Does this scanner make each negative a separate file, or does it make it one and i have to crop each slide?

Hi, Alex. This scanner will make individual files of each image; for instance, if I scan a negative strip with four pictures on it, the scanner will ultimately make four files. If you're on Facebook, check out my page Harrison Photo Restoration & Archival Service. It shows a considerable amount of the work I've done with this scanner, including 'before and after' images. I love this scanner and think it's amazing.

The scanner asks which file you want them to store the scanned image in.You can crop after the images have been stored on the hard drive with what ever computer program you use, or that's the way I crop mine.I store all my scanned images in one file with a subfile of date scanned.Hope this helps.

Yes. It can scan slides (positives) and film negatives, but you need different holders for each. I recommend that you buy a couple of extra holders (slide or strip) if you have much to do.

I purchased an Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner. It scans slides, pictures and negatives. The scanner takes 4 slides at a time. Worked great. I had about 1500 slides from the 60s. The Kaiser Mini let me sort thru them quickly. Was a great winter project.

Yes, you can see the image as soon as you slide the negative or the slide into the scanner, you don't need to hit the scan button. As a matter of fact whenever I want to record a high resolution image, I use this scanner just to preview and select the images I will scan later on using a high end scanner.

Yes. When you load a color or B&W; negative into the scanner, you see the image as a positive. During the setup, you must indicate whether you are loading negatives or slides (which are positive images). There is a bit of a learning curve to using the scanner - but nothing too terribly confusing. The instructions that come with it will walk you through.

Kathy, you control how you put the negatives through the machine, so it doesn't reverse them unless you put them in a certain way. Also, you choose what you want to digitize. The black hard plastic slide frame you see in the picture is what you slide through the machine. Let's say you only want one photo from the group, you slide the frame into place, push the scan button and then the ok button to save to the sd card (must purchase separately). It really is easy to use and I like it better than the scanner I already had. There is more control, I can see the pictures on the screen right away to decide if I want that one or not. Very handy little machine. Kathy, you control how you put the negatives through the machine, so it doesn't reverse them unless you put them in a certain way.

I have never used it, but there is a menu choice in professional mode for either black and white or color negatives. I have used it to digitize slides as jpeg files and it worked fine.

Hi there. This scanner saves in the following formats: BMP, JPEG, JPEG2000, Multi-page TIFF, PDF, PNG, Single-Page TIFF, and XPS. Enjoy!

I have been scanning strips of negatives. A negative strip has to be at least 3 frames long, but if you have only one negative there is a single frame holder that you can use. The scanner has setting for negatives or slides. The negatives I have done so far have turned out fine when downloaded to my computer. BE careful of your fingertips on the negatives, one scan had a nice thumb print on it. Hope this helps.

You are supposed to be able to. I never used it to scan slides but did scan negatives and it worked great.

I had to use an SD card. I didn't find that to be an issue. The scanner worked great, and I did several thousand slides!

Agree with BigBadBalrog - it works fine with mounted slides. But, it is a one at a time process. We have mostly used the scanner for 35mm negatives and that works well as long as the film piece is long enough - otherwise you need to insert the negative in a holder (included).

Yes, it does. It also converts a color negative to "positive" colors. You select the type of material you are scanning at the beginning (slides, color negative, b&w; negatives) and then it displays the correct images on the screen until you change the setting.

First you save image to the memory card than you take out card and insert it into your computer and save the file to whatever directory you want, the scanner saved the image of a slide as a negative than I had to covert it to a positive image in paint shop pro and save it, hope this helps

I am not completely sure on that question. I have not used this for negatives as of yet. But on the box it says "scan slides and negative, including medium format". I'm not sure if the 120 negatives you are referring to are considered medium format. If they are, then I suppose this answers your question. If not, sorry I could not be of more assistance.

HI, it is possible to scan your old negatives. BUT, handle them with great care and align them without using the "slide holder". If they are wider than the holder unfortunately they will have to be cut down. Visit your local "STAPLES" etc and buy a piece of wafer thin clear Perspex, cut this to be the same size as the "slide holder", use 2 pieces and just trap the neg, use a bit of cellotape on the leading edge to hold the 2 bits together and this will act as a hinge to make it easier to load. Download "picassa" on your pc and you can then remove any dust or other marks from the negs. Have fun, anything is possible.

Thanks a lot! Any other suggestions? All-in-one with medium format slide scanner?
