Done - and contrary to the Pentax survey abomination, this one actually is properly designed.
I like the question about movie film and the further details regarding what kind of movie film. Maybe they'll start producing some super 8 or double 8 film.

I can process and scan it at home
As an aside, what are you using to scan?
It's not going to produce results good enough for a film festival but it's nowhere near as bad as some people claim.
@brbo it's too much to begin to address, and I've already completed the survey so I'd have to pull tricks to get it to open again, so I have to go by memory here. I'll try to summarize my main criticism into a few points:
1: No clear conceptual design underlying the survey. The makers of the survey didn't seem to have a specific expectation of which factors might relate to each other. Surveys are often used to test certain relationships (i.e. how does price influence willingness to buy etc.), but the data resulting from this one won't allow much in the way of explanatory analysis.
2: OK, you might argue that they weren't trying to do anything explanatory, and instead try to explore customer views instead - i.e. emphasis on descriptive statistics. But in this case, the makers didn't seem to have a clear idea of the total spectrum they were trying to cover - there were areas in which pretty common preferences didn't fit well into the survey items, and preferences that were left unexplored entirely. There was also a conspicuous lack of attention for basic demographic factors, which you virtually always want to know in market research (Harman's survey is very brief in this regard, too, but at least touches upon some of the essentials).
3: Lack of use of routing; sometimes, you have certain questions that apply only if someone answered in a particular way on a preceding item. This wasn't used, and instead, they stuck with a half-a$$ed compromise involving poor follow-ups that didn't work for some use cases, and poorly for the cases where they did apply.
4: Most importantly: mixing several constructs into single items, which invariably results in poor data quality. If you ask for two things in the same question (provided this is sensible to begin with, which is usually not the case) and then don't think about the answer categories really thoroughly, you end up with responses that aren't representative.
5: Long lists of answer options that weren't MECE, resulting again in poor data quality as well as annoyance with respondents: try answering questions that have 20 answer categories - how diligently will you do this, especially if you run into several of these in the same survey?)
...and probably some more.
They'll get something from their survey alright, but the quality of the resulting data will be quite poor. Overall it's just very confused, fuzzy and essentially high-school level. Which is OK if you're doing a school project, but doubtful if you're a multi-billion corporation doing market research. In my view, at least.
In all honesty, they did pretty much everything wrong. But hey, sometimes getting it wrong is better than not getting it at all. There's that.
Thanks, I've wondered about that, actually. People are very harsh in their criticism of quality without being specific.
As for the Pentax survey, they may only be after the answer to one or two of those questions and not really care about the rest. But I agree with the points made by Koraks.
If you're interested here is a short clip
That looks pretty good. Looks like it got the frames accurately. It is a shame that you can't opt to get the output as a stream of individual images, though - that would allow you to do a lot more. But I guess these things are still designed and marketed as a way to get old 8mm & super8 reels digitized, and they figure people just want video files.

No.18 should have multiple choice options : I started bulk loading AND shoot more expired films
