When transferring super 8 cine film to video can you please tell me how to avoid the flickering created as a result of the cine film running at 18 frames per second and video running at 25 frames per second. Thank you.

My solution was (with Double8) to adjust the speed of the projector up, to correspond with the camera speed 25. It is not easy to avoid flickering! Not all projectors are adjustable as much as this. --------- Afterwards, I had to 'Stretch' the film in MEP to the normal speed (+35-40%). (Perhaps I also set shutter speed on camera to 1/25 sec.)
