Kevin W., Pawcatuck, CT 7 April 2008
Thanks so much for a job well done! It made me very nervous to
send my movies via the postal service but to no avail, everything
was returned safely and in better quality than when it was sent. I
highly recommend your service and will spread the word to others.
Good quality and excellent customer service also. What was most
impressive was when I called to ask questions, I spoke to someone
immediately. Kudos to MyMovieTransfer.com/Debenham Media
Group. You've made me and my family very, very, very happy to
have these keepsake memories.
Greg Z., West Chester, PA 2 January 2008
THANK YOU!!!
What an amazing job with the film transfer. The quality was amazing and more than I could have
hoped for with the conversion of the legacy super8 film.
My family was very happy to watch the videos that havn't been watched in over 25 years. I am
trying to round up the other reels from my other family members to transer as well.
I fully recommend your services to anyone who might have any doubts.
I received my transfer back and have
reviewed it.
It is far and away the sharpest transfer
I have ever had!
Thanks, John D.

Judy K., Winthrop Harbor, IL 25 December 2007
I wanted to say THANK YOU. We gave my father his Christmas present yesterday- the movies you
transferred for us to DVD. He was so overcome, he started to cry. This is what Christmas is about-
bringing real joy to those you love. As a family, we all watched the videos together and had a great time
reminiscing about the places and activities in the videos.
Thank you so much for making this Christmas a special one.
Gerald and Lori W., Lincolnton, NC 2 January 2008
We were so thrilled to receive the DVD's so soon!!! You don't know how much it means to us to be
able to surprise the kids on Saturday. We are amazed with the quality and color correcting that was
done. We are very pleased with the overall package. We have already passed the word about your
company and it's quality workmanship to a close friend.
Thanks again to you for going the EXTRA MILE for us!! We appreciate it so much! May you and yours
have a very BLESSED CHRISTMAS and a wonderful New Year to come!!
Josh K., Ventura, CA 2 January 2008
Thanks for the great transfer. My client was very pleased. The quality was excellent and the
turnaround time was better than advertised.
This particular client brought me a window dub transfer of this footage that they had done
previously. They wanted a transfer without the visible TC. While they were a bit reluctant to go for
the extra expense of a rank transfer, I convinced them not to repeat their previous mistake of
going with a economy dub. They were not disappointed. We will certainly use you again in the
future.

Thessa M., Brooklyn, NY 5 January 2008
I want to thank you for the amazing job you guys did with the transfer of my friend's 8mm films. The
picture quality is professional-grade and the service outstanding: all my question were patiently
answered (something I'm not used to in Brooklyn) and the completion date was even moved ahead
during the holiday season. .
Bill D., Kettering, OH 2 January 2008
Rank Cintel is alive and well- along with the colorist who preformed the work. As a former film producer
of many years, I am very familiar with the Rank and delighted to have it available for transferring my
home movies. Although they (my home movies) are not up to the professional standards I required of
our commercial work, your service delivers more than I expected of a home movie transfer. You will
have thousands of feet of 16mm film coming your way.
Carleen C., Miami, FL 3 January 2008
Just wanted to thank you for a wonderful job on the movie reels. I was very nervous and skeptical,
especially with the two week turnaround to receive the movies before Christmas; but everything arrived
one day ahead of schedule and in great condition. I'm glad I chose your compnay to perserve my
memories. My family was very touched by the thoughful gift and even brought a tear to my father's eye.
Thanks again for the professionalism and walking me through all my questions and the DMG process.
John B., Middletown, PA 10 January 2008
I used the transferred images that you provided on the hard drive, selecting the ones that show family scenes, and make an
approximately half-hour long DVD. The process of using your transferred images to do this was easy. I even managed to figure out
how to pull frames to use as backdrops for chapter titles and to set up an attractive main menu and scene-selection menus, as well as
a "cast of characters" scroll at the beginning. It all came together beautifully and made a wonderful gift for my sister and her husband
for their three children, none of whom had seen these movies in nearly 40 years. I have received many positive comments about it.
Thank you , again, for providing exactly what I needed to pull this off. If I hear of anybody needing a service such as yours, I will
certainly point them in your direction.
Also, thanks for the answers to my questions, particularly the one about the color. This kind of after-the-sale responsiveness is what
sets apart a good business. I am very happy that I chose your company and will give it a good recommendation to a friend who has
asked me to let him know how it went because he is considering having some movies digitized.
Your website is what sold me on your company. I liked its thoroughness in covering almost every conceivable question. I called you
in advance with just one additional question, and I also appreciate that you answered the phone promptly and told me exactly what I
wanted to know. You are definately doing things right in my book! The refund for my overpayment was just one more thing that told
me that I made the right decision in trusting my movies, and my money, with you.
Scott S., Midland, MI 2 January 2008
Thanks to everyone at DMG for the fine transfer of my very old 8mm films- the quality was great. I'll be
back again for other transfers and I have spoken highly of your group. DMG's communication and
execution were terrific. Best wishes in 2008.
Alan S., Paeonian Springs, VA 14 January 2008
I wanted to let you know how impressed I was with the transfer of my super 8mm film to
DVD/MiniDV that was accomplished by Debenham Media Group. This transfer exceeded my
expectations in every way! Thank you very much.
I also wanted to let you know how impressed I am with your firm, in particular your staff. Initially, I
spoke with a gentleman named Gregg. Gregg was very professional and courteous. He answered
all my questions and he made me feel like I was your most important customer. He also gave me a
feeling that my films would be handled with the greatest of care and any apprehension I may have
had about sending these one-of-a-kind treaures to DMG for transfer was alleviated completely.
Additionally, he explained your process to me in detail and everything he said that would
happen-from emailing me when he received my films to notifying me when the transfer was
complete and providing tracking information to me when it was shipped back to me- happened.
I find it very refreshing and exciting when I discover a firm, like DMG, that is truely first class. It is
so rare these days.
Once again, thank you. I look forward to working with your firm again.
Jay W., Charlottesville, VA 16 January 2008
I just wanted to let you know how impressed I was with my transfer. The vintage footage (from the 1920s
no less!) could not have been done better! I have done lots of other footage myself and am tempted to
have you transfer those also. The communication and delivery were top notch also. Excellent job.
Riley T., Chicago, IL 17 January 2008
I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful job you did. I got the miniDV tape and I found the
footage quality top-of-the-line, and I will most definately consider your business for telecine service
first. Thanks again.
Jacqueline K.,Old Bridge, NJ 21 January 2008
Just like last time, the CD's are wonderful. I have recommended you to so many people. Your
company is honest, trustworthy, and so helpful. You gave us our memories back and my mother is
so very thankful as well. Wish there were more companies like My Movie Transfer in this world.
Thanks again.
Celia M., Northridge, CAA, A 23 January 2008
I was very happy with the DVD you made me. The color and copy was a real good quality. I received
it before Christmas and was able to play if for the fmaily. We all enjoyed it. It was especially nice to
see it with the family because, in May of 2007, we lost our mother to cancer, and she was in much of
the DVD. When I sent you that film, I didn't know how much of the film she was in. It had been over
25 years since the last time we played it on a projector. I received it, and put it on right away. It was
such a blessing to see her again, just as I had remembered her as a child.
I will be sending you more film in the future.
Pam T., Houston, TX 25 January 2008
I just received my DVD, and we were thrilled with the results!!! We have LOTS more to transfer and we
will certainly return. It's just such an expensive project that we will have to do it in bits and pieces. I look
forward to our next DVD!!
I also thank you for the efficiency with which the transfer was made. We received our DVD way ahead of
schedule. That was exciting!!
Jen B., Wilmer, MN 18 January 2008
Thank you so much. Your professional restoration of my families' memories is
awesome. For Christmas my mother and sister were in tears at seeing my deceased
father, childhood birthday parties, the local village parade, and our great uncles
competing on who had the largest waistline.
Thank you so much.
Martin M., Fort Worth, TX 24 January 2008
Received them and took them over to my parents' house to watch. They loved them and
they were impressed with the quality.
Thanks!
Yvette B., Winter Springs, FL 21 January 2008
I took a chance!
I sent my 8mm movies to you with my fingers crossed. I have known others who have had theirs
done locally and have been very disappointed; so I was very apprehensive to have them done at
all.
Since my ex-husband passed away last year, I thought it would help our family with the healing
process. When the package arrived I was very excited, yet nervous, to open it.
From the first picture the quality was more than I could have ever imagined or prayed for. I was
overwhelmed.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for perserving our family's history.
Mary H., New York, NY 24 January 2008
I received the DVD yesterday and just got to view it today. I had never seen any of the 8mm movies
which featured my parents' honeymoon, my older sister as a toddler, and family summer vacation in
the late 1950s. It was a bit bittersweet looking at the images as my parents and my brother are no
longer living. I am saving the DVD as a present for my sister's birthday next month so I think it will
be a wonderful surprise. Thanks very much. I am sure that it was a bit of a challenge as the films
were so old and not stored under the best of circumstances. I am going to recommend your
services to a friend of mine who also has some film of his family from the 1960s.
