Digitizing films?

[tim]

Not sure if this is the right group for this or not.....

But after the death of our parents my sister has collected
a box of Super 8 cine films of our childhood (plus suitable
projector!).

She wants to digitise these and put them onto CD(s)
(god knows why!).

Does anyone know if this is possible. I know that it
used to be possible to get them converted to Video
but that technology has passed us by.

TIA

It is probably not the right group, but what you will need is a setup which
comprises a first surface mirror, a rear projection screen, a video camera
and means to shield ambient light (like black cloth or carton). A suitable
device is offered by Hama:
