I think this is fine for general menu navigation, but I don't like it for doing frame adjustments. The Wolverine has a small LCD screen built-in.
It will really bog down with larger reels. I recommend rewinding your reels by hand. Bypassing a spindle on the take-up side might help with this.
A similar problem can happen on the take up side as a large reel fills up, it sometimes gets too heavy and the take-up reel may cease its duties and you get a mess on the other end. If left unattended, you may come back to quite a mess. The source reel on the wolverine has very little friction and spins quite freely, too freely sometimes. Another problem I've experienced with larger reels is the unraveling reels. Dust and dirt will accumulate more with longer reels too. As you work with larger reels, there's greater chance of something going wrong and wasting a lot more time. A 3" reel takes about 30min to process, a 5" takes about 2hours. And then a good blasting of compressed air on the Wolverine after each pass.Īlthough the pro model can accommodate up to 9" reels, I don't recommend using anything larger than 5". I recommend inspecting, cleaning and repairing the film reels before scanning. So I do a 4:3 size zoom and a zoomed out pass with sprocket holes that can be cropped later into a 16:9 framing. I may do 2 passes on some reels because a greater area of film was exposed. It has done a fairly decent job when things are working smoothly. It offered some improvements over the original model such as increased resolution from 720p to 1080p, larger reel accommodation, and 20fps capture rather than 30fps.
I decided to give the Wolverine Moviemaker-Pro a try. I have a lot of family home movies on 8mm & Super8.