Thanks again.
Robert B., Nashville, TN 29 January 2008
Today I received the DVD of the video you transferred from a 16mm film I sent to you only a few
days ago. I am thrilled with the results you have produced and can't thank you enough. The film I
sent you was taken during a period of time from 1943 to about 1947 and looks spectacular. I'm 67
yers old and in some of the clips I was 2 years old. I hadn't seen this film in probably 40 years and
wasn't really sure what would still be viewable. I know that the film was very brittle and couldn't
be run through a projector, so I had little hope of ever viewing it again. I feel very fortunate that
I found your company on the Internet. I had looked many times, but never felt comfortable with
other sites I found. Thanks again for your professionalism and expert work. I will certainly
recommend your company every chance I get.
Doug T., Osceola, WI 30 January 2008
The transfers are great! The family is thrilled to have the old movies available with the ease of
playing a DVD. There were even a few in the bunch that we had forgotten we had!
The quality of the transfers is quite good, we are so happy with the job your staff did. I also like the
way they sealed it in air-tight shrink wrap so moisture does not get to the media.
Thank you again for your fine work!
L. Ward C., Nashville, TN 1 February 2008
I have waited about ten years for the right technology and company to transfer my now 32 year old
film to digital video. Your efforts have surpassed my expectations. I felt from your website that
your company did things with a personal touch and attention to detail. My irreplaceable movie of
days in an Air Force fighter squadron is now in a form which will guarentee its survival for many
more years. The color rendition and size of the frame are outstanding. Thank you to everyone for
outstanding work.
Bonnie J., Alvin, TX 6 February 2008
We received the MiniDV tapes Thursday, which gave my son 2 weeks to digitize, edit, and put music to before
my in-laws' 60th wedding anniversary party (plenty of time). I appriciate you getting them done so quickly and
the quality of the tape was great, knowing the poor quality of some of the film. Thank you so much for all the
work you did. My husband's parents were very pleased with the finished DVDs.
Carl G., Raleigh, NC 5 February 2008
You guys did a great job, again! That old 16mm film had not been viewed in more than 50 years
and you were able to transfer most of it and it looked GREAT! Can you imagine a bunch of 70+
year old guys hanging over a monitor in our studio seeing themselves play football when they
were teenagers? Very moving. Thanks again.
Matt S., Summit, NJ 3 February 2008
I finally have to email you and tell you how pleased I am, and have been, with the DVDs and tapes you
transferred from my 16mm film for me. I was a little dubious doing business with a website with which I was
unfamiliar. After talking to Gregg on the phone, I was sold and sent you my priceless honeymoon movies. They
turned out better than I could have hoped. The same is true of the recent larger reel I sent..and you returned it
especially early to meet a deadline I have. I am happy to tell you this. Your quality and service deserve it!
Thanks!
Nick M., New York, NY 2 February 2008
Got my S8-DVD transfer today. Thanks. You did as much as you could with that footage. I will probably send
more reels soon.
David B., Omaha, NE 13 February 2008
Well you exceeded our expectations. The movies turned out fantastic. This of course started another chain of
events that was beyond my control. You see I did not have a device to read the MiniDV tapes so I had to buy
an HD movie camera. Then, I needed software to edit the movies so it was back to the store for software. I
see years of enjoyment ahead and it was all because of the quality of your work. Thanks.
Petrit P., New York, NY 13 February 2008
Hi there. Just wanted to say everything is great, thank you!!! Will be sending you more film sometime in the
future.
Karen F., Volcano, HI 11 February 2008
Received my movie transfers yesterday and viewed them last night. Mahalo for your time and expertise in
transferring these films to a DVD. Compared the DVD with a film transfer that was put on a VHS video in 1992,
which my mother had paid $845.00 for. That's where the comparison and quality were very notable. The DVD
was sharper, cleaner, colors more vivid- even on a cloudy day, hues more true to nature. It appeared much
effort was put towards making the people as focused as possible, their skin colors great! All this and the
original films were considered in poor condition. BIG MAHALO to you all, keep up the good work, will highly
recommend your services to anyone needing them. Most of all, thanks for all the nostalgia and happiness
you return to people's lives bringing old memories back to life again for them.
Robert H., Armonk, NY 11 February 2008
I can never, NEVER thank you all enough for the quality of the product you sent me. I am totally amazed
by how magnificently the movies, shot between 57 and 30 years ago, turned out. My parents' wedding
movie looked as spectacular as the wedding itself 57 years ago. Please let me know how I can be of
assistance spreading the word on the quality and service you provide.
