My dad left dozens from the 1960s and 70s. I have converted a few with Vietnam footage but there are many other vacation videos, etc.

My intent is to screen once or twice - to entertain family and to assess which ones should be converted to digital.

It's worth doing as an end in itself. Not necessarily instead of digitizing of course. Projectors are fun. Are these Kodachrome, do you know? Most likely.
