By using an online service, converting 8mm film to DVD couldn’t be simpler. This system is designed so that those with precious reels of film from decades ago can get them uploaded onto DVD at an exceptionally high quality with minimal risk to the safety of the film. The company even makes a backup of the uploaded file before sending the package back, so they are prepared with a spare copy should the worst case scenario happen and the mail system loses the originals.

Converting 8mm film to DVD in under two weeks

What is more likely to happen however, is that the package will arrive safe and sound on the customer’s doorstep within two weeks of sending everything off to be converted. It is estimated that this takes around 6 working days from the date of dispatch, but it can take a little longer during holiday periods or in areas that have known postage issues. Regardless of this, the process of converting 8mm film to DVD is very fast.
