Will the Veho 008 scanner accept 35mm transparancies in plastic frames? These are thicker than the cardboard type. I have asked Veho support this question, and they sat they don't know, as they have never tried it!

I transferred both cardboard and plastic mounts. The plastic mounts I had were about the same thickness as the cardboard. It will not hold glass mounts; they're much thicker. If your plastic mounts are very thick (I haven't seen such mounts) you can take them out and remount them although that may be a lot of work.

Hello jerseyboyI feel that you can convert negatives. Although this scanner did not come with a negatives converter like the Epson perfection 2480 -2580 if you can get your hands on one (black plastic with pre-cut holes and slightly raised to allow focusing) plus the instruction book that came with that scanner it will probably work since this V330 is easier to operate.. I think Epson did omitted that piece of plastic because most people did away with negatives with the instant cameras and smart phones. Hope information helps.

I just tried importing with Doxie docs and pics scanned from other devices. It would not do this task. Doxie gave me the error message that these items were not scanned by Doxie. This is a great scanner but will not do what yu ask. I would contact Doxie to see if there is a workaround.

I am not really sure, however I had old pictures which were a little thicker than a credit card and they scanned without any problems. I also scanned my passport book, my license, and credit cards. I hope this helps. If you have any other questions I would be more than happy to help!

My guess is that you could scan the negatives without using the 2 1/4 inch carrier by just laying them (emulsion side up) on the glass But I don't think the light source will illuminate the extra width evenly and the edges will be darker than the center. You could scan these negatives in two strips, making sure each edge is within the illuminated boundary. Then carefully assemble the pair in Photoshop, sort of the way you would assemble a panorama of separate images. You could scan really large negatives that way. This is a very good scanner for very little cash. If this workaround works for you, you wouldn't need a much more expensive scanner for larger format transparencies or negatives.

Most of what I have (90-95%) are Black & White negatives, and I see from a review at http://www.imaging-resource.com/SCAN/CS9000/9000F.HTMthat FARE is disabled for B&W; film (it thinks the whole emulsion is dust).Have you scanned many B&W; negatives?Also, have you scanned any contact prints/proof sheets (I imagine it does those just fine, but I just remembered those?If this does good with B&W; negatives - then that's' what I'm looking for - as I need a general purpose scanner too.

99% of my slides were from a half frame 35mm canon demi, taken 30+ years ago. Some were taken vertical but the "ION" just flipped them as needed. A very good investment indeed, my brother has many thousands of "full" frame mounts to transfer. The holder will take 25 cardboard mounts or 20 plastic ones, all take 2 seconds each to copy,-----You can then "doctor" as needed before final storage with PC etc;

Yes I did. In the end I bought the v700. Its a great machine for microfiche or any transparent film for that manner. Its easy to make scans that are so high res that they are physically bigger than Photoshop can open. At the time I don't think I could find anything better without spending a few thousand more. Its been 3 years since we got it so they probably have a new model, but this one is perfect for our fine-art reproduction needs.If you have more questions shoot us an email to sales at HistoricMapWorks dot comVisit the website in the link if you want to see some scans of maps that were previously on microfiche.Best Yes I did.

Make sure the negative is in the adapter part and not on top of it. Also, is the negative one of four in a strip. If you're scanning a sole negatives, you have to take the adapter out and fit the negative in the open space and then replace it in the machine. It should work if you're on the correct setting of 35mm. Good luck

I did not purchase this exact item because I think this is an updated version of the one I originally purchased. I returned it. It was extremely difficult to work with in scanning slides, very slow and the color resolution was awful. I eventually purchased a Canon CanoScan 8800F flatbed scanner from Amazon (probably five years ago) and love it! I scanned almost 15,000 slides and it is still going strong. Easy to work with, great for scanning slides, negatives, photos or documents. I have Windows XP and it is compatible. Remember, I purchased it years ago so I am sure there is an updated version of the one I have. I cannot say enough good about it. Not to mention customer service for Canon products is located in the U.S. I have contacted them twice and always received knowledgeable, understandable and quick resolution to my questions. I think I paid right at $200 for the Canon, but it would be worth it at twice the price. I would strongly encourage you to NOT purchase the Pacific Image unit.

Not really. I tried scanning OLD poloroid photos that were glued to the back of cardboard, you may be too young to remember those, but it didn't like those too much and I used my big copier/scanner for those. Also, it likes some old newpaper and not other so I would be careful about what you put thru. It did an amazing job on my photos, tho, like we got printed in the old days from Walgreen's so you can compare your project to those items. My Mom uses it for her printed out geneology that is on regular 20# printer paper and it does great. Don't know if I answered your questions but I tried.

I'm looking for a way to scan the negatives too. FilmscanUSA has an adapter that supposedly works. I have tried to scan a 110 negative and it works but because the 35mm slot is too big it is hard to keep the negative in place.

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.

It definitely scans cardboard mounted slides. I have no advice on glass mounted slides.

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.

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).

Vaboo! Good topic.I've got a box of *everything* -- 110, 35mm and 126 negatives. The problem is the software doesn't really allow for this film format . . . I'm going to see if they have a SDK or something to hack that.Any suggestions for the 110s?Also, can someone suggest a good (cheap) negative viewer? That pana-vue #2 looks perfect except it's for slides.Thanks in advance!
