Thank you so much for reviewing our product! We are so glad you love the Slide N Scan as much as we do!
You are very welcome. I am happy that you enjoyed the video!
Thank you for the video. I just got my Kodak scanner, exactly the same as you demonstrate in the video, but it always give the SD card fault, which I bought from Kodak as well. I have a MacBook Air, connected to the slide scanner, I tried to format the card, but no success so far. I would deeply appreciate some help.
so the scanner won’t read the card or the Mac won’t read the card? Try formatting the SD card to an xfat (exfat). This format is universal for Mac and pc.
Easy directions. Now I can scan hundreds of slides with some confidence. Thank you
You are most welcome. Thanks for watching!
This thing works like a charm. Thank you for the video.
You're welcome! It is a pretty slick devise.
Thank you so much for the detailed video. Excellent ❤
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!!!
What a Great review, I was hesitant to buy one but now I will. I have hundreds of slides from the 70’s, Thank You!
Thank you for watching and the nice comment, I am glad that the video was helpful. Enjoy scanning!!!
I've been using mine for about a week now. Once you y the hang of things, you can go incredibly fast. I converted about 70 slides in under 20 minutes, and now can load them into Photoshop and edit. I've been really happy with it. I tested several different brands and models from $79-$700. This little $179 model I got from Amazon has been great. The more expensive models that have queing stackers didn't really save much time at all for the extra money and the image quality wasn't any different, considering I'm just digitizing for editing afterwards. Plus, the auto feed models often still need to be manually aligned slide by slide anyway. Imo it's the best bang for your buck digital converter out there. Don't waste your money and time on anything else.
Oh a quick side note, the 7 inch model doesn't seem to come with an included mini HDMI to full size HDMI cable which in and of itself is worth at least $20
That's great! Thank you for your comment. It is well appreciated.
This is a real saving grace for those of us still scanning with our ancient Nikon Super Coolscan 5000's
That's funny. I looked up the product that you are talking about and it takes 20 seconds to scan a single slide. My Powerslide X takes almost a minute to do one slide at 1000DPI. The only saving grace is that it is self loading up to 50 slides.
Well done review! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful and thank you for watching! Please make sure to support the channel by subscribing if you have not already.
Thank you very much for your video...!!! I have hundreds of slides of my father in the 60's and thousands of negatives... I will purchase this Scanner...!!
I'm Horacio from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Hello Horacio. I am really happy that my video helped you make a decision. Thank you for watching!
Superb review thanks from the UK 👍
Hello UK!!!Thank you! I’m very happy that you liked it.
Definitely jumping on this instead of overpaying for half a$$ overpriced scans from a shop. Thank you for the detailed review.
Glad to help
Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Great no nonsense instructional video by some one that knows what they're talking about. Not your usual Steven Spielberg wannabe. Well done I'm getting one.
Thank you very much!
Really good and clear, good job
Thank you!
looks like a nice tool for archiving family pics for those who do not have proper copying equipment.
It works great. I like it.
Those are some pretty sharp images from that camera
It does a pretty good job!
Great review that was very helpfull.
Scanning the cardboard slides work a treat, do you know if there is enough clearance for scanning the slightly thicker plastic surround slides?
Yes, I believe it should be just fine for the thicker plastic slides. Thanks for watching and you comment. Please make sure to subscribe to help support the channel!
Hi, thanks for the review. Do plastic slides fit OK? I've heard others having some problems with scanning them, compared to the cardboard slides? Sorry if I missed this being covered.
Thanks!
I am sorry but I do not know, I don't have any plastic slides at the moment to test them. When I do, I will try and remember to get back to you! Please make sure to subscribe to help support the channel if you have not done so already. I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for video - really helpful. I can't seem to delete pictures on scanner - please help.
If you have deleted the files and still see the image, try turning of scanner off and wait a few seconds and then turn it back on. I believe I noticed the same thing when I first used it. It is like it has cache files (temporary files).
I have a 35mm movie trailer that I've been wanting to digitize. Would this do the job?
I know it would take forever, but I'd like to give it a go
As long as it is 35mm, you should be able to slide it through frame by frame. It will take you a long time. Good luck! Let me know how it goes. You could video tape what you are doing with your phone and send it to me if it works.
