Do you have to manually move the slide carrier after each slide is scanned?

Yes, the slides do have small indentions. The viewer gives a very good view of what will be capured.

Just a second or two. You place 5 slides in at a time and scan one at a time. Loading takes more time than scanning but that doesn't take long. Just make sure you use a high capacity disk. They are cheap and saves time.

I'm actually not sure. There is a slide carrier that might be what you need to use.

If you've ever used one of those top-loaded Slide Viewers, it's pretty much the same. Slide goes in top slot, capture image, remove slide, and so on. Note other user comments about difficulty in removing slides. You really want to push them in firmly to avoid image cropping, which makes for a tight fit. I have had no problems removing slides but you may want to keep a pair of tweezers or needle-nose pliers handy.

I assume u want a way to use the scanner, not buy another like others have suggested. I'm not sure what you meant by "remove the slide". Is your mounted slide somehow stuck in the scanner and you want to pull it out? Or asking how to unmount the film from the slide frame? If the latter, cut the cardboard and get the film out, then scan. If you want to remount it (but why, since you have scanned it in), there are plastic slide frames you can buy that snap around the slide film.

To load the six slides held by the frame at one time, "scan" each of them, and unload them shouldn't take more than about 15 seconds. How long it takes to organize them once they're transferred to your computer (or wherever else you plan to store them) depends on how complicated a filing system you choose to employ.

4 slides are manually placed in the holder cartridge. You then advance each slide manually through the scanning mechanism. You then frame each slide with a cursor and you are able optimize scan settings for each slide. It's an excellent product and it generates 18 MB or even 50 MB images files for each slide. ***** for my slides.

I just purchased one myself. I have converted several hundred old (1974-1983) 35mm colored slides into digital images. I have had no problems. The one thing I noticed is the way the slide is put into the scanner. The slide cannot always be put into the scanner in the same position it is put into the viewgraph projector. Sometimes it must be turned 90 degrees or it will cut off some of the picture. Once the slide is scanned it can then be rotated back by the computer slide viewer. Don't know if this is your problem.

Yes and yes. There is a 2-1/4 film holder you need to slide the film into to scan it.

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.

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.

No the slides are held in the plastic holder and are protected. I returned the device however because it didn't scan old faded images well. It would show a good version on the LCD, but the scan would be dark. I recently bought an Ion brand and it is much better.

Use a printer scanner for slides and 35MM film and you should be able to scan mounted slides. Both of my printer work

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.

Yes, it does slides. I am not where the device is, but I do think it has a holder. I know we talked about scanning all the diviing slides my husband has. It does also have a holder for smaller photos. We used the holder so that the scanner stays clean and does not pick up anything from the photo surface.

Unfortunately you cannot scan directly to the computer with this device. The scanner scans directly onto a memory card inserted into the scanner. You then have a switch on top you can toggle (scan/pc) that turns the device into a memory card reader for accessing the images. I would have preferred the option of scanning directly to the PC myself but there is a plus side. The scanner itself proves to be quite mobile, you don't need to have it attached to the PC or the PC turned on to operate it. This is handy should a friend have slides they want scanned in, you can just bring the scanner over to their house and scan away. I will say this though, after using it now for a while, I'll probably end up buying a different scanner. The image quality can be great on some shots, but on others, the automatic adjustments can give you a "washed out" image that's overly bright. For instance, on a slide of someone wearing a yellow dress, with the brightness and automatic image adjust, the scanned image makes them look like they are wearing a white dress and the image looks a bit soft and fuzzy (and there's no way to turn off or disable the automatic image adjust). Buy the scanner if you're looking for a cheap quick portable and very easy way to scan slides, don't buy it if you want the very best image available and aren't bothered about price or portability.

Sorry, Patricia, no it doesn't scan slides. I have also wished the same thing, although I only have a small amount of slides - it would still be nice
