Why converting 16mm film to digital is important

Although long absent from the mass market, EachMoment converts thousands of hours of 16mm film to digital and DVD each year. Our customers always tell us how comforting it is to free up space and feel assured their footage is safe for many more years. Cine film is also highly flammable, and those with large collections often feel more secure after converting to digital.

Over time, 16mm film can degrade due to heat, moisture, and sunlight. As film ages, it may become brittle or develop a vinegar smell. By converting 16mm film to digital, you can safeguard your memories before deterioration becomes irreversible.

Transferring 16mm film to digital and DVD allows you to preserve space, protect your memories, and relive them on digital devices such as computers, tablets, and smartphones.

A Brief History of 16mm Film

Cine film refers to motion picture film formats used before consumer-grade videocassettes and digital formats. Unlike its 8mm successor, 16mm film was used in professional and educational settings. It became popular during WWII due to its lightweight format, capturing up to an hour of footage. However, the rise of more affordable formats like Betamax and VHS led to its decline.

EachMoment has converted many hours of documentary footage captured on 16mm film for museums across the UK, preserving valuable historical content.