Bob C.., New Rochelle, NY 13 February 2008
Fantastic..Thanks.. You and your staff have been extremely efficient, courteous, and informative. It's
been a pleasure.
John B., West Lafayette, IN 10 February 2008
I initially had the films transferred by Brand X, one of your biggest competitors and I was not happy with the results. Problems
included: 1) The film was very dirty even though their website says they clean the film. 2) The film broke several times during the
transfer process and the operator didn't do anything for some time. This resulted in either a) the same image for some time or b) a
white image for some time that showed significant and constant variation in the color of the projection light. 3) The film skipped
badly in several places. 4) The film on one 7 inch reel was badly curved and the transfer from this curved film showed both the
black edge on the film and the white beyond the black edge.
The description of your transfer equipment led me to believe that the skipping would not occur as it appeared you were running
the film through a projector like film loop and there were several testimonials on your web site about MMT recovering film that
other transfer companies refused to touch with a ten foot pole. Here are my impressions: 1) The images are much cleaner, the film
was obviously cleaned. 2) the color was much better. Not a little better, much better. 3)The film speed seemed different than Brand
X's People seemed to be walking quickly in the Brand X transfer and more normally in yours. 4) The black and white footage had low
contrast.
I'm impressed with the colorist's color handiwork. I tried my darnest with every tool Pinnacle Studio Ultimate had on the first
transfer and couldn't make the color remotely as good as he did.
Kristen D., Nokomis, FL 24 December 2007
Words cannot express how pleased I am with my movie transfer. The quality, prompt service, and
care taken with these precious memories surpassed ALL MY EXPECTATIONS. I was impressed first
that I called with some questions before I sent them, that a gentleman answered the phone and
patiently spent time answering all my questions and concerns. Upon reciept of my 30 year old film, I
promptly received an email confirmation and reassurance that my order would be well taken care
of and delivered on time so that I could give copies to my family for Christmas. I look forward to
sending more films to be transferred and wouldn't trust anyone else with my memories. Kudos to
your excellent work and courteous staff.
Gregg P., North Brunswick, NJ 20 December 2007
My grandmother died last year at the age of 102. Her husband, my grandfather, died in 1969. I found these films in a shed
behind her house, barely protected from the elements for many years. One of the films was not even in a can. Prior to the
shed, they were probably in a basement or attic for several decades. I had no idea what was on the films. In fact, we (the
grandchildren) could not recall her or my grandfather having a movie camera.
I did not know, until viewing the discs last night, that they had used the camera to document their trip, by car, across the
country and back again, sometime in the early 1950's. The second half of the footage documents another trip they took
across the Atlantic on the Queen Mary, and their sudsequent tour of London (my grandmother's birth place), the English
countryside, and on to Paris.
I'll be copying these discs for all of my grandmother's surviving kin. It brings great joy to see them, albeit briefly, alive again.
My only wish is that I could've done this before my grandmother died so that she could've see her late husband again and
relived those two incrediable journeys that they took together.
I received the package yesterday and watched the DVDs last night. I can't express how pleased I am with the job you did-
extremely professional- from my initial consultation with you to the transfer itself, the pricing, the turnaround time, even right
down to the way the items were packaged and returned. I am so glad I found you on the web.
Christine K., Lynn, MA 20 December 2007
I got the film today. Thank you, it was a very enjoyable experience to see my grandmothers again.
Carla V., Craigville, IN 18 December 2007
One word sums it up. Impressive. I was impressed with your web site, that's what made me decide to use you. After that decision
was made, I was impressed with your customer service, very willing to explain and answer questions that I had. Impressed once
again with the emails stating you received my film and another one when you sent it back out. After viewing the final product, you
guessed it. Impressed. Thanks for the memories.
Kjell O., La Quinta, CA 14 December 2007
Just wanted to give you feedback for the work you guys did on my "African movie" converting
from 16mm to DVDs. I can only say that you did a first class job on a film that is 35 years old. If there
are any flaws it is caused by the guy behind the camera and not by your lab. Also the sound track
came out a lot better than what I had expected. But overall, the film looks great on my 120" movie
screen and the Infocus projector converting to 1080i.
I will send you more film, but that will take a few weeks since I need to edit them better.
Thanks and best regards.
Nancy G., Annapolis, MD 12 December 2007
Thank you for the great job you did with my films! It was quite a shock to see myself at that tender age and looking very green (young
and inexperienced) on the first bunch of outtakes. The second one, the take off on "Diamonds are a girl's best friend," had me doing
a better job although the voice was awful- I was lip synching I hasten to add. :) However, you all did a wonderful job- the DVD is
great and brother Fred has decided to make copies for the family. Poor them!
