Note: I'm in no way involved with this project, but it's pretty killer and wanted to share.

We just backed it for $129 for the 16mm and 35mm 1080p and 4k downloads, but 16mm scans start at $49 for 1080p.
Really cool, over halfway funded, 19 days to go, wanted to share!
Pictures are really big, decided to link instead of blowing up the board haha.

Grain35 - Beautiful 35mm Film Grain Scans for your DSLR and 4K Video
Your DSLR shoots amazing video - but it's missing the beautiful grain pattern of real 35mm film. Grain35 is a set of real 35mm grain scans that you can easily add to any video project.
Film grain scans are a favorite of production professionals, but the good grain packages out there are expensive - really expensive. With Grain35, we aim to make high quality HD and 4K grain scans affordable to small studios and indie producers for the first time.
Grain35 is:
1. Super high quality. Grain35 uses 4K Arrilaser DPX scans of six 35mm film stocks, all shot at three different exposures and delivered to you as ProRes 4444 or h.264 downloads.
2. Both HD and 4K. To our knowledge, Grain35 will be the first real 4K grain scan package in the world. You'll be able to use the HD version of Grain35 with your DSLR footage, and the 4K version with your Red Scarlet/Epic footage.
3. Available for most editing systems. Grain35 works with Final Cut Pro 6, 7, and X, Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer, and others. Really any video editing system with a composite or blend mode will work with Grain35.
4. Easy. Just import your grain clip, drop it on your timeline, and select "overlay" mode. That's it - just loop and tweak to your liking.
5. Affordable. If we can raise the funds to cover the necessary film stock, camera rental, lab fees and laser scans of the negatives, then we can make this way, way less expensive than any other professional film grain package.
