No he tenido tiempo de sacarle provecho, gracias

Bought this for scanning old family negatives - have a good Epson that I use for photos but there is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to negatives and I wanted something a little simpler to use. Have used it several times now and am happy with the result, you just need to be aware of its limitations. The scanner won't do any sort of colour correction or clean-up of the negative so the results may be a little faded or off colour (negatives can "fade" like old pictures) but was able to use a basic Windows photo program with colour correction to restore those. Also, you will lose some of the image around the edges - not a lot but there will be some. That is the main reason for 4 stars overall as it would have been nice if they scanned a little larger even if it meant seeing the holders since it that is something you can crop out yourself. But otherwise it works quite well. My understanding is that this isn't a true scan, more that it is taking a digital picture of the negative but the results are actually really good. The images are pretty clear and I was able to zoom in quite a bit before it started to pixelate. And it is quick to use, only takes a few seconds to take the image and since you are pulling the negative through the scanner you can literally do a strip of film in 30 seconds. Have used it for both 35mm and 110 color film and it worked fine on both. If you are looking for high end archival scanning of negatives, this isn't for you but if you are looking for something to do a decent job of scanning old family negatives then this is something to consider.

A los cuantos días ya no funcionó.

El aparato es fácil de usar, lo usé mucho el primer mes, y después lo dejé guardado. A los tres mese quise usarlo otra vez y ya no prendía. Cero lo recomiendo.

Fácil de Usar, llegó antes de la fecha esperada. Buena calidad.

Magnifico producto, he podido recuperar fotografías que saque desde hace mas de 43 años

Es un equipo muy completo ... estoy transfiriendo y digitalizando mas de 5000 diapositivas y negativos ... B&W / color ( tomando el tiempo de espera ...... durante la pandemia )

Excelente fácil de usar y buena calidad

I was gifted (that is the word I will use as a synonym for "the recipient of unwanted family treasures") several thousand photo slides by my father-in-law before he left the country forever and moved to Panama. I have to say, I was pretty mad. What on earth was I going to do with all these slides? I don't have a projector, and I don't have anyone who would be interested in looking at these images! How can I Mary Kondo my way out of THIS!?Despite my protests of "We will never even look at these!", my partner did not want to get rid of the slides, so we wondered for a long time what to do about them. We eventually came to the conclusion that while it would be time-consuming, it would be much more cost-effective to scan/digitize the slides ourselves rather than ship them out to a third-party company (which I am told you can do). I began this long and arduous quest -- of Middle Earth proportions, one might say -- on the 17th of October, 2020. I anticipate it will take me many months to complete, but Frodo didn't get the One Ring to Mount Doom without a bit of work on his part, did he?After scanning upwards of 1100 slides (so far), I cannot recommend this item enough. It may take you a while to do, but scanning old photos/slides/negatives yourself is weirdly rewarding, and it will give you a glance into the past of your forebearers -- one which may have otherwise been forgotten.PROS+ This is very affordable for what it is; at just over a hundred bucks, this will far outweigh the cost of sending your slides off to a third-party professional to scan for you+ Relatively quick. I have gotten quite swift at doing this and can scan about 100 slides an hour. Although I have a long way to go, the task is no longer as daunting as I thought it would be, as I do an hour or so here and there as my schedule allows.+ Takes an SD card. I inserted an 8GB SD card into the scanner and the photos are being saved to that, rather than to the device itself, which only stores a few dozen images before it is full. Having the photos on a separate memory device is so much more convenient than having boxes upon boxes of slides taking up space in my apartment.+ You can adjust the exposure and the colour of the image on this scanner before you save the photo. This is really helpful as you can fiddle with a photo and scan it multiple times with different exposures, giving you different copies of the same image. I have scanned some images three or four times at different exposures and colour formats to make sure that I am doing the original photo justice. It does not take a lot of time, and it is much easier than having to re-scan a single slide later when you realize you scanned it at an over-exposed setting+ There are lots of tools with this scanner! You can scan photo slides, film, etc. It is fantastic!+ Comes with a little cleaning rod so you can get dust and other specks off the screen. I recommend doing this periodically; I scanned about 30 photos in a row without realizing that there was a black speck stuck on the screen and ended up having to rescan them (ugh).+Plugs into its own power source or directly to your computer. It is helpful to have it plugged in to the computer, as you can switch between scanning photos and viewing them on a larger screen within a few seconds, and this helps determine whether a particular image is up-to-standard or whether you need to rescan it+ The scanner and its parts came in minimal packaging, which is always a bonusCONS- Sometimes, the scanner forgets it has an SD card in it or just turns off after a while (I mean, it is having to do a lot of work, poor little thing). I usually just turn it off and on again and that sorts it out.

This little thing works great, I’m digitising all my negatives quite quickly (I have a lot!). It has the ability to adjust colours and brightness for each neg if needed. The one annoying thing is it’s really hard to get dust specs and hairs off the inner workings, even with the supplied brush. And it’s not till I’ve uploaded the images to my laptop that I notice a white hairline across a face. But uts easy enough to rescan after another wipe with the brush.

Reasonable quality at a respectable price. Does what I was expecting.

I was surprised at how well this worked and how fast and easy. With a shoebox of negatives to scan, I figured I would give it a shot, half expecting to return it. I didn’t even realize the brand name was Magnasonic instead of Magnavox until a dub after I got it, so I was not expecting much. I’ve now had it for about a week and scanned in about 1500 negatives. The speed is amazing considering what it’s like using a flatbed scanner to scan photos. You can slip in a negative and go through the 4 photos in seconds. It actually takes about 3 seconds to scan each photo/negative. Click click slide. Repeat. That’s it. I haven’t had to adjust the color on many photos, but occasionally the whole roll of film will have a color cast to the pictures and using the settings to tweak it a bit saves a lot of post-processing time. I will say that you definitely have to be careful and proactive about keeping it dust free. Every few negatives I’ll give that internal glass a wipe with that lint brush that’s included. One little fiber and you’ll have a line on all your photos. One downside that I found is not really a fault of the scanner but just something to be aware of that takes extra time. Some film processors attached paper strips to the negatives. Those need to be removed before scanning as they don’t fit in the bracket. I’ve also scanned in several color slides and was just as happy. They take a little longer as you have to place each one in the bracket separately, but that actual scan still takes 3 seconds. All results are of course very dependent on the quality of the original photo. Clear sharp negatives look amazing even when zoomed in. Slightly blurry or over/under exposed photos might be disappointing when viewing them on a PC, but if you view the, smaller they should be as good as a print. Overall, I couldn’t be happier. Using this with google photos to sync all my pictures to the cloud means I have a great archive of my family photos and access to them from anywhere. Other items to note: Scans are in jpg format. No raw images. Internal memory holds less than 40 photos but using an SD card instead more convenient and holds hundreds or more depending on the size. I saw somewhere in a q&a from the seller that you could scan movies by grabbing each frame and then using software (not included) to convert the still images to a moving picture. That may be possible but would probably take forever. They should just say no, it just takes still images off movie film. Lastly, if you load the negative wrong, you can flip and mirror the image with a quick click, but it’s often difficult on the tiny screen to tell if the images is flipped left to right (mirrored). You may end up needing to fix those later on a PC. I’m sure if you look at the coding on the negative you can load them right each time.
