*The **Bestt.Digital** slide scanner was exactly what I was looking for. It's easy to use, and converted my slides to good quality digital pix. I recommend it highly.*
Oh, my goodness! I thank you for explaining the procedure. I just opened the scanner. The manual is USELESS! I watched another person explaining it but I couldn't see what buttons his fingers were pushing. You have saved me. I'm going through 30 years of negatives to see which I want to have scanned. You're a life-saver!
Oh my gosh! Joanne, this is my favorite comment! I'm so happy to hear that! I hope this scanner serves you well, and 30 years of negatives really sounds like a treat. Have fun scanning! Let me know if there is anything else I can help with!!
This Kodak scanner seems to be the simplest most affordable and effective way to collect your old picture memories from your films and negatives. Much better than using one of those online apps that collect, store and share your data. They also have tons of pop up adds and are less cost effective due to the recurring fees. Some users have complained that these apps also crop, color or enhance your pictures automatically but in randomly awkward ways. Nearly all of my negatives are from 110 cameras but according to another review this Kodak scanner has an adapter to fit these types of negatives. So I’m definitely going to check out this Kodak scanner. Thank you so much for sharing!
Definitely agree with the color "automatically" being enhanced is not always the best or consistent. I have found it pretty easy to bring all the images into Lightroom and color correct the jpgs pretty easily. But I absolutely hate apps and all the upsells they do, I find it harder to use them. So, when I purchased this - it was simple, easy to use, and a one-time purchase. As for the 110 cameras, yes, this scanner has numerous adapters making this a great options for a ton of sizes!! I hope you LOVE it if you get it. I find a use for it at least 2 - 3x a year and still enjoy it so much; well worth it for me. Hope you find it the same!!
Hi! Yes, your film rolls have to be developed first and then you can scan them. You can either development them yourself or take it to your local camera shop for developing only then scan them at home. Normally it can save you about $3 per roll if you scan them yourself.
Thanks for the review of this scanner. It helped with my decision. I have a thin of negatives from travelling when I was younger and recently decided my b winter project would be making art from the good shots. Bought this to help with that goal.
I used a phone app to invert negatives awhile back and it was nice to quickly sift through a bunch of negatives to find the ones I wanted to scan. Are you still getting use out of this machine?
I tried an app, and to be honest, I simply wasn't good enough at it. I couldn't hold the camera & the negative still enough that it would work well for me. For right now, this scanner still works great for me, and I do love it for scanning images to use on social media & it cuts down my developing costs!
I found two trunks full of film and pictures when my mother died. I think they go back to the 50s. Do you think this would work well or should I invest in a more expensive machine to digitize my negatives?
Oh my goodness, how fun! I think it really depends on what you're looking for. If the negatives are really delicate, I would invest in a local shop to digitalize them for you, and if you want them printed, you might want a scanner that allows for better quality. This one is perfect for me to scan for digital use, but if I wanted to create 8x10's or something larger, I wouldn't use this scanner. Hope that helps!
(Apologies for the delayed response! Getting back into the swing of RUclips!!) 📸✨ I still have this film scanner and still absolutely love it! Did you wind up buying it??
Super 8 is video and would need to be processed through a different digitizer (KODAK REELZ Digitizer: amzn.to/3LIVvG0). I think you could do some still scans through this digitizer and then crop them, because you're right, Super 8 is super thin strips. I've never tested it though - hope that helps!
Can I scan Super8 on this particular scanner? Its because the ones I’ve seen are SUPER expensive and outside my price range, its for my grandparents since their wedding tape(a few minutes long) is on Super8 and thought it would be sweet to digitize it for them. Thank you in advance, its okay if you don’t have the answer. Just wanted to know. 😅
I’m looking into purchasing a film camera so I’m a newbie. After I’m done taking photos with the roll do I have to take the film anywhere before I can use this Kodak scanner? Or can I take it out the canister and start scanning right away?
No, you'd have to get your film developed first. This scanner scans the film negatives, that you can get from a local camera shop that develops. If you're very new to film, I would just find a place near you that will develop film and have them do everything (+ the scanning), then you don't need to purchase this item!
Hi, did you put in the scanner, the film straight from the cylinder where it's contained? Or it is necessary to do a treatment or something... thanks for the video.
Hi Daniel! Yes, you still need to get your film developed. You can either do that at home or send it out to a shop. (I develop my own B&W film at home but send my color film out to get developed for me.) But once you get the negatives developed or returned to you, you can put them through the scanner. Hope that helps clarify!
I have hundreds from mum and dad's familys going back almost 100 years and It costs $1 a negative... Not negative slip... Like per photo so I'll be buying a propper $150 one so it saves lots of money the more you have, and if you put up notices in the paper (for old people) to scan old negatives you'd probably make some money
Haha! That would be a fun side hustle! I know that I'm saving money on my own right now, but I also have a ton of negatives from my family to scan! I haven't gotten around to that project yet...thanks for watching & commenting John!!
Very cool little video. I found some "really" old 126 format family negatives and decided to purchase one of these (new!) I appreciate the review, so thank you.
How exciting! I really hope you love it and it works for you! I'm sure it's gonna be such a treat making those old family negatives something digital and sharable again. ❤
@@BostonSchulz Thank you. Yes, this is really cool. I also found some b&w 645 negatives from the 40's and 50's that I scanned (w/o a holder). Going to print these out to give to my mother for Christmas. Keep the cool videos coming 😁
Hey Suzy! YES - I do have quite a few slides, so I'll try to get a video up within the week to share about slides and the difference. Sorry for responding so late!!
You did it! Thanks! Please borrow or find some 35 mm slides to scan------- Goodwill or junk store? Thanks! BTW your video of yourself and the scanner was very well positioned and done executed very well. Professional look!
I always keep an eye out for film when I'm out thrifting, but I haven't come across any. Maybe I should open up a PO Box and have people send me old garbage film for me to scan. 😂 Thank you so much for watching & commenting. I'm so happy with this scanner -- can't wait to do more!
