dumb question. as someone who shot plenty of super 8 about 35 years ago, what I don't see here is the projector? That was the part that sort of sucked (not to mention editing). You still need a projector to consume this media, right? Or is it just teleported through some hipster USB device now...

They include processing and digital transfer.

it's teleported to some hipster cloud storage now.

It's color negative film anyway. Probably gives better quality scans and is a bit cheaper.

[Edit: And actually I don't believe Kodak makes a reversal Super 8 film any longer, although others do.]

Yeah, Kodachrome processing stopped about 5 years ago, since the chemicals were too nasty. I think Kodak still sells B&W reversal though.
