Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have all these old slides and negatives that I've been meaning to convert for several years now. I finally caved and bought this scanner so I could at least get them on my computer.
It does an okay job. It is not archival quality. It scans quickly and easily, you can adjust the exposure and a few other things in the unit.
I never intended to print anything out, and it's fine for just converting the memories to digital. It's a little fiddly to use - the slide carrier only takes 3 slides at a time and I find it a little difficult to fit them snugly into the carrier. I haven't used the negative carrier yet, but it looks like it takes a full strip of negs.
I thought I would be able to plug it into my mac and upload the scans as they were scanned, but no. I have to plug the scanner into the wall socket, scan the images to an SD card then transfer them.
It seems a little temperamental too - sometimes it won't turn on so I'll unplug it from the wall once or twice, close the lid and open it and eventually it will switch on.
All in all, does an okay job. A little fiddly. Probably a bit too pricey for what it is. I would not buy it again, that's for sure.
