    Modding the Kodak Reels 8mm Film Digitizer (Firmware Hack)

    If you still have a blue shift when you set a +2.0 WB, that would mean I have to increase the range in the firmware. So that would be useful feedback.

    You just have the white balance wrong. You have the White Balance at 0, is should be +1.5 or +2.0 for this film. The white balance is reset with each firmware update.

    What do the scans look like, overexposed? Those images look very overexposed at the source, in the film tray and on the LCD. Histogram shows the overexposure. Try a different section as Type C firmware is working fine. Here is mine Type C with the same ISO 100, 2047us exposure. I can see...

    Can you confirm if it is after 16384 frames (15m10s at 18fps)? If so that is an easy fix.

    What was the last version that worked on 64GB cards or larger? I don't use these cards as you can do firmware updates for anything other than FAT32, so I missed when this broke.

    The changes are documented in the boot screen messaging. V6.9 adds: Exposure stats (to the LCD), Green Tint < or > (buttons) and EV bias + or - buttons in capture.

    @jackmonte1987 You do need to install the latest firmware. That is not current.

    Your example footage didn't look particular green to me. The green tint is the middle value. 256 is neutral. 114 minimum, 368 maximum.

    It works with 32GB cards, standard FAT32 formatting. The histogram fails on 64GB, I will have to look into that next.

    No, green tint for white balance is < and > buttons, EV (exposure bias) is new, and use + and - buttons, but only during capture. These are explained (so briefly) on the boot screen. There is no correct setting, just what looks good to you.

    All updated to V6.9, types A, B and C. I reduced the EV range to be more subtle, so larger values might be required. I was reacting to this comment "EV1 is a little to dark, ev 2 is too bright". EV +2 now more is like the last EV +1. This does not make the scan brighter or darker directly...

    Modding the Kodak Reels 8mm Film Digitizer (Firmware Hack)

    Some of us didn't have a past shot in film, or experienced shooting it ourselves. I've always worked in tech related to film and TV production (editing and camera tech), but my first camera was S-VHS-C in 1990. Then this series personally owned camera tech: several MiniDVs, then HDV, then...

    That is what happen to me. I shot my last Maui vacation in Super8 and used Super8 elements in my latest 48 hour competition film I also develop at home, as have the scanner after all.

    I don't know about film cleaning. I leave that to others more experienced, as I've mostly been scanning my own shot film more recently. You should set color settings once per reel, as the tint of the aged film should be constant for the reel. There will be some white balance variations, scene...

    @jackmonte1987 This is all addressed in the V6.9 build I posted yesterday. Only for Type B, as I wanted a few testers, but I will create Type A and C builds shortly.