Enjoyed your video - I've spent hours trying to decide which scanner. Do you still think this is the easiest one to buy? I need it simple - thanks Boston.
Thanks for the review. Could you tell me if it is possible to adjust the resolution of the scanned negatives? Are they in a good quality to print them in a book project in a decent size?
From my usage, no, you can not adjust the resolution (unless there is a setting hidden somewhere that I don't know about). And also, I would not recommend printing these. If I remember correctly, there around 76dpi and I wouldn't trust it to look good enough for print quality. I mention that I only use these for digital / online versions, and I think it's best used for that. You'd probably want to invest in a more professional level scanner or pay a professional for scans for a book project (just my opinion) - hope that helps!
Hello I bought this scanner and looks great but I have a question. Mine crops my 35mm negative edges, like 2 or 3 mm, both horizontal and vertical. Does yours too? Or is it just mine? I'm not sure to keep it.
I'm not sure I noticed an issue with cropping on the edges. I think if yours seems to have a noticeable crop, I would return it and use a local photo shop for your negative scans.
Thanks for asking - I'll update the description of the video to include this info - because that's obviously important! 😂 But the dimensions of the scanned images are 3824x5728 and 72dpi.
Hi! Thanks for watching & commenting -- you actually do have to get your film developed first. THEN you can put them in the scanner once you get the negatives back. Good luck on shooting with your film camera!! 📸
I haven't attempted to rotate it on the scanner screen, as the scanner shows the image as it exists on the film strip. Super easy to open the image in the folder and rotate though so I haven't had any concerns about this.
I probably have my own weird way of doing this, but with the old film, I did not pull on the negatives through the plastic adapter. Since these are curled and really delicate, I figured re-opening the adapter piece to move them was the best option for keeping these negatives safe! All personal preference here; feel free to process your negatives in the best way that works for you! 🎞
Oh! It could definitely be the 70s too. The hair styles just seemed iconic to around the 80s time, hahah! And yes, I'm so obsessed with this scanner. So easy; can't wait to use it more!!
It really depends on how picky I want to be. When scanning strips, probably 10 seconds...when I was scanning slides and was very particular about how each slide looked, probably 20 - 30 seconds per image. It's just clicking a button, but you have to align it in the scanner just right, and that takes a bit of time.
Thank you for the video! I was trying to figure out which option to choose for my slides when it got past the 50mm slide option and it gives you the three films option. Much appreciated!!
Hi Josi! I'm not sure what you mean? I place the negatives in the adapters, then place those in the machine. The reason that I do that (instead of feeding the negatives directly into the machine or into the adapters) is so it doesn't get scratched. It seems better for the integrity of the film, but if anyone wants to feed the negatives directly into the machine, that's perfectly fine! I just wanted to be safer with my delicate negatives. ☺
@@BostonSchulz No worries - your way works, too - just letting you know that's what the instructions say to do. Now I feel like a big ol' dummy when your way is just fine!!!
You have to get the film developed first! Take them to your nearest camera store & they'll do that for you! You can ask them to develop & scan your film so you wouldn't even need a product like this scanner.
i always get so confused when it comes to film. I recently just got a disposable camera and was wondering could i use my film from my disposable on the slide n scan? cause i know you cant expose film to light so ive been so confused on this.
Great question, Salma -- film is VERY confusing (at least, it was to me). Like Skara responded below, you'll need to bring your film (after you finish shooting the whole roll) to a shop or send it off (to a service like nicefilmlab.com/) to get developed. They'll send you back scans after developing. Let me know if you have any questions, happy to help further!!
Apologies for the delayed response, Emily! I just use a 32gb SanDisk card (amzn.to/32DGxit). Can you elaborate on how it won't work? It's acting like it saved the picture but there's nothing on the SD card? Have you tried a different SD card? Is your SD card locked?
I don’t know what the ‘scanza’ is, and also this review is just my experience and review of this product. I had no problem with these holders damaging or scratching my film. I opened and closed the holders pretty delicately, to make sure I wouldn’t scratch anything. But how loosely these holders actually hold the film negatives, I don’t see that being an issue. Either way, this is just my opinion and haven’t had those issues! 🤷🏻♀️
I've found it perfect for me to save a little bit of money and still have good images to post on social media. I love it; hope you love it too, if you get one!!
I don't print a lot of work, and I do mention in this video that I don't plan on printing my film. If there is an image that I want to get blown up, I would probably just get that one professionally scanned. But most of these will just be used online. 😀 That being said, the dimensions of the scanned images are 3824x5728 and 72dpi. Definitely not intended for large prints, but for my usage, I'm pretty happy with the quality!
@@BostonSchulz Do you have an example of a scanned picture? I was thinking that the resolution is quite high. The negative is an analog medium and in theory the resolution should be quite high. 72dpi sound not so good (I am not so familiar with photography)...
@@wronski11 for reference, the images that I send to my clients are long edge 2048 with 72dpi...it's a good size for social media usage. If a client wants to print something, I send a high dpi. I mention in the video, I don't plan on printing my images that I'm scanning here. Most of my images go online, and 72dpi is perfect for my online use. If you want print quality images, I would stay with a film store developing and scanning them for you. Hope that helps clarify!!
Aw, thanks for worrying about my film, Harry! The film used in this video was incredibly damaged, dirty, and old. I only touched the outside of the strips unless there was a reason needed to holding it another way. Then I wiped them off before I put them back in storage. I appreciate your concern, but me and my paws aren't worried. 🎞
Boston - thank you for the demo on the Kodak Slide n Scan scanner, well done! It's one I've been looking at on line to purchase. I have slides from the late 1950's - 1970's that I'm wanting to digitalize of myself/family growing up on a farm. The slides fall into 2 different sizes. The newer ones have an overall frame size of 2" x 2" (50mm x 50mm?) which I assume this scanner has adapters that would work for viewing/scanning. The older slides have an overall frame size of 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" (70mm x 70mm?) with a picture size of 2" x 2". (No sure but his size might be a 126kpk? from internet search) Would any of the adapters be able to hold this size of slide? If no adapters, would there be any way to modify to allow for this size? If this scanner is unable to handle the bigger slides, do you know of any product that could handle both sizes? I have about 300+ pictures of each size I'm wanting to digitalize. I did project them onto a screen using my parents projector and my 4K video camera, so I do have a digital image after running each picture thru PhotoShop. Was hoping this product might give me a better imagine. Some of my pictures are a little out of focus and when I tried to zoom in on a picture, I picked up lines from the (1950's) screen. Plus I couldn't zoom in properly where I didn't have some of the frame or part of the screen showing or both. Thank you.
I love that you're digitalizing family images. That's my next project with this scanner! But yes, it does come with different slide adapters. So it allows for 35mm, 126, and 110 film negatives. So it sounds like it should work for at least some of yours! If you have negatives that don't have an adaptor for this scanner, you should be able to modify something to create your own adaptor for that size (like a card stock cut out with the negative size you need while using a larger adapter with the camera slide...does that make sense?) Hope that all helped! I would just say, if you're doing 300+ images, make sure you carve out some time, maybe grab a drink and a snack while you're going through all of them. It's gonna take some time! But good luck, tell me how it goes and what you ultimately bought!!
@@BostonSchulz Thank you for your response. One more question. With the largest size slide being 2 3/4" square on the frame, is the opening of this scanner wide enough to adapt something? In other words, is the opening at least 2 3/4" wide or more? What is the overall width of the hinged adaptor? Thank you - Darwin.
@@schmink116 www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084NVRHYQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here is the product link, the third picture shows what the slide and the adapters looks like.
@@BostonSchulz I have already viewed this site or similar ones. This still is not answering my question. Right now I can not find a store in our city that has one in stock or I would go there and measure myself. Would you please take a ruler and measure across the width of the hinged adaptor? Is it at least 2 3/4"? If the opening is less than this, then I will know that half of my slides will not fit even if I can create an adaptor. Remember the slide picture is 2" square inside the 2 3/4" frame. The site listed below is for a Wolverine Titan 8-in-1 scanner. When you click on the site, the pictures on the left side showing different views of the item also show a chart with descriptive views/layouts of slides/film that it would accept. The 127 slides depict the style of slide I'm working with except the frame size is 2 3/4" with 50mm picture inside vs. 2" with 40mm picture. Wish all scanner models had this information. www.amazon.com/Wolverine-Resolution-Digital-Converter-Screen/dp/B01MRCNSJT/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=Convert+Slides+to+Digital&qid=1608658568&sr=8-9 I could use a paper cutter to trim these large slides down to 2 3/4" x 2" but then I would lose the strength of the slide for pushing thru the scanner because the cardboard frame would only be on the left & right sides. Also, God bless my mother, she identified almost every slide by writing on the slide the year and brief description or identifying those in the picture. Most of this information would be removed from slide. I plan on keeping the slides I down selected to digitalize in case new technology is introduced in the future. These older slides are stamped with "Drewry Photocolor" on one side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- www.google.com/search?q=drewry+photocolor+sides&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS797US798&sxsrf=ALeKk00fWpnwwbQBcsugNMBDJLRJ3xbQQQ:1608750716207&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=-AK2qf51D1C-jM%252C9SaYVcJLtKMamM%252C_&vet=1&usg=AI4_-kSmN4edEv03293f6C1qb1hA4DeIQA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiGu-K35-TtAhXHWc0KHYV9DDwQ9QF6BAgNEAE#imgrc=1VHsvwoU2FLqqM The link above takes you to a Drewry Photocolor site with images. On the first row, second from left labeled "pinterest.com" image shows various slides stacked. I clicked on this image for a bigger picture and you will see the slide I have. Slide laying on top, center shows the back side with (2) subject lines that my mother used to identified pics. You can see the front on a couple of the slides in the pile and stacked in the green box stamped with Drewry Photocolor. I can't believe my parents were the only ones in the late 1950's that developed slide pictures on this size. Thanks again - Darwin.
@@schmink116 I can’t go measure because I’m currently not with it. Please look up what size those adapters are and make an assumption off of that. That’s all I can help with; good luck!
Hi !! I love photography and I've been looking for a mini scanner for 120 mm format film too. Thanks for posting this video. You are pretty and nice girl !! Regards from Brazil !!
Anybody else who's used this product run into an issue with it not starting up? Can't find any forums or faqs online, and customer service wasn't helpful. When I turn it on, with an SD card inserted, it lights up with a yellow start screen and logo, but never transitions to the home screen. And yet, when I take the SD card out and turn it on, it goes to the home screen no problem. The last time it did this, I had an SD card reader so I could do in and delete everything on the card, and it worked after I inserted a clean SD, but I know the current SD card(s) I have I know is empty. No amount of turning of and on again, pulling the power or hard resetting seems to make a difference. If anyone else has experienced this help a girl out!
I'm sorry to hear that's happening to you! Sadly, I haven't had that issue. I'm assuming you've tried numerous SD cards, all formatted from your computer?
I feel so bad about it! 😂 I wanna give the man his privacy, but I wonder how he got the film processed in the first place. Did he send nudes to get processed & scanned at Walmart and then the film ended up in an attic.....WHO KNOWS.
I bought one of these recently. It's also a slide scanner too. I haven't used it on film though because the reviews both on Amazon and on other RUclips channels have suggested that the frames that hold the film are so flimsy that the film can get easily scratched when inserting it into the scanner. So I wouldn't want to risk putting valuable old film in there in case it damages it. With the slides, I haven't found the quality to look that great. It looks like the quality of an old low resolution camera or cell phone and nowhere near the high quality of a photo taken either on a modern cell phone or on a proper digital camera. When I zoom in, I can see that it's not super sharp but almost looks like a Pointillism impressionist painting that only looks acceptable if you don't look too close. I don't think it's something I could blow up to a large size for either a website or proper print. Also I found I have to clean up the photo a lot in Photoshop. I imagine it could be somewhat similar for film as well. I don't shoot on slide film so once I've finished scanning all the old slides (it's a chore to get through them) it seems as if the Kodak scanner would have outlived its use and almost seems like a one-time use gadget. I suppose if you're shooting film regularly that might be the cheapest way to "develop" it, but maybe there's a more expensive film scanner out there that is better quality and won't scratch your film, and is still cheaper than bringing it to be developed at a photo lab each time.
Great insights & thanks for taking the time to comment! Regarding the slides scratching the film, I don't see this ever being a problem for me. The slides loosely hold the negatives, and the slides I have are not rough. That being said, I've mentioned a few times, that the only reason I scan/use film photos is for social media use, so there is no reason for me to pixel peep or blow things up. For this scanner works great for social media use and someone who wants the nostalgic vibe. If you're looking for top of the line scans, I would always suggest getting them professionally done because it's not that expensive. But for me, this is perfect. Hope that helped clarify my review. :)
But, who are those people. Boyfriend's side, your mother's, father's? I mean it's interesting that you can scan that easily but scanning is just a way to archiving so you need to put names and dates with the images..the people.
I mention in the video that these negatives were found in an apartment that we rented. I don't know these people. BUT, for my personal use, this scanner saves all the images to an SD card and I just transfer them into a folder on my computer with whatever description/name I want. Easy. :)
@@BostonSchulz Yeah, but doesn't it bug you that you don't know who they are? And I wonder if some family member will come across these and recognize some of them. That'd be really neat. Except for..uh, those other ones. So good for you for posting!
@@DennisMathias I would love for someone to recognize these photos so I can send them the negatives! Probably burn the nudes, but send them the family photos! haha
@@BostonSchulz There are thousands of unmarked negatives, photos, and home movies available everyday on eBay and elsewhere, usually listed by third parties who bought them from the families seeking to sell them. Unfortunately most family members get rid of their slides, photos, negatives, movie film, and videos, without ever attaching family names or locations. No one should ever feel bad about coming across orphaned film and using the images for whatever purposes you want including recontextualizing them into art. Again, the majority of family photos on the market were either sold or given away by family members - sometimes even valuable historical images. I agree though that it is nice to try and find a family if you find a very recent camera of any kind, especially if found outside where someone might have lost it. I've sold thousands of photos on eBay and it is extremely rare to sell something back to a family member. Even small towns are getting really uninterested in buying historical phots unless they are incredibly great and rare. A lot of people prefer to download a free digital copy rather than pay for an original so it's best to watermark anything good online for sale. P.S. My own Kodak Slide N Scan just arrived and as I gather my own slides and negatives I hope it works as easy for me as it does for you. Thank you for the video.
Many thanks for test - have ordered one and here my experience: I could not insert 90% of my framed DIA's at all in "Slide N Scan", although DIA's were not thick but rather slim! Then I got my old CANON CanoScan 9000F out of the closet, which still runs good in Windows 10. I timed it: 14 minutes and 36 seconds for a magazine with 36 DIA's. From unloading to loading back into the mag. It was always 4 DIA's scanned in Canon frame with resolution of 1,200 dpi and size of 1.2 MB. Each DIA was blown off and brushed off in between. 24 seconds per DIA --> 50 magazine about 21 minutes. Thickness of the DIA's does not matter. Even old glass frame DIA's work and the scan is actually fast. This is my personal experience. I would strongly have liked my DIA's to work well with the Slide N Scan -- unfortunately not. Gave the Kodak back to AMAZON.
Ah! I'm so sorry to hear that it didn't work for you, but happy to hear that you have another scanning option that seems to be better! I love that you timed it too! I'm all about saving time and finding an efficient way to do our work!! Best wishes to you Christoph and thanks for watching & commenting!
Oh god, I was going to email you and formally ask you out as I find you extremely attractive, but then you dropped the "...my boyfriend got me..." line just a minute into this video and it broke my heart :((( Jokes aside, awesome channel. Keep it up!
Betty, the video is almost 10 minutes long. I'm sure that I didn't spend the majority of the time talking about the nudes. I thought the fun of the video was testing it out on found film...bummer that you didn't enjoy that. 🤷
To my knowledge, you really only need to be wearing gloves if you're touching the emulsion side of film, which I am careful not to do! I don't like wearing gloves, so I probably won't be wearing them, honestly! But it is a good note for more serious film photographers and archivists!
Either my film got crappy or the color on this is terrible. Just first impressions. Need to play with it some more. One thing though - use gloves when handling the film so you don’t get fingerprints and dust on your negatives.
I mention in the video that the film is from (most likely) the 80s and was found in an attic, were it was for at least a decade. Not all film is going to be the best quality! 🎞 That being said, I have considered getting gloves, but don't own any yet, mostly since I just touch the edges of each negative, but I'll look into it! Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Another film video here! What do you guys want to see me review or do next??
🤘📸
@Johnny Rep in this scanner? I haven't because I don't have any but it would work with them. :)

hiii, do you develop your film rolls first before using the film scanner?
Hi! Yes, your film rolls have to be developed first and then you can scan them. You can either development them yourself or take it to your local camera shop for developing only then scan them at home. Normally it can save you about $3 per roll if you scan them yourself.
Thanks for the review of this scanner. It helped with my decision. I have a thin of negatives from travelling when I was younger and recently decided my b winter project would be making art from the good shots. Bought this to help with that goal.

I tried an app, and to be honest, I simply wasn't good enough at it. I couldn't hold the camera & the negative still enough that it would work well for me. For right now, this scanner still works great for me, and I do love it for scanning images to use on social media & it cuts down my developing costs!
