The Home Movie Day website also has a good listing of film transfer
houses, with a focus on transfer houses that can handle small gauge
film (e.g. 8mm, super 8mm, 16mm). Not any listings in NY, but there
are some in the Northeast US, including one in NJ.
AMIA-L is another good resource. You might want to search the list
archives for threads on this fairly common topic.
