so uh
we rescued a set of 4K movie film scanners

does anyone need a set of 4K movie film scanners

if you have a need for a cinema film scanner (or can give it a good home!), and can arrange to have it transported from the Seattle area, message me on fedi or e-mail me at hello@alyx.sh

yes they're Spirit 2Ks
i believe both of them have the 4K upgrade things

we also got this prism cover off of an old ITK yfront machine, which was already missing nearly all of its internals

it's not useful but it certainly looks cool

with cinema film scanners, you can:

digitize some archival footage!
admire them!
fill your jellyfin library with filmrips!
