Hi Julian and thanks for the input! I didn't have the time to check. I borrowed a NTSC camera and did the project. What a pain! Someone on the list asked me some time ago how long conversion took with Canopos Procoder. I timed it this time. It was 98% realtime.
BTW: someone mentioned that theres a splendid shop selling 8mm equipment in London.
