thanks for all the input so far. I have 2300 ft most of it is good footage. there are a couple that seem over/underexposed in spots and I am hoping to be able to adjust the brightness somehow. Can this be done with telecine equipment? Walgreens actually said $26 for a dvd, but no footage amount and they send it out. The telecine idea sounds good I was looking for a better option but not finding it for less than $350 and thats just a bit out of budget right now. I'm trying to find a relative with a good cam corder to try taping from the screen but no luck yet. tried with my phone and web cam but it didn't turn out well.

Make sure you're using a projector with variable speed adjustment so you can sync up the frame rates to reduce flicker.
