It made a huge difference to what I could pull from the cine film from the original wolverine, worth every penny. It's very frustrating to be at 1fps When I get my pension, I hope I will have a bit of spare cash to have the Ark Royal cine scanned at 2k Do stay tuned...
I like to keep an eye it at least, but it does pretty much look after itself. A scan can be stopped and started as often as needed without problem so if I had to go out, and can stop and start. If the film is an unknown then exposure is the most likely thing to keep an eye on.
@capspread I prevent jitter by never using the take up, I let the film drop in to a clean plastic tub. I disconnected the take up motor from the board so it doesn't even run. Dropping the film in to a bin is fine, I do with with 400ft with no problem and then use a hand wound movie viewer to gently rewind from the bin. You can see how I do it if you skip to around 4'00 in this video ruclips.net/video/RHmF6V0lFJc/видео.html

Thank you so much for this video! Now I need to find out if something similar can be done for my Reflecta Super 8 + Scanner.

Great job, what it the specific model of the lens you mounted on the sensor board?

How is the new Kodak Reelz with 8mp sensor?
I have no idea, I have never seen one but I have heard of it and what I did read was not that favorable