Pam S., Wimberley, TX 10 December 2007
Happily, I'm able to report that I loved the transfer and have now used it to make a DVD for my sisters for
their Christmas present! I'm also about to print out your web order form and send the rest of my dad's old
reels in order to have them transferred as well.
Ya'll do a great job and I'm very pleased. Rest assured, I've told others about your professionalism,
excellent customer service, and outstanding recovery of old film, so the word is being spread here in Texas!
Jonathan C., West Hollywood, CA 10 December 2007
I've viewed the transfer and this is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! My father who is currently 78 years old, was the camera man for
all 65 reels of film that you transferred. I'm going to surprise him with this for Christmas this year. There was one 8mm reel that
he shot in Korea during the Korean wan- it came out perfect. I didn't even know that it existed. About half this project was
shot during my childhood!! This came out much better than I could have ever anticipated. The movies were shot from the 50s
through 1980. Incredible... Thanks thanks thanks!!!
Randall M., West Palm Beach, FL 10 December 2007
We received the transferred films and would like to thank you for restoring those films. We were happy to see that both the 16
and 8mm films were restorable. I am certain the 8's were a challenge, but even they came out well.
We really do appriciate your talents and ability to restore these family movies. They bring back many memories. Thank you.
Liesl M., Grove City, OH 5 December 2007
I received the tapes and DVDs yesterday and had a chance to watch most of them. We had about 6 hours of DVDs to view!
Since I didn't have a reference sample of what the films looked like before you restored them, I am not quite sure just had
badly the film had degrated. However, the color and the films (even the double exposed roll) looked very true to life. I am
extremely happy and satisfied with the results. Watching my parents see those old movies again was truely the highlight of
my year. We were all amazed at how true the colors were and how well they were transferred to DVD. They are truely a
treasure and an heirloom we can enjoy anytime now!
I am very thankful to you and your staff for all of the help and information, advice, and their expertise. Your staff is very
willing to talk about the process and explain everything and answer all questions about the film transfer process as well as
other photographic topics. In short, I must say that everyone that I spoke with at mymovietransfer.com provided me with
great customer service. They are patient, as I am sure that they explain the movie transfer process many times each day, but
it sounds like they enjoy what they do, and explaining it to people, which makes all the difference.
In short, your staff treated me extremely well, and made me feel that my films were just as important as their own family's. You
have a great group of people answering questions and dealing with your customers. You should be very proud.
Happy holidays to you and your staff. Ours will be a little sweeter now, as we can reminisce about the Christmas' of the past,
and remember those no longer with us. They can be in our hearts and minds as we open presents this year, as well as in our
living room, even though it will be on a TV screen.
I cannot express our gratitude in words.
Peter B., Mes Calero, NM 26 November 2007
The movie transfer arrived today, and I just took a look at the DVD. It is beautiful! I can't tell you
what a thrill it is for us to be able to view this historic piece of footage. It will be fun showing it
to interested people, then placing it in the archives to preserve this record in a usable format.
Many thanks!
John W. Retired Documentary Filmmaker , Los Angeles, CA 25 November 2007
I was shocked when- after decades of closet storage- my once-lush 1970s color documentary now looked like it had been
shot on Mars by Jules Verne!
Thank you for cheerfully restoring over 90% of the faded color and at no extra charge. You gave me my old film back!
Lloyd F., Whiting, NJ 21 November 2007
I am finally getting a hang of editing these films. I am very happy with the results. A cousin sent me film transfers the old
fashion way on VHS. You can really see the difference in quality. I asked all my cousins to send me their films and I will gather
them together to have them done. Many of them were taken with most peoples' heads cut off. If the projector, screen, and
camera used cut off a little bit more, it makes it worse. Sometimes, just that small amount can make the difference in
recognizing someone.
Thanks again for a job well done.
Joanne Y., Gilfport, MS 21 November 2007
I received my transferred movies and have just finished watching them. I am REALLY
pleased with the way they turned out!! When I next go back home in '08, I will pick up
some more to send to you for transfer. Thanks again- these are memories that are now
more easily accessible for me to treasure.
Jim W., Portage, MI 20 November 2007
I have had several sets of films converted by you and all have been uniformly good-
both the 16mm and the Super 8mm. I have previously tried several different companies,
but yours is the best work I have found.
Jill K., Kewanee, IL 20 November 2007
Thank you very much. Received your package today and have already watched both DVDs. Thank
you so much for bringing back a part of our childhood. I think the rest of the family will love it
also. It was nice doing business with you and I will certainly pass the word along.
