The media could not be loaded. My mom passed away about 5 years ago and my dad has taken it so hard that he threw out all the family photos so he wouldn’t be reminded of her. Luckily, he found the negatives, so I’ve been digitizing them. At first, I just wanted to get started right away and didn’t want to spend much money, so I went ahead and ordered the Kodak Mobile Film Scanner for $39. It was the cheapest one out there. With further investigating, I decided it probably wouldn’t be the best solution if I wanted to have good quality. I had looked up on youtube how to make your own scanner using your phone, glass from picture frames, a tablet (for the light), a box, and some tuna cans. I downloaded the Kodak app and tried it out. The quality was terrible! So I figured the Kodak Mobile Film Scanner would be about the same. So I decided to search online and read reviews on amazon for the best scanner out there. After all, if I’m going to spend all this time scanning thousands of negatives, I might as well make it worth it and get quality good enough to print if I wanted to. The problem with reviews, though, is that everyone has different standards of quality. I read some reviews on the same items that say the quality is great, while others say it’s horrible. So I decided to base my decision on customer’s photos of the results of each product. So before the Kodak even arrived, I decided to order the Epson v550. It is a flatbed scanner but also does negatives. (I received the Epson days before I received the Kodak, even though I ordered the Kodak a couple days before ordering the Epson—both on Amazon.) The Espson v550 is the latest model and costs less than its predecessor (v600). Comparing the Espon v600 ($200) with the Epson v550 ($160), they are pretty much the same. The only difference is the software. The v600 has the capability to get rid of scratches and imperfections on negatives AND photos that are scanned (with Digital ICE software), while the v550 only despeckles negatives. Since I wasn’t worried about photos, I figured for $40 less, I’d go with the v550. If using one of the negatives holders, like for the 35mm film, it is very easy and you can simply place them and press scan. The 35mm holder can fit two strips of negatives. If using 110 negatives, which does not come with a film holder, you have to either place them directly on the glass, or buy an adapter. Since I had a lot of 110 negatives, I went ahead and bought the 110 adapter. Using 35mm film, one thing to keep in mind if you want the negatives to be scanned in a particular order, is that it scans the bottom negatives first (the ones closest to the edge of the cartridge.) Software Settings: Full Auto Mode is really easy, just press the “start” button on the machine and it automatically scans individual frames (provided you are using the templates [holders] that they provide with the correct film.) I scanned 413 frames in 8 hours. All I did is place the negatives in the cartridge and hit the Start button on the machine and walked away for a few minutes. It did the rest. I did have to do the initial settings on the first run. It scans each frame, one at a time, so it takes about a minute per frame. This was on the setting to make the end result 4x6’s at 300dpi, and I didn’t have Digital ICE checked. Digital ICE removes scratches and flaws on the negative. To get out of auto mode, press the “start” button (or open the software), then click “pause” with your mouse, and change to “Home Mode.” Full Auto Mode is great for 35mm film, but if using another size, like 126 or 110, it has to be done in Home Mode. On Preview you have to select each frame in Normal preview mode, otherwise it cuts the frames in half. I found that 3200dpi was best for the 110 negatives, which makes it over 300dpi once it is enlarged to 4x6 inches. I didn’t try any higher, though. In Home Mode, it will go up to 4800dpi, but in Professional Mode, it will go up to 12,800dpi, but doesn't do negatives. One thing that is very frustrating is that after you select each frame, you have to click “All” before scanning. Otherwise, it will only scan the last frame that you selected. “Remove dust” sometimes blurs the eyes, as though it registers eyes as dust spots, so I make sure it is not checked in Full Auto Mode. “Digital ICE” makes it really slow, but is very good at removing scratches. “Color Restoration” is pretty good, too, for adjusting color. For large batches that don’t have a lot of scratches, I just use Color Restoration, but for negatives that I want to spend more time on, I use both Color Restoration and Digital ICE, then I go further into Photoshop. Pros and Cons of the Espon v550 Pros •Produces excellent quality photos. •Digital ICE and Color Restoration features in the software are excellent as well, and saves time from having to photoshop. (You will still need to photoshop some, depending on the negative.) •Has the capability to scan a multitude of different sized negatives, as well as regular photos and documents. •Easy to use. •The actual working part that you do yourself is not much, so it’s fairly quick compared to if you were sitting at the table with your phone, taking photos of each individual frame, especially if you are scanning 35mm and have it on auto mode. Cons •It does not come with the 110 template, so you have to buy a very expensive adapter or make your own, or have them on the direct glass, which can make the negatives move around a lot. •When selecting the individual frames, it is very difficult to see because it shows it so small. It would be nice to zoom in a little bit. It can zoom in, but only on one frame. Conclusion Overall, the Epson v550 is well-worth the money spent. It is excellent quality, easy to use, and pretty fast. It is really amazing that it can turn a 1/2” size negative into a 4x6” (up to 8x10 inch [at 4800 dpi]) photo. I've included some images for the review that compare the kodak mobile scanner with this one. You can clearly see the difference. I've also included a video showing how to use it with a 110 negative adapter. ... show more

    • Read The Reviews Before Buying - Check Settings Before Scanning!
I am a web designer/programmer and amateur photographer that has over 25 years experience with digital imaging. I bought this mainly to scan 50+ year old family slides. It was fairly easy to use out of the box, but please double check the settings before you start scanning. Do test scans, check sizes & quality. One thing that most people don't understand, is that if you want a large print of something you scan, the scan also needs to be large - large in terms of the number of resolution or pixels per inch. How do you make that happen if you're scanning a tiny slide or negative? You adjust the dpi - dots per inch - of the scan. The higher the dpi, the larger the print you can print. If you think you're going to want to print an 8" x 10" of that slide of grandma as a child on her pony, your digital image needs to measure AT LEAST 1536 x 1024 pixels minimum (citing web source). If you scan too low on resolution, you're going to limit print size or quality of what you can do with the digital image. Low dpi images scaled up look terrible, but you can always scale down high dpi images. Because of this, I was scanning slides at 1200 dpi to be better safe than sorry. Operating was easy, intuitive to a degree. Interface on my Mac was like one other reviewer said, pretty cheesy. Looks pre OS X. It was functional, which is most important. As I said above, you should fine tune for slide scanning and save your settings if you're going to do a large number of slides. Biggest recommendation based on slide scanning only is turn off all the adjust settings except auto exposure, and then fine tune for each batch on a slide by slide basis if necessary. Once you get into the rhythm of scanning batches of slides, it goes by fairly quickly. I did about 300 slides off and on over a weekend. Color restoration was spot on every time I used it. ICE technology never seemed to make a difference so I quit trying to use it. Overall, I'm happy with performance of this scanner for the price I paid. No complaints other than the interface being sad and in serious need of updating for Mac. Additional advise that has nothing to do with the scanner itself: Buy this scanner, take it & your laptop & go to your parents or grandparents house for a weekend, scan those slides, photos and negatives NOW. Your family has stories to tell you about the people in those photos. If you wait until they are gone you won't know who those people in the photos are or their stories, and you won't have spent a memorable weekend with your family, making new memories. ... show more