Hello, many thanks for this video. I have a question about slides frames thickness. Is it possible to use 1.8mm thick frames, and same question for 3mm thick frames ? Thanks 🙏
The plastic guide that the slides are inserted into is only meant for the thickness of a 35mm slide.
Thanks for your answer. I know that only 35mm slides are accepted but due to the film brand, several types of frames were delivered to contain the slides. Kodak (Kodachrome, Ektachrome were always delivered with thin carton frames (1 mm), but Agfa or Fuji (or some others) have often delivered their slides in plastic frames more or less thick. If some of these plastic frames are as thin as the carton ones, some are thicker (1.8mm and even 3mm). Most of my slides are 1.8mm and I also have some which are 3mm. That's why I ask the question. -> Have you got the opportunity to work with these thick frames with this Kodak device ?@@TheMediaNerdMT
No, I have not had the opportunity to work with the thicker frames. Thank you for your comment and please help support the channel by subscribing.
12:20 so you have to manually do every frame on the negative? no automatic scan mode?
Yes. You must slide in every one then hit the scan button
I noticed it didn't capture the entire image as it was cutting off some from side to side. Is there an adjustment that can be made to capture everything?
I believe it has a zoom feature to go in and out
Is it possible to scan film from Advantix cassettes? Does Kodak make an adapter for that type film? Is it 24 mm? Thanks
I don't know. Sorry.
One thing that everyone does well is showing the setup, the loading, scanning and adjusting. But, no-one has said how to load to a computer from the SDcard in the scanner. Help!
Assuming that you have a USB port on your computer, you would need an SD card reader that you can purchase on Amazon or a local computer store. You just attach the SD card reader via USB and then put your SD card into the reader. You should then be able to see your files and copy and paste them to your computer.
@@TheMediaNerdMT What's the point of the usb upload function that you glossed over in your demonstration? Wouldn't the scanner have the options to copy the photos to a pc?
Do you know any slide scanner that will Panaview slides?
I do not. Sorry
Hello! I recently purchased this product and I was wondering how it is possible to use this scanner if my roll of film can’t be exposed to air once I rewind my used film? Or is there a certain amount of time I have to wait to get these pictures scanned into digital format? Please help
you need to get your film developed first. Call you local camera shop to see if they develop film or where you can send it.
@@TheMediaNerdMT Thank you so much!
Nice video/review! Does it has any sort of ICE dust/scratch removal build-in? Still using my trusty Nikon Coolscan V ED. Great but rather slow. Funny 2nd hand prices for this one are more expensive as I ever payed new for it! But this Kodak seems very interesting too.
No, it does not have scanning software. I found that photo shop has good ICE tools.
Makes my scans blue
That's weird. Did you check the color settings?
Hi. How do you start to scan if you've just finished the whole film roll?
Sorry. I don’t understand your question
The pictures on the screen look rather blue. Is that how they look on your computer screen, after transferring, or is it just the screen that gives a blueish look ?
They do not look blue on my screen. All monitors display color differently. On that note, you can adjust the color in a simple picture editing program to get the color how you would like.
Ok thanks for the info@@TheMediaNerdMT
You are welcome.
If they wouldve Had added 120 scan ir would be a definitly buy
I think flat bed scanners has adaptors for 120.
Wait, is it ok to scan them sideways like that? Or do you have to correct the orientation?
It’s ok to scan them in any direction as far as I know. You can correct the orientation on your computer easily
this would be a 13MP scanner. 130MP would be more than even most professional scanners, more than most professional cameras, and 10 times more than 4208 x 3120.
Yeah. Sounds like you are mixing up megabytes and megapixels. Check the specs on the machine yourself.
How much does something like this cost?
The Amazon link to the product is in the video description. Thanks for watching!
Did you mean 13 megapixels
yes.
needs more mega pickles
I misread the mp but things like this happens
You need to use SD Cards??? What the heck is so hard about scanning the image and sending the image to one's computer??? I have to put them on a SD Card and then read that card into my computer that no longer has any ports for gadgets?
There is a USB cable to plug the unit into you computer to send the files over but you still need a SD card to save you files to. I am not Kodak I just did the review.
"white gloves" ...are you alright man, like really!
white gloves are good when handling photos and film so finger oils don't get on it.
Dommage ce n'est pas en Français 😔
Je pensais faire des versions françaises. J'ai essayé l'espagnol pour voir comment ces vidéos fonctionnent.
