" ... This is really good for mass scanning, stack all your slides on the right, slide them in one after the other, stack them when they come out. ... You would not want to use it to decide which slides to scan -- it is easier to scan them all then delete. ... "
" ... Scans everything and converts well ... "
" ... It was so much easier than I thought it would be to use and I have been pleased so far with the results from scanning. ... "

Yes, I can tell they are scans and not digital originals, but unless the original image has an overly broad dynamic range I am very satisfied with it. ... Image on screen is bright and clear, but it is a small screen. ... "
" ... The images are good but not great. ... It will be interesting to see print quality when we eventually enlarge and print some of the pictures. ... "

" ... I haven't yet determined if the color cast is due to the age of the slides and film, the original photos, or if the scanner is contributing to the problem. ... "
" ... It has the functionality to adjust the color and darkness, but you could also do those on your own time with better software if it really mattered to you. ... "
" ... Colours seem true, image sharpness is good, there are settings for colour correction as well as contrast and exposure. ... "
" ... 3) Adjusting the color saturation (especially for red) worked better than I thought it would. ... "
" ... And color adjusting worked- if needed, usually blue. ... "
" ... Ignore all color, white balance, and resolution settings and scan at default. ... "
" ... I actually returned one of these devices because the negative had a strong green color cast, which was correctable with the color balance screen. ... "
" ... Since most old negatives have color balance off from age, you will need to edit them in a photo editor program. ... Pictures are from B&W and color negatives I scanned. ... "

" ... It helps a lot with sorting out those pictures taken way back when which were actually poorly taken photos, and not paying $1.00 for junk pictures like those getting developed. ... "
" ... I have now seen pictures that I have never seen before. ... "
" ... The images are good but not great. ... "
" ... If the photo is shot correctly, there is no need to edit. ... "
" ... Very happy with resolution for viewing photos in iPhoto. ... "
" ... The quality of the scanned images is very decent. ... "
" ... So far I have over 50 pictures saved with the 32g SD card and I use a Nikon Coolpix at a high pixel setting. ... "
" ... It's more like a camera engineered to the very specific job of photographing film. ... "
