Transferring OLD MOVIE FILM To Digital Format.

[ameerat42]

I found some old Super 8 (not the movie) film rolls (again) the other day while cleaning/reorganising.
(I knew I had them and there are more of them.)

Of course, I started to think about digitising the footage - not just recording it onto video (so 1980s)
Pretty soon I realised it could become bigger than BEN HUR (the movie)!

I have a good (old) Eumig Super/Standard 8 projector... ...and... nothing much else, though I can get hold of a Video 8 camera.
This latter has USB and Firewire out (as well as the unmentionable AV out).

OK, what ideas are out there? All are welcome, as I'm trying for the best reproduction I can, and there's a lot to cover.

PS: Oh, silly me! I forgot I also have a 1080p-capable smart-phone. - Or, should I just forget about that?