I found two trunks full of film and pictures when my mother died. I think they go back to the 50s. Do you think this would work well or should I invest in a more expensive machine to digitize my negatives?
Oh my goodness, how fun! I think it really depends on what you're looking for. If the negatives are really delicate, I would invest in a local shop to digitalize them for you, and if you want them printed, you might want a scanner that allows for better quality. This one is perfect for me to scan for digital use, but if I wanted to create 8x10's or something larger, I wouldn't use this scanner. Hope that helps!
Thanks for this - I watched your video because I am thinking of buying this
(Apologies for the delayed response! Getting back into the swing of RUclips!!) 📸✨ I still have this film scanner and still absolutely love it! Did you wind up buying it??
Great explanation video. Can you please tell me what camera and lens was used for filming this video. (I like the picture and colors of this video).
I use the Sony RX100 V to film most of my videos - it's easy to use and the quality is pretty good for a small & cheap point & shoot. 📸
Does that do super 8 film? I don't know much about film, but i do recognize the film i have is skinnier, pretty sure its super 8?
Super 8 is video and would need to be processed through a different digitizer (KODAK REELZ Digitizer: amzn.to/3LIVvG0). I think you could do some still scans through this digitizer and then crop them, because you're right, Super 8 is super thin strips. I've never tested it though - hope that helps!
Can I scan Super8 on this particular scanner?
Its because the ones I’ve seen are SUPER expensive and outside my price range, its for my grandparents since their wedding tape(a few minutes long) is on Super8 and thought it would be sweet to digitize it for them.
Thank you in advance, its okay if you don’t have the answer. Just wanted to know. 😅
Sadly, no. Kodak does have a Super8 scanner too, but it is pricier. I wish I could help! 😢

I’m looking into purchasing a film camera so I’m a newbie. After I’m done taking photos with the roll do I have to take the film anywhere before I can use this Kodak scanner? Or can I take it out the canister and start scanning right away?
No, you'd have to get your film developed first. This scanner scans the film negatives, that you can get from a local camera shop that develops. If you're very new to film, I would just find a place near you that will develop film and have them do everything (+ the scanning), then you don't need to purchase this item!
Hi, did you put in the scanner, the film straight from the cylinder where it's contained? Or it is necessary to do a treatment or something... thanks for the video.
Hi Daniel! Yes, you still need to get your film developed. You can either do that at home or send it out to a shop. (I develop my own B&W film at home but send my color film out to get developed for me.) But once you get the negatives developed or returned to you, you can put them through the scanner. Hope that helps clarify!
@@BostonSchulz Thank you, very much!
I have hundreds from mum and dad's familys going back almost 100 years and It costs $1 a negative... Not negative slip... Like per photo so I'll be buying a propper $150 one so it saves lots of money the more you have, and if you put up notices in the paper (for old people) to scan old negatives you'd probably make some money
Haha! That would be a fun side hustle! I know that I'm saving money on my own right now, but I also have a ton of negatives from my family to scan! I haven't gotten around to that project yet...thanks for watching & commenting John!!
Very cool little video.
I found some "really" old 126 format family negatives and decided to purchase one of these (new!)
I appreciate the review, so thank you.
How exciting! I really hope you love it and it works for you! I'm sure it's gonna be such a treat making those old family negatives something digital and sharable again. ❤
@@BostonSchulz
Thank you. Yes, this is really cool.
I also found some b&w 645 negatives from the 40's and 50's that I scanned (w/o a holder).
Going to print these out to give to my mother for Christmas.
Keep the cool videos coming 😁
@@scroberts9316 Thanks for the support; I will! Sounds like an amazing Christmas gift!!
@@BostonSchulz

Nice equipment and nice video about it. Is it possible to show doing a slide instead of negatives, or at least tell about it? TIA
Hey Suzy! YES - I do have quite a few slides, so I'll try to get a video up within the week to share about slides and the difference. Sorry for responding so late!!
You did it! Thanks! Please borrow or find some 35 mm slides to scan------- Goodwill or junk store? Thanks! BTW your video of yourself and the scanner was very well positioned and done executed very well. Professional look!
I always keep an eye out for film when I'm out thrifting, but I haven't come across any. Maybe I should open up a PO Box and have people send me old garbage film for me to scan. 😂 Thank you so much for watching & commenting. I'm so happy with this scanner -- can't wait to do more!
Enjoyed your video - I've spent hours trying to decide which scanner. Do you still think this is the easiest one to buy? I need it simple - thanks Boston.
Hey! I'm sorry that I missed this - but I do think this scanner was easy to use and not that expensive so I definitely recommend it!
Those photos were a pretty cool time capsule
I thought so too!! Such a cool little experience to see! 🎞
Dude, I don't usually comment, but let's just say I had to like and comment this video!
I appreciate the support so much, Sanjay!! Thank you!!! ☺️
Thanks for the review. Could you tell me if it is possible to adjust the resolution of the scanned negatives? Are they in a good quality to print them in a book project in a decent size?
From my usage, no, you can not adjust the resolution (unless there is a setting hidden somewhere that I don't know about). And also, I would not recommend printing these. If I remember correctly, there around 76dpi and I wouldn't trust it to look good enough for print quality. I mention that I only use these for digital / online versions, and I think it's best used for that. You'd probably want to invest in a more professional level scanner or pay a professional for scans for a book project (just my opinion) - hope that helps!

This film traveled across countries? How fun! I love that -- thanks for sharing!! 😍
Hello
I bought this scanner and looks great but I have a question. Mine crops my 35mm negative edges, like 2 or 3 mm, both horizontal and vertical. Does yours too? Or is it just mine? I'm not sure to keep it.
I'm not sure I noticed an issue with cropping on the edges. I think if yours seems to have a noticeable crop, I would return it and use a local photo shop for your negative scans.
How large are the jpgs? Pixel size?
Thanks for asking - I'll update the description of the video to include this info - because that's obviously important! 😂 But the dimensions of the scanned images are 3824x5728 and 72dpi.
Quick question. I just bought a film camera. When I’m done with all the film, do I have to develop them or could I put them in there?
Hi! Thanks for watching & commenting -- you actually do have to get your film developed first. THEN you can put them in the scanner once you get the negatives back. Good luck on shooting with your film camera!! 📸
Does the scanner have a "continuous" feeding mode or should I put every film section in the tray, one by one?
It's manual, so you have to place each one in the tray. I found it to be pretty quick & easy, but it is manual, yes.
Is there a way to rotate the image before saving it to the card?
I haven't attempted to rotate it on the scanner screen, as the scanner shows the image as it exists on the film strip. Super easy to open the image in the folder and rotate though so I haven't had any concerns about this.
You are not feeding the negatives properly?
Insert the cassette with proper film adapter, then slide in negatives from right to left
I probably have my own weird way of doing this, but with the old film, I did not pull on the negatives through the plastic adapter. Since these are curled and really delicate, I figured re-opening the adapter piece to move them was the best option for keeping these negatives safe! All personal preference here; feel free to process your negatives in the best way that works for you! 🎞
Great video, cool scanner,I like how easy it is to use . Those photos look 70s ish. to me ? 👏😀✌🏼❤️
Oh! It could definitely be the 70s too. The hair styles just seemed iconic to around the 80s time, hahah! And yes, I'm so obsessed with this scanner. So easy; can't wait to use it more!!
Great video!
Can I ask how long does it take to scan each image?
It really depends on how picky I want to be. When scanning strips, probably 10 seconds...when I was scanning slides and was very particular about how each slide looked, probably 20 - 30 seconds per image. It's just clicking a button, but you have to align it in the scanner just right, and that takes a bit of time.
How’d you get the scans from the film
I put the film negative directly into this scanner and then save the image the scanner produces!
Thank you for the video! I was trying to figure out which option to choose for my slides when it got past the 50mm slide option and it gives you the three films option. Much appreciated!!
I'm so happy that this helped! Hopefully it works out for you and your slides!!
@@BostonSchulz it has, thank you!
Hi..can it scan the photos developed from the film?
Hi! I'm confused about your question. All of the photos I scanned are from 35mm film.
Just an FYI, lol - you are supposed to put the receiver into the machine and then feed your negatives into it. ;)
Hi Josi! I'm not sure what you mean? I place the negatives in the adapters, then place those in the machine. The reason that I do that (instead of feeding the negatives directly into the machine or into the adapters) is so it doesn't get scratched. It seems better for the integrity of the film, but if anyone wants to feed the negatives directly into the machine, that's perfectly fine! I just wanted to be safer with my delicate negatives. ☺
@@BostonSchulz No worries - your way works, too - just letting you know that's what the instructions say to do. Now I feel like a big ol' dummy when your way is just fine!!!
@@geekybasket I'm cracking up, because I never read the instructions. So of course I would make a how-to video and do it wrong. haha
I have a bunch of rolls, is there a way to remove the film from them?
You have to get the film developed first! Take them to your nearest camera store & they'll do that for you! You can ask them to develop & scan your film so you wouldn't even need a product like this scanner.
i always get so confused when it comes to film. I recently just got a disposable camera and was wondering could i use my film from my disposable on the slide n scan? cause i know you cant expose film to light so ive been so confused on this.
Film needs to be developed first. You'll need to find a shop that still does it or send it away to a company that does.
Great question, Salma -- film is VERY confusing (at least, it was to me). Like Skara responded below, you'll need to bring your film (after you finish shooting the whole roll) to a shop or send it off (to a service like nicefilmlab.com/) to get developed. They'll send you back scans after developing. Let me know if you have any questions, happy to help further!!
Next thing we know ur running around with a giant medium format camera haha. Keep up the film content~
Thanks so much Ricardo!! How'd you know!?? HAHA I've been keeping my eye on a few medium format cameras, but haven't pulled the trigger on any yet.
@@BostonSchulz Keep an eye out for Bronicas. They're a affordable alternative to the RB67s
@@RicardoJose-cw5ii Thank you! I will!!
what sim card did you use? i got sdhc 32gb but it still wont work :((
Apologies for the delayed response, Emily! I just use a 32gb SanDisk card (amzn.to/32DGxit). Can you elaborate on how it won't work? It's acting like it saved the picture but there's nothing on the SD card? Have you tried a different SD card? Is your SD card locked?
No mention of the damage that the holders do to the film which others have mentioned about the scanza which seems to use the same holders?
I don’t know what the ‘scanza’ is, and also this review is just my experience and review of this product. I had no problem with these holders damaging or scratching my film. I opened and closed the holders pretty delicately, to make sure I wouldn’t scratch anything. But how loosely these holders actually hold the film negatives, I don’t see that being an issue. Either way, this is just my opinion and haven’t had those issues! 🤷🏻♀️
You did a wonderful job with this review! Thank you. 😊
Thank you!! That's so kind of you!! ❤
Thank you for explaining the process, the same thing happened to me, but your video was very helpful!
Ah, thank you so much, Sally! So happy to hear that this was helpful!
Thanks for posting. Definitely thinking about picking one up.
I've found it perfect for me to save a little bit of money and still have good images to post on social media. I love it; hope you love it too, if you get one!!
But how big can you print them?
I don't print a lot of work, and I do mention in this video that I don't plan on printing my film. If there is an image that I want to get blown up, I would probably just get that one professionally scanned. But most of these will just be used online. 😀 That being said, the dimensions of the scanned images are 3824x5728 and 72dpi. Definitely not intended for large prints, but for my usage, I'm pretty happy with the quality!
@@BostonSchulz Do you have an example of a scanned picture? I was thinking that the resolution is quite high. The negative is an analog medium and in theory the resolution should be quite high. 72dpi sound not so good (I am not so familiar with photography)...
