I bought one of these to transfer 1000 slides dating from 1959 thru 1985. It is excellent at this function. Resolution can be set at either 1800 or 3600 dpi, and the resulting jpg or tif files are of excellent quality. There's very little degradation of the image from the scanning process, colours are as good as the original, and it works very well with its Photoimpression 6 software. The carriers take 3 slides or 6 negatives. The software offers the option of scanning negatives rather than slides, but I have been unable to invert the negatives having previously scanned slides. Nothing in the Help section assists you with this.

Please put pressure on the manufacturer to make it Mac-compatible - I've been following your ads for a year now in the hope that I could at last buy one of these gadgets. But still not...

It would be handy to know at what resolution this digitises film. Without this fact it is impossible to assess whether it is worth a light. Epson make scanners which operate at high definition mine is 2400 dpi. thus giving an 18meg file from a frame. The digitisation definition well-exceeds that of a medium speed colour-film.
