Not bad for a 'off the wall' 16mm to digital transfer. A very worthwhile improvement would result if you didn't use your camera's microphone to pick up the audio; the resultant projector noise and room acoustics are distracting. Instead, run an audio line-out lead from the projector's amplifier (not however the speaker line), to the camera's audio-input socket. As this is usually a 'mike input' some form of attenuation is essential to avoid gross overload distortion (e.g. resistor network, potentiometer and/or hi-to-lo audio line transformer). Then 'try again', but instead of less than a minute, upload the whole reel. Cheers, Charles, O.A.S.A (Old Aussie Smart Ass :-)
