Your family films on 8mm and Super 8 reels are irreplaceable — and film does not wait. At Studio HanaBi we digitize 8mm and Super 8 film using frame-by-frame scanning: every single frame is captured individually on a dedicated film scanner, producing a stable, flicker-free digital file at archival quality.
What the service includes
- Inspection of each reel and gentle cleaning of dust and debris.
- Frame-by-frame scanning — no projector, no lost frames, no flicker.
- Digital image stabilization and color correction.
- Delivery as high-quality digital files, ready for viewing, editing and cloud backup.
- Your original reels are returned unharmed.
Why Studio HanaBi
Our film scanning is used by the National Library of Israel, cinematheques, archives and documentary filmmakers who need true archival results. We are among the very few labs in Israel working at this level — the same care goes into every family reel.
Not sure what is on your reels, or how long they run? See our Hebrew guides or simply bring the reels in — we will identify the format, length and condition for you. We also handle 16mm and rare 9.5mm Pathé film, and offer restoration and color correction for faded footage.
