Has anyone used these sheets to scan slides? If so how well do they work?

If you are scanning from a flatbed? they are not made for that. You can't see through the page, sorry to ruin your time saving idea.

I used these sheets to organize hundreds of slides before scanning. They worked well for that purpose. I was able to organize my slides in the order in which I wanted them scanned to a disc. They also store the slides well in a notebook.

I use the slide holder that came with my scanner. Can't help you on this one

I have not done it yet, but the specification say that it will, and that's one of the reasons I bought it. It has settings for positives or negatives, and for color or black and white (and many other settings). So far I have scanned over 1500 color slides and I am amazed at the quality for this price. It comes with a slide holder and a negative holder.

No, Kathleen, your slides won't be damaged in any way and this scanner does a good job. I was real satisfied with the negatives I scanned also and glad I ordered the negative carriers when I ordered the slide carriers.

So far, I have only scanned 35mm slides, but it is my understanding that the answer to your question is "yes."

There are two caddies that come with the scanner. One does normal slides and 35 mm negatives. The other one has an opening that is 2 1/4 x 8 1/2. I think you could do the slides there. I have used it for older over-sized negatives with good results.

I haven't tried to scan any negatives yet - still working on slides. I'm sure that it will scan any negative though since it scans what it sees whether it is color or black & white.

Hi Jay, I have to say I'm puzzled as that is not what I experienced when I have scan negatives. You are not scanning slides are you? I have tried that. I'm sorry if I am not much of a help.

I took a chance that these carrier sheets would somehow work with my S1300i, and I found they perform just fine, without any modifications at all. I've used just one sheet so far, and I've scanned at least 100 pages successfully. Pages have gone askew only a couple of times, and there was no damage to the carrier sheet. There are minor vertical roller tracks on the sheet, but they don't seem to be affecting the scan quality noticeably. So, they're pricey for what you get, but they work well with the S1300i.

I used it to look at old individual slides surrounded by cardboard and it worked well. I have not tried it on 35mm negative strips.

Good Morning Karen, I'm sure that you can. There is a place and little devise that you use to scan them and slides. I believe it will work just a GOOD as the photo scanner works. I love my scanner. I have scanned approx. 500 photos in 3 different sessions and I still need to do many many more. I have negatives that I will be scanning also. Good Luck and again I LOVE MY PERSONAL PHOTO AND NEGATIVE SCANNER. YOU WILL TOO... Sincerely, Mary J. Kinch mkinch@aol.com

Yes it scans slides from 35 mm film, and the result is much better than that from my Epson V700.

I bought the carrier sheets to work with our Fujitsu PA03360-0013 SCANSNAP. They are excellent! I typically use the sheets for 11x17 sheets of paper, but also works well for torn papers. The SCANSNAP comes with just 1 carrier sheet - wish I had bought the additional carrier sheets earlier. Sorry, no idea if the carrier sheets work with Epson models. They are inexpensive enough to buy and try though.

yes, works very well, we use them for school projects as well as gaming instructions we print off the web; just keep an eye on the type of binder you get; some of the binders I had on hand were short along the width and the sheet protectors stuck out a bit when the binder was closed.

Patricia--you are a life-saver! Thanks so much for taking the time to put together your tutorial. I've been paying between 75 cents and $1 each to scan my Dad's slides. With over 1,500 more to go this is definitely more cost effective. I had an HP scanner that supposedly did slides but the results were nothing like what you are able to get on your 4400.

I'm not familiar with what you want to scan, but I think the answer is yes. One of the carriers has two slots about 2 inches wide that run the length of the carrier, about 10 inches. I found a second slide carrier online that had an image of it so I was sure it was the right thing. I suggest you do a search for a carrier for the format you want to see if it is right.

The scanning quality is excellent (max = 600dpi). I have not tried to scan in negatives, but the scanning that i did perform caught sufficient detail i would suspect it would be fine. As for slides, that is a different question, as they are in the cardboard; i don't know if that will mess with the focus (being off the glass). Scanning resolution: Max = 600dpi in Jpeg or Tiff. I will run a negative through the scanner hopefully tonight and will let you know for sure.

I bought it specifically to scan a collection of Kodak color slides taken in the 60s - 70s along with old prints and it has done an excellent job. I would recommend it. Here's a review from PC Magazine written in November 2009: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2355184,00.asp