John B., Wearl, NH 20 November 2007
I received the package. The DVD is terrific. I would be happy to recommend your service to my
friends too.
Ken S., Frederick, MD 19 November 2007
The movies look great. Fantasic work. We can even cature single images and make decent prints.
We have an iMac and it has a very nice iMovie program.
We are going to give them to my siblings as Christmas presents and after the holidays send you
some more to do.
Marie S., Media, PA 15 November 2007
Thanks so much for the transfers. I watched films today from my childhood. It was an
unbelieveable journey back.
The quality was amazing considering some of the footage was from 1951! I can't wait to surprise
my family with the memories.
Thank you for being so reassuring to me when I was fearful of letting these treasured films out of
my hands. You made it so very easy. I felt I was in good hands the moment I spoke with you and
Gregg.
You sent my original films and new DVDs and tapes back in perfect condition within two weeks of
receiving my order. I would certainly recommend you to anyone who is hesitating to make
transfers from film.
John C., Ocala, FL 9 November 2007
Got it today. Your work was awesome. The movie I sent was at least 70 years old, and it looked
great. I'm giving the DVD to my mother for her birthday next week, and she will be able to see
movies of her mother who died when my mother was 16 (1947). I'm sending 4 more movies
tomorrow.
Gerald S., Omaha, NE 11 March 2008
I have watched 3 out of 4 videos that have been transferred. They are very good, much better than watching them on a movie screen,
no flicker. I hope to add music and some voice to explain what one is seeing. I will send more movies for you to convert soon. THANKS
for the memories.
A happy customer.
Richard S., Keaau, HI 10 March 2007
I took over a year of research to have you finally do my video transfer, and I've viewed the uncompressed result over and over
critically during the past ten weeks that I have had it.
I originally had 4 online transfer services digitize the same 50 foot roll of sample film for comparison. Three did an awful job,
and the other was merely a bit better, but I was in reality disappointed in all four, thinking that my 16mm original must be the
problem. It wasn't. I chose (competitor name) to do a previous transfer that was very disappointing, before I discovered you
and your team at mymovietransfer.com.
(Competitor name) made arbitrary and destructive cropping decisions (they cut people's heads off!), crazy color correction
decisions, and worst of all, they believed shadow detail was far more important than highlight detail, so all the highlights are
totally blown out. This film was shot on a sunny day in Hawaii, and everyone's skin looks completely without detail.
Mymovietransfer.com's wonderful transfer isn't even in the same class as the four others. Your colors are realistic and
constant, there is amazing detail in the highlights I didn't even know existed, the viewing experience is much less jumpy, and
cropping was very jusicious (you tried to crop out the collected dirt at the top of the frame.) But best of all, the clarity
compared to all the others was like night and day.
I was able to grab frames clear enough and clean enough for inclusion in my Driving & Discovering Hawaii: Oahu Guidebook
(now in its ninth printing.) To be able to reproduce 4 inch by 3 inch stills at 300dpi that looks like they were shot with a 35mm
rangefinder--quite impressive. My father shot this film on VJ Day in Honolulu in 1945, and historically it is one-of-a-kind
because it's in color. It is quite a coup for me now to be able to print a feature in my book documenting this momentous day in
Hawaii's, and America's history.
I will also be putting together a documentary film. If any of your customers have color movie film from the WWII era depicting
everyday life at home, or footage from the military, I would love it if you could ask them if I could contact them.
I will be doing more projects that will require your deft handiwork. I appriciate what you have done for me, and I couldn't
recommend mymovietransfer any more enthusiastically. It's rare these days to get great results AND attentive customer
service.

I received my package today and played the DVD. It was shorter than I remembered, but you folks did
a very good job...the film was taken back in 1970.
I only wish that I had more. I'll let some of my friends know about your service, so you may hear from
some of my squadronmates.
Kim H., Scottsdale, AZ 6 March 2008
First, let me say that if I had enough of a profit margin to built into my film transfers, you'd have every scrap of film I receive
from this moment forward! You did an absolutely stellar job with this film project! You should be so incredibly proud of your
product! I knew you guys were good, but I never dreamed just how good you could be! Thank you!
I had the time of my life editing the film and putting together the DVDs. Usually, I have to work to get a good still photograph
from my film projects (that have been transferred by another movie transfer facility - who will remain nameless and is
shameless!). This time, I had so many great still photographs, I couldn't decide which ones to use!
The colors and clarity of the video were stunning! The levels and saturation were perfect!
All I can do is grin from ear to ear because I know my customer will be floored by the fabulous video!
