Magnasonic All-In-One 24MP Film Scanner with Large 5" Display & HDMI, Long Tray 35mm Negative Film Holders, Converts 35mm/126/110/Super 8 Film & 135/126/110 Slides into Digital Photos, Built-in Memory

I have used this scanner to scan 965 Pictures. With a minor adjustment to the carrier I was able to slide the negatives through the machine without changing carrier insert which increased the speed of reader dramatically. Does a really nice job.

This is an amazing tool and easy to use. It is not automatic and you have to load each negative strip into the holder and then slide it into the machine. scanning negatives is tricky because you can scan them backwards and never know it unless you recognize the background and can tell that it's backwards. It's also easy to adjust the colors, but I accidentally adjusted one and forgot to change it back and ended up with several photos having a red hue to them. That was my fault but just beware. The setting are pretty easy to figure out and Overall, I think I got my money's worth. It took me 10 hours, but I scanned all of my negatives that I've been packing around and collected for 60 years. Now I can throw them all away.

The box received without the machine only 3 trays where included in the box

Good value and performs well, easy to operate, fast scan times The lack of raw format output means some visible loss of quality but it is fine for digitizing old family negatives or slides (as advertised) for the average person the extra negative trays (purchased separately) ae useful but one is forced to by them in a pack of three of the same kind, rather than mixed, such as one for slides and another one for negatives, or individually as per need. The extra trays are only needed if you want to scan several negatives or slides at a time, otherwise the supplied trays are sufficient.

It cuts off left or right. So you have to slightly push or pull the slide tray a bit and hold it as you choose who or what you want to cut off in the picture. Gently insert each slide. If you try to go fast to do a bunch, it will shift the slide inside the tray a bit. I got pretty good at learning how to use it that I only used the single slide holder. This was easy to make minor adjustments of the slide in the tray as needed one at a time. I wouldn't want to do that with a multiple slide holder as i would have to remove the tray anyways to fix each one if they were slightly off. It seems cutting off a portion of the slide is typical with these different brands of home use scanners. I just adjust it so I cut off a tree or something insignificant. It has brightness levels that helped when I needed a little extra light on dark photos, but the default settings did pretty good I think. It gets power from the USB of the computer. It will alert when it is full of built in memory. Then you can switch the scanner to transfer mode and it will show up like a USB stick dive in the computer to copy the files. It makes JPG files. 6000 x 4000 pixels. 72 dpi. 24 bit. sRGB
