Excellent, I have hundreds of slides and negatives that needed to be stored digitally before the images begin to loose their transparency. Although I already had a photo scanner it was a slow and painful experience trying to scan the material. This photo scanner made it simple. It’s easy to use and takes both slides and negatives. I was also able to scan 126, 110 as well as 35mil film. Very pleased with the quality of the results. The scanner can also be used to view slides and negatives. Easy to set up and use.

This works, and is easy to use. Worth the price

I have many thousands of negatives and slides to scan and get them into the digital age. I had hoped that this Kodak scanner would be just right, but unfortunately the image quality is just not quite good enough. It is really simple to set up and use, and strips of negatives are scanned very quickly. Slides take a bit longer as you have to align the slide in the holder exactly. You can rattle through films very fast. However the price paid is that the resolution is not really good enough. Unfortunately there is no alternative but to use a dedicated professional film scanner which takes a lot of time but the image quality is far greater. The old saying that you get what you pay for is true, and this little Kodak scanner would be reasonable for the images produced if it was sold at under £100, but not the price it retails for.

I bought this scanner to digitise 35mm colour negatives – this is all I have used it for, please bear this in mind when reading my review.Initially I bought a DIGITNOW scanner that was considerably cheaper – this arrived in a less than good condition and generally I was unimpressed so I returned it and decided to splash out on the Kodak. Because the Kodak must be used with a memory card it ended up costing considerably more but I am very pleased with the results and have no regrets.Having scanned hundreds of negatives, these are the plus points as I see them:> Simple to use> Produces good results> Has an excellent 5″ screen – essential if you wish to vet negatives before saving (many competitors have a tiny screen)My criticisms are as follows:> Build quality is good but given the price it is surprisingly lightweight and rather plasticky> All images must be saved via a memory card – other makes will allow direct saving to a PC. In use (and having got into a routine), this was not the problem I had anticipated before hand> Whilst navigation is largely easy, when you are in gallery mode with a number of images saved then moving around the images is rather tediousObservations:> The cradle for the negatives does allow the negatives to move about – you just need to be aware of this. That said, it does mean that you can change strips with relative ease (you do not need to remove the cradle each time)> The wand supplied to clean the lens and backlight is utterly useless and I use an air duster with tube attached. It is necessary to remove the cradle then the tube can be placed in the aperture> I had problems getting the cradle in the first time, there seemed to be considerable resistance. However, guided by other users I pushed it very hard and it located; since then it has been fine> There are basic adjustments for brightness and colour and image resolution may be altered from 14M to 22M. I operate the scanner on the higher setting (22 megapixels) seeing no point in doing otherwise. In terms of brightness and colour, never once have I found it necessary to adjust these (it can be done more effectively on a computer)Other than points mentioned above there have been no issues and I would highly recommend this scanner albeit that given the price, 4 stars seems fair rating.
