Thank you ThePhage! And thanks to 0Dan0 and VideoDoctor as well for your answers! I'll elaborate them and give it a try! Next reel will be a 1943, 8mm, footage recorded in Tunisia by my grandfather, with a lot of German tanks and my grandfather's crash-landed Macchi c.202 Ciao!

Hi guys, I have some newbie questions about post-scanning enhancement of the footage. I'm using (using is an overstatement) DaVinci but I am no expert at all. I can do editing and basic enhancement (removing dust, scratches, etc.) but I have no method nor experience, so each project is...

Ohhh so beautiful! I'll print your sensor cover and lens cap tomorrow: they are very elegant :D Congrats for the presentation as well: I planned to do one but yours looks much better than my draft! I'll check the new film mask that you planned to create: it seems interesting too. Ciao, Federico

Mmmh, mine is grinding gravel as well, from time to time. I'll try and grease it a bit too.

Hi @0dan0 , do you mind to share the iris STL file? I've tried to search for it but could not find any, by searching online: Thank you! F.

HI @0dan0 thank you: I was thinking of the same iris reduction as well; thank you for the models! The new holder looks nice: is the cable long enough to allow the front slide? With the old model I struggled a bit because this is the part that required a very high cut in the main body of the...

Hi all, I've just mounted the newly arrived 12mm lens. I live in Hong Kong so I've tried to find the lens around here (China). After a couple of fails, I've finally got this one working perfectly through Alibaba: 2/3" F2.8 F5.6 F8.0 10mp FL 12mm 4k M12 Macro Board Lens...

Hi guys, I have one question as I'm not familiar with video encoding. Using Resolve, what export settings should I use? I would like to keep the file size/quality similar as it is after capture (I believe with the new firmware the quality is good enough). Everything I've tried (not much, I...

Hi @KODIAK , I'm curious to know if you've managed to fix the problem with the pin? Rather than the final position of the stepper motor, it seems that the round, eccentric component in your second picture is mounted 90degrees to the left (or right). If we consider the full rotation that brings...

Hi Mac, I confirm my s/n to be a model B, for your ref. Ciao!

Thank you Mac, I've actually already hacked my scanner with your first-ish firmware two years ago. Fact is that at the time we were not talking about A, B or C, so now I find myself in possession of one of Kodak's original firmware (so I can revert to a safe standard) plus one of your high...

Hi guys, I'm amazed by the new advancements you've been developing in these past few months. I've installed one of the first Mac84 mods a couple of years ago and it seemed already a whole new world: it opened the gates to a bunch of new hacks, upgrades, fixes. Now, besides the compliments, I'm...

Yeah! first of all a giant THANK YOU to @LordMiG for having been much clever than me and a second one for having shared the new (perfectly working) firmware! I've flashed 2 modified versions (one with the high bitrate standard resolution and one with high bitrate and 1080p resolution as...

Hi all again, I've finally been able to flash the v2/USA device and, as it happened to tinkerman, the screen has turned to negative. I believe there is some little difference between the v2 from Mac84 (including, of course, the back up original firmware he provided): maybe they've changed the...

Hi Sweat100, thank you for your message: indeed the power adapter has the US 2 flat pins. I believe it's a US model, then. About the flashing, I'll try again to format the SD Cards with some other devices (so far I've tried the internal format option on the Kodak and a quick format on my Windows...
