality different was unnoticable (for the audience anyway ;-) )
May have helped it was in black and white.
Cheers

I don't know what kind of projectors they have in theaters, but I would guess that most of them have a 35mm, 16mm and also somekind of videoprojector
Don't know about Helsink or Buenos Aries,but all of the theaters in my neck of the woods (Jacksonville,Fl.USA) are all 35mm platter system type.

thanks for all this experience,
the 2 transfers, one DigiBeta plus one dub MiniDV, sounds quite good. But now I have to find such a producer to put up the money !!
I'm around Montreal, i was told that the nearest real telecine for super 8 facilities (flicker,etc) is in Toronto.
Does someone know a place there ?