@@wronski11 for reference, the images that I send to my clients are long edge 2048 with 72dpi...it's a good size for social media usage. If a client wants to print something, I send a high dpi. I mention in the video, I don't plan on printing my images that I'm scanning here. Most of my images go online, and 72dpi is perfect for my online use. If you want print quality images, I would stay with a film store developing and scanning them for you. Hope that helps clarify!!
You need to hold negatives by the edge, your paw prints would ruin 35mm film the way you handle it.
Aw, thanks for worrying about my film, Harry! The film used in this video was incredibly damaged, dirty, and old. I only touched the outside of the strips unless there was a reason needed to holding it another way. Then I wiped them off before I put them back in storage. I appreciate your concern, but me and my paws aren't worried. 🎞
Hello Boston, what is the file format that these files are saved on and what is the resolution¡?
The dimensions of the scanned images are 3824x5728 and 72dpi. I believe they are simply jpg files. 📸
Boston - thank you for the demo on the Kodak Slide n Scan scanner, well done! It's one I've been looking at on line to purchase. I have slides from the late 1950's - 1970's that I'm wanting to digitalize of myself/family growing up on a farm. The slides fall into 2 different sizes. The newer ones have an overall frame size of 2" x 2" (50mm x 50mm?) which I assume this scanner has adapters that would work for viewing/scanning. The older slides have an overall frame size of 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" (70mm x 70mm?) with a picture size of 2" x 2". (No sure but his size might be a 126kpk? from internet search) Would any of the adapters be able to hold this size of slide? If no adapters, would there be any way to modify to allow for this size?
If this scanner is unable to handle the bigger slides, do you know of any product that could handle both sizes? I have about 300+ pictures of each size I'm wanting to digitalize. I did project them onto a screen using my parents projector and my 4K video camera, so I do have a digital image after running each picture thru PhotoShop. Was hoping this product might give me a better imagine. Some of my pictures are a little out of focus and when I tried to zoom in on a picture, I picked up lines from the (1950's) screen. Plus I couldn't zoom in properly where I didn't have some of the frame or part of the screen showing or both. Thank you.
I love that you're digitalizing family images. That's my next project with this scanner! But yes, it does come with different slide adapters. So it allows for 35mm, 126, and 110 film negatives. So it sounds like it should work for at least some of yours! If you have negatives that don't have an adaptor for this scanner, you should be able to modify something to create your own adaptor for that size (like a card stock cut out with the negative size you need while using a larger adapter with the camera slide...does that make sense?)
Hope that all helped! I would just say, if you're doing 300+ images, make sure you carve out some time, maybe grab a drink and a snack while you're going through all of them. It's gonna take some time! But good luck, tell me how it goes and what you ultimately bought!!
@@BostonSchulz Thank you for your response. One more question. With the largest size slide being 2 3/4" square on the frame, is the opening of this scanner wide enough to adapt something? In other words, is the opening at least 2 3/4" wide or more? What is the overall width of the hinged adaptor? Thank you - Darwin.
@@schmink116 www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084NVRHYQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here is the product link, the third picture shows what the slide and the adapters looks like.
@@BostonSchulz I have already viewed this site or similar ones. This still is not answering my question. Right now I can not find a store in our city that has one in stock or I would go there and measure myself. Would you please take a ruler and measure across the width of the hinged adaptor? Is it at least 2 3/4"? If the opening is less than this, then I will know that half of my slides will not fit even if I can create an adaptor. Remember the slide picture is 2" square inside the 2 3/4" frame.
The site listed below is for a Wolverine Titan 8-in-1 scanner. When you click on the site, the pictures on the left side showing different views of the item also show a chart with descriptive views/layouts of slides/film that it would accept. The 127 slides depict the style of slide I'm working with except the frame size is 2 3/4" with 50mm picture inside vs. 2" with 40mm picture. Wish all scanner models had this information.

I could use a paper cutter to trim these large slides down to 2 3/4" x 2" but then I would lose the strength of the slide for pushing thru the scanner because the cardboard frame would only be on the left & right sides. Also, God bless my mother, she identified almost every slide by writing on the slide the year and brief description or identifying those in the picture. Most of this information would be removed from slide. I plan on keeping the slides I down selected to digitalize in case new technology is introduced in the future. These older slides are stamped with "Drewry Photocolor" on one side.

@@schmink116 I can’t go measure because I’m currently not with it. Please look up what size those adapters are and make an assumption off of that. That’s all I can help with; good luck!

Thanks for watching and commenting, Paulo! Hope it works perfectly for you!!
Thanks! Was looking for a review of this and this is perfect :)
I'm so glad you liked it!! Thanks so much for watching!!
Anybody else who's used this product run into an issue with it not starting up? Can't find any forums or faqs online, and customer service wasn't helpful. When I turn it on, with an SD card inserted, it lights up with a yellow start screen and logo, but never transitions to the home screen. And yet, when I take the SD card out and turn it on, it goes to the home screen no problem. The last time it did this, I had an SD card reader so I could do in and delete everything on the card, and it worked after I inserted a clean SD, but I know the current SD card(s) I have I know is empty. No amount of turning of and on again, pulling the power or hard resetting seems to make a difference. If anyone else has experienced this help a girl out!
I'm sorry to hear that's happening to you! Sadly, I haven't had that issue. I'm assuming you've tried numerous SD cards, all formatted from your computer?
always remember to never to touch the actual exposure of the photo with your fingers.
Yep! The edges are fair game, and tbh, with personal film that I'm not preserving for decades, it's really not a big deal. 🎞
you should develop all those, just for science research ;) lol
I feel so bad about it! 😂 I wanna give the man his privacy, but I wonder how he got the film processed in the first place. Did he send nudes to get processed & scanned at Walmart and then the film ended up in an attic.....WHO KNOWS.
"old old negatives from the....80's" ????....80's ???? :-D
Sorry, I wasn't even born yet in the 80s... 😂💁
Muito bom, parabéns.
Thanks for watching and commenting!!
That was more like the 70's.

