There are now such devices, not terribly expensive - $300 or so - that scan movie film frame-by-frame. This is different from using a digital cam that relies on the speed and resolution of your computer to capture as much as possible. With this method each frame is scanned. Playback quality depends on the speed of computer and graphics capabilities but even at average the quality is supposed to be good and you can always get a faster PC as time and budget allows.
