Words cannot describe how incredible Memorable is!!! I am so happy I went with Memorable to restore and digitize my 3,000 feet of 8mm footage from the 1950s to 1970s (and also 2 Betamax tapes). Before deciding on Memorable, I spent about a month doing detailed research of all the companies out there who offered restoration of 8mm footage (I was also looking at a few wetgate companies, but in the end I didn't think they were as good as what Memorable had to offer). I choose Memorable in the end for a number of reasons - first off, the quality of their sample footage looked to be among the best. Secondly, Eugene (the founder of Memorable) was so wonderful to work with - I e-mailed him multiple questions every day for several weeks, asking all kinds of questions about the process (I mean really detailed questions!), and he always responded very quickly with detailed answers. He literally answered every single one of my questions (and I must have asked 20 questions!). He was so kind and informative. So A+ for customer service!Beyond that, I was apprehensive in general about sending all of our footage in the mail (was worried about the mailing service losing it). Eugene said that they have never lost any footage in all the years they've been doing this. I think a lot of that is because they pay for you to send them your footage in 2-Day shipping (either UPS or FedEx). Sending it rushed shipping like this helps to prevent it from getting lost in the mail (there's also detailed tracking information on your package, I was checking the tracking information on it like every 5 minutes, haha - it constantly updated which was nice).But in any case, it took less than a month to get all of our videos back (the originals we sent as well as the hard drive, which contained both ProRes and mp4 files, and also a Blu-Ray they made). And WOW.... I can NOT describe how SHOCKED we were at how AMAZING the 8mm footage looked!!!!!!!!! It was unreal!!!!!!!!! My Grandfather had got them transferred to VHS in the 1980s, but that transfer looked like absolute garbage compared to Memorable's transfer! Their HD sprocketless scanner individually scanned each and every frame of film, and then I believe they put each scan in to the computer to generate a digital video file (this eliminates the problem of having the projector slow down and speed up, so you get a constant, stable frame rate). Everything is SO clear, it actually looks WAY better than our VHS home movies from the 80s and 90s, which is crazy! It's crystal clear, it's bright (but not at all too bright), the brightness/contrast ratio is just perfect. Just, WOW! Words seriously cannot describe how wonderful this footage works.Memorable informed me every step of the way too - they called me when they were finished with my footage to let me know the package was coming. A few days after I received it, they e-mailed me to ask how I liked the footage.In short - if you're looking to get your 8mm footage transferred, GO WITH MEMROABLE! You will NOT regret it!!!!!!!