I bought one of these recently. It's also a slide scanner too. I haven't used it on film though because the reviews both on Amazon and on other RUclips channels have suggested that the frames that hold the film are so flimsy that the film can get easily scratched when inserting it into the scanner. So I wouldn't want to risk putting valuable old film in there in case it damages it.
With the slides, I haven't found the quality to look that great. It looks like the quality of an old low resolution camera or cell phone and nowhere near the high quality of a photo taken either on a modern cell phone or on a proper digital camera. When I zoom in, I can see that it's not super sharp but almost looks like a Pointillism impressionist painting that only looks acceptable if you don't look too close. I don't think it's something I could blow up to a large size for either a website or proper print. Also I found I have to clean up the photo a lot in Photoshop. I imagine it could be somewhat similar for film as well.
I don't shoot on slide film so once I've finished scanning all the old slides (it's a chore to get through them) it seems as if the Kodak scanner would have outlived its use and almost seems like a one-time use gadget. I suppose if you're shooting film regularly that might be the cheapest way to "develop" it, but maybe there's a more expensive film scanner out there that is better quality and won't scratch your film, and is still cheaper than bringing it to be developed at a photo lab each time.
Great insights & thanks for taking the time to comment! Regarding the slides scratching the film, I don't see this ever being a problem for me. The slides loosely hold the negatives, and the slides I have are not rough. That being said, I've mentioned a few times, that the only reason I scan/use film photos is for social media use, so there is no reason for me to pixel peep or blow things up. For this scanner works great for social media use and someone who wants the nostalgic vibe. If you're looking for top of the line scans, I would always suggest getting them professionally done because it's not that expensive. But for me, this is perfect. Hope that helped clarify my review. :)

📸🤘
But, who are those people. Boyfriend's side, your mother's, father's? I mean it's interesting that you can scan that easily but scanning is just a way to archiving so you need to put names and dates with the images..the people.
I mention in the video that these negatives were found in an apartment that we rented. I don't know these people. BUT, for my personal use, this scanner saves all the images to an SD card and I just transfer them into a folder on my computer with whatever description/name I want. Easy. :)
@@BostonSchulz Yeah, but doesn't it bug you that you don't know who they are? And I wonder if some family member will come across these and recognize some of them. That'd be really neat. Except for..uh, those other ones. So good for you for posting!
@@DennisMathias I would love for someone to recognize these photos so I can send them the negatives! Probably burn the nudes, but send them the family photos! haha
@@BostonSchulz There are thousands of unmarked negatives, photos, and home movies available everyday on eBay and elsewhere, usually listed by third parties who bought them from the families seeking to sell them. Unfortunately most family members get rid of their slides, photos, negatives, movie film, and videos, without ever attaching family names or locations. No one should ever feel bad about coming across orphaned film and using the images for whatever purposes you want including recontextualizing them into art. Again, the majority of family photos on the market were either sold or given away by family members - sometimes even valuable historical images. I agree though that it is nice to try and find a family if you find a very recent camera of any kind, especially if found outside where someone might have lost it. I've sold thousands of photos on eBay and it is extremely rare to sell something back to a family member. Even small towns are getting really uninterested in buying historical phots unless they are incredibly great and rare. A lot of people prefer to download a free digital copy rather than pay for an original so it's best to watermark anything good online for sale. P.S. My own Kodak Slide N Scan just arrived and as I gather my own slides and negatives I hope it works as easy for me as it does for you. Thank you for the video.
This video actually starts at 4:33, just skip all the yapping and go there

@@BostonSchulz true,
I loved the review by the way, thank you. Actually I ordered it because of your review.
Many thanks for test - have ordered one and here my experience:
I could not insert 90% of my framed DIA's at all in "Slide N Scan", although DIA's were not thick but rather slim!
Then I got my old CANON CanoScan 9000F out of the closet, which still runs good in Windows 10.
I timed it: 14 minutes and 36 seconds for a magazine with 36 DIA's. From unloading to loading back into the mag. It was always 4 DIA's scanned in Canon frame with resolution of 1,200 dpi and size of 1.2 MB. Each DIA was blown off and brushed off in between. 24 seconds per DIA --> 50 magazine about 21 minutes. Thickness of the DIA's does not matter. Even old glass frame DIA's work and the scan is actually fast.
This is my personal experience.
I would strongly have liked my DIA's to work well with the Slide N Scan -- unfortunately not.
Gave the Kodak back to AMAZON.
Ah! I'm so sorry to hear that it didn't work for you, but happy to hear that you have another scanning option that seems to be better! I love that you timed it too! I'm all about saving time and finding an efficient way to do our work!! Best wishes to you Christoph and thanks for watching & commenting!

I really want to know about the machine not all the info on nudes uggg
Betty, the video is almost 10 minutes long. I'm sure that I didn't spend the majority of the time talking about the nudes. I thought the fun of the video was testing it out on found film...bummer that you didn't enjoy that. 🤷
I know those are old worthless negatives but you should be wearing cotton gloves.
To my knowledge, you really only need to be wearing gloves if you're touching the emulsion side of film, which I am careful not to do! I don't like wearing gloves, so I probably won't be wearing them, honestly! But it is a good note for more serious film photographers and archivists!
Half way thru the video and still blabbing about nonsense jeez lady get on with it.
Ooo, if you don't like someone blabbing, I feel like you came to the wrong channel bud.
@@BostonSchulz I see that. Well, blab on then ma' lady.
@@Mr89siR I shall! 🤘
Either my film got crappy or the color on this is terrible. Just first impressions. Need to play with it some more. One thing though - use gloves when handling the film so you don’t get fingerprints and dust on your negatives.
I mention in the video that the film is from (most likely) the 80s and was found in an attic, were it was for at least a decade. Not all film is going to be the best quality! 🎞 That being said, I have considered getting gloves, but don't own any yet, mostly since I just touch the edges of each negative, but I'll look into it!
