Anyone know about converting Super 8 film to dvd? Is the DIY equipment worth buying or not?

We have old super 8 movies of my mum and family (she recently died) and we want to get them done before they disintegrate.

 

My husband wants to convert the super 8 movies to dvd... but its very expensive to do. Also looking into buying the equipment ourselves. They cost up from $1000 to $5000, the ones I have seen... dont know if its worth it.

 

Is it worth it to spend up to thousand(s) to have someone else do it... or buy the equipment ourselves and then resell when we are finished?

 

Had anyone here bought the equipment from USA?

 

Suggestions and opinions appreciated as we are just unsure at this point what to do.

 

thanks

🙂