My thanks to everyone who worked on this project.
Allan & Joyce L., Reisterstown, MD 5 March 2008
Thank you very much for a job well done! Our old 8mm movies were difficult to watch on the old
projector, and who knows how much longer the old films and projector would last. Your transfer to
DVD has made them as clear and colorful as we could have wished, and far more convenient to watch.
Jane T., Charlotte, NC 29 February 2008
I got the DVDs yesterday and have enjoyed watching the ancient family movies. I think you guys did
a great job. I looked at the web for a company to do this, and you guys seemed to be the most
professional.
Gary E., Hanford, CA 26 February 2008
Received our movies and we are very happy. Our priceless films made it due to your good hands and care for a family's memories.
Susan M., Westchester, NY 25 February 2008
What an extraordinary service you provide! Having lost my beloved father when I was a child, 40 years later he is here
again laughing in the house in which we all lived, when everyone we loved was alive and well. It is sheer joy of seeing my
cherished grandparents and my sister, all now gone, as well as our childhood playmates. Your service was 100%
professional, speedy, and the quality of the end product exceeded even my fondest hopes. I cannot thank you enough
for your excellent work in preserving memories I can enjoy myself, and pass along to future generations.
Chris P., Philadelphia, PA 24 February 2008
My transfer has been received and it looks good- thank you. I will use your company again if I come
across more film to transfer.
Thand you for your prompt and professional service.
Dwayne G., Willington, CT 18 February 2008
I wanted to let you know that you did an excellent job transferring the 8mm films I sent you. I have to say I had high
expectations to begin with based on the method of transfer described on your website, as well as the positive
testimonials I read. However, I would say you still managed to exceed those expectations. Just an awesome job. The
film taken outdoors looks like it could have been taken yesterday, but they're over 40 years old! My mom hasn't seen
them yet, but I know they will make her cry when she does. She actually cries pretty easily. My family has some even
older film that, once I find it, will be coming your way,
Bill B., Rochester, NY 15 March 2008
MyMovieTransfer.com has now processed for me 3+ hours of 16mm film dating from
1938 to 1965 and 5+ hours of super 8mm film dating from 1967 to 1986. I want you to know
how pleased I am wth the service and quality.
Before giving MyMovieTransfer.com my business, I researched companies and transfer
methodology throughout the US. Through conversations with numerous people in the
transfer business, including yourself, I concluded that the Rank Cintel transfer process
was by far the best way to proceed. Of the few companies that have access to this
equipment, MyMovieTransfer had the most favorable pricing, and, also, inspired a high
level of confidence that considerable care would be exercised in cleaning and handling
my film. Even though the reasons above were sufficient for me to choose
MyMovieTransfer, I must add that getting to visit your studio during a trip through
Pittsburgh was a moment of conformation. Your studio, filled with 5 Rank Cintel
machines, 4 technicians each working on a seperate machine focused on doing
tranfers, a person checking transfers, a person working on receiving and shipping, and
others all was very impressive and very professional.
I have already recommended MyMovieTransfer to a person that, in spite having his films
done once already, sent them to you. We have compared your work with that of the
other company. One can tell even with a casual glance, that MyMovie Transfer digital
copies are superior. I will continue to recommend MyMovieTransfer to anyone willing to
listen. The quality of my digital movies is simply outstanding, significantly better than the
image projected from film. Thanks for creating such a great service.











































Chas L., Fenton, MI 22 March 2008
Got the films. You do good work. Will
send more in time. You have lots of
patience. Some boring, but brings back
lots of memories.
Richie B. 20 March 2008
Want to let you know how great this turned out.
Thanks for an excellent job. I had many 8mm reels
transferred to VHS about 15 years ago. Your work is
so much better I am thinking about having you do it
all over again to DVD.
Chuck D. 24 March 2008
Thanks so much for your outstanding work. I
received my home movies on DVD and hard drive
from you a few days ago. After reviewing them, I was
amazed at the quality of the transfer. It is clear you
take great care at ensuring the old 8mm movies are
carefully handled and properly transferred to digital
media. The DVDs brought old family memories to life
that I thought were gone forever. Thanks and great
job!
John R. 25 March 2008
I received the DVD of my 16mm family films today. You and your team
did an excellent job of restoring and transferring this family keepsake.
This was a project that I thought of as a gift for my mother's 80th
birthday celebration. I plan to run the DVD, along with a DVD of still
pictures, during the party for the enjoyment of her guest.
Thank you for doing the job right, and returning the film ahead of
schedule.
