" ... Little adjusting and it's ok. Scans do look good. ... "
" ... This scanner does a great job in copying slides but I have not yet figured out how to delete the pictures I have copied. ... "
" ... found this unit to be a great value as i was able to scan over 1000 negative( and a few slides) and copied to digital file about 700 of them in three two hour sessions. ... "
" ... Once I got learned how, the scanning went quickly. ... "
" ... The one that comes with this scanner is fast to load because you just slide the slide into it instead of fumbling to get the top open and position 4 slides then close. ... "
" ... They scanned quickly and easily and transferred to my computer flawlessly. ... "
" ... The best slide/negative scanner ever. ... I would recommend to anyone who wants to easily scan slides. ... "
" ... This will produce scans that may be good enough for posting on Facebook, but that’s about it. ... I compared the results from this scanner to those I produced with a dedicated and larger film scanner a decade ago and they can’t compare. ... The old scans were orders of magnitude better than the ones from this scanner. ... I bought this scanner because I still had a lot of snapshot type photos I’ve finally gotten around to scanning and figured since they were only for casual viewing, the results would be good enough. ...

" ... The unit is easy to figure out, however, it is not that easy to use. ... "
" ... I was surprised how easy this was to use--I'd had a much older version I'd used for years, and this new version is so much easier to load and use. ... "
" ... Easy to use can do mutilple slides , ect quickly ... "

" ... Great picture quality from our negatives ... "
" ... The unit does a nice job scanning and the saved images are very good which is the reason for the five stars. ... "
" ... It was very easy converting old slides to digital images. ... "
" ... If you have any old films it is great for displaying them you can tune the pictures to get better saturation. ... "
" ... Surprisingly high quality scans 60” at 96 dpi. ... "

" ... I snapped it in to scan a photo near the end of the negative strip but when I pushed the plate slowly into place, it bent my negative that was sticking out the other side around the plate instead of it sliding out the other side. ... "
" ... Slide holder is flimsy, awkward. ... Resulting slides are poor quality. ... "
" ... Could not get 35mm negatives to fit in holder. ... "
" ... IN some cases they were somewhat worse. ... "
" ... The negative holder does not allow you to easily insert and remove a negative strip. ... You can try to insert a strip of negatives but they will get stuck in the holder. ... "
" ... These Jumbl scanners are pieces of junk. ... "
" ... However, the tray that the negatives slide through has a real problem with the negatives getting stuck on the left side. ... "
" ... The film adapters are flimsy and not aligned. ... "

" ... Good product and good price ... "
" ... It seems to be priced right. ... "
" ... But I love what it does, especially for the price. ... "
" ... I have only had this for one day, but it is the best hundred buck investment I have made in a long time. ... "
" ... Did the job, awesome for the price. ... "
" ... This product definitely delivers and I now have memories you just can't put a price tag on. ... "

" ... The prints I made with it don't have vibrant enough colors either. ... The Wolverine works well as far as crisp images and bright colors but I'll have to see once I make prints if the colors look good. ... No orange at all and they set it to auto color correct which helps a great deal. ... "
" ... Between this appliance and my "picture easy" program I can restore my old faded negatives. ... "
" ... If you have any old films it is great for displaying them you can tune the pictures to get better saturation. ... "
" ... Adjusting color is fair at best. ... "
" ... The only thing is the color of the image and what the file is are two different things. ... The color will look great on the screen of the machine but when you move it to the computer its a little wacky. ... "
" ... I will probably get pretty good at color correction software or at least I hope I will ... "
" ... most were flawless and rich colored, but several were blurred or dark in the original and the scanner simply could repair those. ... "
" ... As yet I have not used it on a variety of slides, but playing with the contrast and color balance seem of little value. ... "

" ... At the end it was easy to move the pictures from the SD card to my PC, which I could do in large batches. ... "
" ... It is easy to use and by adding and SD card has plenty of capacity before having to download to a computer. ... "
" ... Best of all, you can put an SD card in it (which I did) and just sit comfortably on the sofa and go through them without having to be connected to your computer. ... "
" ... I especially like the fact that it uses a SD card. ... "
" ... It is really easy to copy slides to an SD card. ... "
" ... 32GB SD card (max) will hold over 32,000 images. ... "
" ... Just insert the SD card into computer and add to photo file. ... "
" ... Also, the memory card option means you can take this anywhere, scan your photos or your customer's photos, and take it home for final processing. ... "

" ... The screen is much too small to see any detail in the image. ... "
" ... Then the screen is so small and low quality I couldn't fully edit my captures. ... "

" ... The viewer screen is also small, very dim and very low quality. ... "
" ... the lcd screen isn’t great. ... "
" ... I'm not sure if it's the scanner or the screen, but it does not show the entire picture on the screen. ... "

" ... I'm a designer so bringing the photos into photoshop and editing them wasn't too hard but if you're looking for perfect photos right out of the scanner this is not the machine for you. ... "

" ... Plugged in to Mac and worked immediately. ... "
" ... I especially like that it is a stand alone unit and does not rely on a particular operating system of a PC. ... (example: units that work on XP may not work if a PC gets upgraded to windows 10.) ... "
" ... The connection is solid, it is much faster to use and quite adequate for my purposes. ... "

" ... I don’t know what to do to get the scratches out. ... "
" ... Slide holder is flimsy, awkward. ... "
" ... This is cheaply built. ... "
" ... Considering that it is made of light plastic, this means vulnerability to lead to wear and tear and breakage. ... The plastic parts design leads to scratching of the negative or bending and twisting. ... "
" ... The unit was OK priced but seemed plastic cheesy. ... "
" ... Very poor construction quality. ... The film adapters are flimsy and not aligned. ... "

" ... The red on/off button turned on the unit to the Capture menu as expected, but then none of the buttons worked to navigate through menus ('mirror' and 'flip'), select items ('ok'), or execute a scan ('scan/menu'). ... Once it was powered up and on the Capture screen, the power button will not turn it off - you have to unplug it from the outlet to turn it off. ... I plugged it in and unplugged it carefully several times, after waiting for a response from a singular button press with no action. ... "
" ... Mine just suddenly stopped working after a year and a half---it powers up, but then no response from menu buttons. ... "
" ... Also the sequence of button pushing is not user friendly. ... "
" ... Those few extra (unnecessary) button presses are no big deal if you're scanning a dozen slides, but if you're scaning a few hundred it is irksome as heck. ... "
" ... I did find it annoying that it automatically reverts from the slide setting to film whenever it is turned off. ... "
" ... 3-4 seconds before it will try to power up again when pressing the power button. ... Pressing the power button immediately results in no attempt to power up. ... "
" ... It is unresponsive when buttons are pressed and works very inconsistently. ... "
" ... The only button that worked (half the time) was On/Off. ... "
