[Konvas] DSLR telecine (off topic)

[Brad Leong]

A while back my dreams of making my own RED like camera were crushed… : )

Had a new idea and wanted to get the konvas input to see if it’s less ridiculous – 
Is there a way that I could fashion a makeshift yet high rez telecine machine using a DSLR sensor?  It wouldn’t be able to run at real time but it would hopefully be able to produce some high rez frame by frame scanning.  Thoughts?

I don't know much about how telecine machines or film scanning works but it seems like sense the sensor CMOS size is equivalent you could build something rather easily that just advances the film over the sensor and snaps a picture with every advance.