Fletch L. 31 March 2008
Thanks for a great job! I am very pleased with the
quality you acheieved in transferring the film of my
mother's wedding that was 70 years old. I look
forward to sharing it with my family.
Dr. M.C. 28 March 2008
I just came back to Vienna from Florida where you sent my parcel.
Today I viewed the transfer - and I do not know how to thank you for
the digital film transfer. Your company has done a high quality job!
Many thanks for it! I am also very obliged to you for finishing the
transfer and sending it to my Tallahassee address ahead of
schedule. As I mentioned to you in one of my e-mails, I have many
more 8mm films waiting for transfer. Next year I plan again to visit
my children in Georgia and in Florida where I will send you more
films for the transfer.
Laurence S. 31 March 2008
They look old and absolutely
wonderful. I think my mother playing
with us in the yard, wearing a navy
blue sailor's dress or something with
matching navy blue elbow length
gloves, is the clincher. I will tell
everyone about your service.
Joan C., Mansfield Center, CT 31 March 2008
The entire family is thrilled at the quality of the work you did in
transferring the old reels onto DVD. We hadn't seen those pictures in
over 40 years and now many of the people in them have passed on. My
96-year old mother was especially happy. She was describing them to my
elderly uncle who now wants a copy for himself. Thank you for your
advice and for your fine work!
Carl P., Ash Flat, AR 2 April 2008
Just a note to tell how pleased we are with the
results of the film transfer. The DVDs are nicely
done. The little extras that went along with the
actual transfer tells us that the quality of your
work goes far beyond the transfer itself. The
careful packaging of the return product, the
continuous stream of emails advising us of the
progress of the work and the followup request to
FedEx to insure the completed work arrived as
scheduled reflects the commitment you have
toward customer satisfaction.
Woody R., Miami, FL 1 April 2008
I've got to tell you I was amazed at the quality. Those films were all made in
1970-1971 and I never dreamed you could restore them to that condition. Can't
thank you enough for the memories they've brought back. And as if that wasn't
enough, I was totally blown away to find the $10 overpayment refund check you
threw in because I'd overestimated the length of the film. I couldn't believe
there was anyone in business today who still did things like that. It was a real
pleasure to do business with you, and I'm forwarding this to all of my friends to
let them know about you.
Charles P., Burlington, CT 4 April 2008
Wow! I was greatly impressed with the quality of the output. I know these 8mm films date back to the 1960s (40 + years ago),
and I was expecting the quality to be so-so. But I was extremely impressed with the quality and workmanship you were able
to provide.
I have been doing digital movies for quite some time, and in fact, I had a set of 8mm films done several years ago by
another vendor and these 8mm films were as old as what I sent to you but the quality of output from this other vendor was
not so impressive and I know he used a Telecine process.
In any case, I have no reservations of recommending you to other people. The quality was worth the price for these
priceless family films. I know the rest of my family will be VERY impressed and excited to see themselves 40 years younger.

Tse C., Bellevue, WA 10 April 2008
I recently received your transferred DV tape from my 16mm film.
It is excellent and I appreciate your excellent work. Fifteen
years ago a cine lab converted a lot of my 16mm films to SVHS
tape. Your digital processing seems to give more detail. I am
sending you two more rolls of 16mm films to be transferred this
week. Thanks again.
Lamar F. Blairsville, GA 11 April 2008
My wife and I just finished 4 great hours of home movies! Thanks for the
great work. We hadn't seen most of the 8mm in 30 or more years and had no
way of watching them. I don't know if you can still buy 8mm projectors.
We just dropped the DVDs in the player and sat back and watched our
babies (now 39 and 38) come home from the hospital, take their first steps,
eat their first solid food and open presents and open presents and open
presents (boy, we took a lot of movies opening presents). Thanks again for
the great job.


Barbara B., State College, PA 12 April 2008

I am very happy with the Super 8 and 16mm film to digital video
transfers your company did for me. The color and contrast ratios
look excellent, as well as the maintaining of focus of all the
images.
It was a large, complicated order and it was done in good order
and on the schedule that you promised. I use this home movie
footage in my larger creative documentary work here at Penn
State where I teach film/video production and I won't hesitate to
recommend your company to my students and colleauges.
I even have an older (and more precious) archive of Regular
8mm family films (dating back to 1945) that I will be sending to
you for transfer in the future.
Thanks for your high quality work and service.
Steve K., Johnstown, PA 13 April 2008
I was really surprised at how well the film
transferred - it's a bunch of clips that
someone took at my parents' wedding
reception, and it's great to have it in DVD
format!
