This is rad.

Take one Movie Stuff Workprinter XP. Now add a Red One. You now have an ultra-high-def Super 8 telecine system.

What does that mean for you non camera geeks? It means it’s a way of transferring analog Super 8 films into perfect, high-rez digital archives.

Why anyone would need that kind of quality from Super 8 remains to be seen, but this is a very awesome proof of concept.

Hit the jump to see our friend Mike and his Red in action. Why? Just because camera nerds love those photos.
