EXCELLENT Based on 449 reviews Posted on Cloe ClareTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just used supaphoto and it’s been a great quick and simple experience! Our films and video tapes were collected promptly and the team got back to us straight away when they received. We got a broken down price of what everything would cost and explained the stages of the process for us. Great price for what we sent away and very prompt on doing the job and sending stuff back. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone looking for this service.Posted on Sue BlightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service and very efficient too! The quality of the films is superb and have not lost any of the quality from the original. Thanks for preserving our memories! Just used Supaphoto again and the service was so good. They really understand the importance of my 'legacy' videos and treat them very carefully. They are great at identifying the most cost effective way to deliver your product and are so quick in their responses. The output? - a beautiful memory box on a stick!Posted on Suzanne CorcoranTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emile & his team definitely deserve 5stars so helpful & a speedy Gonzales turn around they went above & beyond getting my old camcorder tapes digitalised in time for my husbands 70th surprise thanks so much 🙏Posted on Pippa HammondTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great quality service. Transformed two VHS tapes (including one affected by mould) to high quality digital files. Would highly recommend.Posted on Mark WitcombTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gisela and her team took on the daunting challenge of developing a 55-yrs old cine film I’d come across (Kodak 8mm 'Kodachrome II Daylight film') which my grandfather seems to have forgotten to send off for processing back in about 1970. Supaphoto were quick to respond and helpful, explaining the process clearly including their policy of an up-front payment of £120 regardless of successfully processing the film or not. Given the work required that seems fair enough. Although the process took several months (apparently, they had to wait on some chemicals) Supaphoto kept me updated and were always quick to respond to my emails. Eventually they informed me that after several attempts they had been able to recover some images, in spite of the film being in very poor condition. It felt very strange seeing the footage for the first time after so long; like ghosts from the past! Thanks so much Supaphoto for not giving up, dealing with the issues and getting a positive result, I very grateful! MarkPosted on E HousdenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fast & efficient. Did a superb job on digitisation of 50 years old slides to be used for our Golden Wedding celebrations. We are very pleased with the result! 🥰Posted on sue durrantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Supaphoto copied some camcorder films onto a USB stick for me. They were very quick and professional and the quality is excellent.Posted on Laurence O'ConnorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Truly excellent service.

The Best Way to Convert Your Cine Films
Whether it’s a seaside holiday, a wedding day, or children playing in the garden many years ago, your 8mm cine film reels hold precious memories worth preserving.
8mm cine film has captured family life for generations, but time can take its toll. As the years pass, film can begin to fade, dry out, shrink, or become brittle, especially if it has spent a long time in storage.
One of the best ways to protect those memories is to convert 8mm cine film to DVD. Using specialist frame-by-frame scanning technology, our experienced technicians carefully capture each reel in high resolution, helping to preserve the detail, movement, and character of the original footage.
We handle 8mm cine film with great care, using professional equipment to achieve the highest possible standard of transfer and presentation.
Once digitised, your 8mm cine film can be returned as digital video files, on USB, or on DVD in a smart presentation case. You can also choose our cloud download service for quick and easy access to your completed videos.
Many 8mm cine films are silent, but if your reels include a soundtrack, we take care to preserve that too during the transfer process. Whether you want 8mm cine film transferred to DVD, USB, or digital files, we make sure your footage is handled properly from start to finish.
We’ve worked with many different film brands over the years, and we understand that each reel can vary in colour, contrast, and condition. That’s why we make careful adjustments during scanning to achieve the most natural and pleasing result possible.
With nearly twenty years of experience, Supaphoto has helped thousands of families convert 8mm cine film to DVD and preserve their home movies for future generations. Our technicians treat every reel with the care it deserves, carrying out repairs where possible and making thoughtful corrections to improve stability and presentation.
If your 8mm cine reels show signs of mould or damage, don’t worry — we also offer specialist restoration processes to help recover and protect them.
If your 8mm films are still stored away in tins, boxes, or cupboards, now is the perfect time to preserve them before further deterioration sets in.
We’d love to help you bring those memories back to life.
There’s something truly special about sitting down together and watching your old 8mm cine films again — seeing familiar faces, forgotten places, and cherished family moments replayed on screen.
8mm cine film reels often hold some of life’s most meaningful memories, from birthdays and holidays to weddings, school days, and everyday scenes captured years ago.

However, this can be time-consuming, costly, and technically demanding. For the highest quality and a stress-free experience, it’s best to use a professional digitisation service like Supaphoto. We handle the entire process for you, ensuring that your 8mm films are preserved in stunning clarity on a playable DVD.
A: Yes, we can transfer your 8mm films directly to DVD.
At Supaphoto, we use high-resolution frame-by-frame scanning technology to digitise every frame of your 8mm cine film.

A: It’s technically possible to convert 8mm film to DVD yourself, but the process is long and challenging.
You would need a working film projector or transfer device to play the reels, a digital camera or camcorder to record the projected image, and a computer with video editing and DVD authoring software. Once captured, you’d need to correct colours, adjust brightness, and remove flicker before finally burning the video to a disc. This method takes hours of manual effort and often delivers poor results. With Supaphoto, we take care of every step using professional equipment, advanced post-processing, and decades of experience, ensuring your 8mm film to DVD transfer is completed quickly and with the best possible quality.

A: There are many film transfer services in the UK, but few match the expertise and equipment of Supaphoto.
Most small providers rely on basic playback devices that cannot achieve the same precision and colour fidelity as our professional frame-by-frame scanners. At Supaphoto, we adjust brightness, correct colours, stabilise footage, and remove unwanted flicker during the 8mm film to DVD conversion process. The result is a smooth, vibrant video that looks better than ever before. If you’re looking for a reliable and cost-effective film digitisation service, Supaphoto is the perfect choice.
