After the punched tape was sucessfully read, I moved on to actually scanning Super 8 Images. While I was doing my research about the exact geometry of Super 8 film I stumbled upon the CineToVid project which happens to do just what I am up to: scanning movies using flatbed scanners. I do not want to use anyone else's software, though but the CineToVid Wiki is a nice source for inspiration about the transportation device for moving the film segments forward.

For the first steps I simply advance the segments roughly by hand, as for I just want to scan a few frames for a short (think two seconds) test sequence, since for the moment it's more about the software to extract the frames. The picture in the gallery shows a few scanned frames with less than perfect settings.
