Can it scan stereo slides without losing the integrity of the stereo slide frame? I realize that it will not capture the 3d image.

stereo slides were generally taken by the 35mm Twin lens Stereo Realist camera. They are two identical images taken at the same time separated an inch or so apart. Generally viewed by a little hand held viewer. Since the stereo slide is much larger you may have to remove one of the images and scan it separately. You won't have the stereo effect with the single image.

I have no idea what a stereo slide is ? It does a fare job of copying slide !

I would say that this is not a high tech machine . In my experience I was disappointed that it couldn't even copy the slide, much less get a three D image.

Didn't try that application, but I can not imagine that would work well, the item is not easy to get a simple image to scan correctly. I would not recommend it for that purpose.

I have only fooled with this a little, but yes, you insert the slides one at a time and the slide is scanned to a memory card (you supply). I think there is a way to scan to a file on your computer but I haven't been home to try all the features. The operation is very simple, there is a way to specify bw negatives, color negative, or slides. I am a little concerned about the quality of the images, but I need to get an image from a slide I've had professionally scanned, and then compare the two scans.

Have you used this scanner for a mounted 35mm slide? What is the ease of use and the quality of the scan? I am looking for a scanner to scan many, many slides from my father and need ease of use as well as scan quality.Many thanks,Helen

Yes, this scanner has a devise in which you can place several slides and scan - I have not used it. I use this exclusively for scanning photos and the quality is excellent.

It will scan to Mac. I can't 100% say for sure about black and white negatives as I haven't tried this. The slides we had were from the 60's and 70's so some of the negatives were faded and I thought the scan was accurate to the faded color of the slide

I used it for many 35mm color slides and negatives, and got OK results. If you have a Windows machine you can use the software that accompanies the scanner to get better results.I chose this one because it is also a good flatbed scanner.

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.

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 -- you can actually copy a slide with this camera, as long as you stop down to f 5.6 or smaller.

No it doesn't scan slides. It only scans photos but now the end result shows a faint line across every photo scanned. This was cited as a problem that other users have had as well.

While I have not done that setup myself, it should still work. Just keep in mind, in my opinion, the 3D conversion feels a little off. Playing an actual 3D source through it works great though.

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.

Yes. Here is a pic of that scanner with the slide tray: Wolverine F2D20 20 MegaPixels 35mm to Digital Converter

Thanks for sharing your experience. Now, we are forced to buy a new receiver due to 3D capabilities. It is quite annoying...Regards

Hi Vicki, No, this model does not scan slides but Canon has models with that feature. Outside of this question though, I can strongly recommend Canon scanners.... long life reliability. Rossi

I am having the same problem of some slides scanning as negatives and someitmes one slide outof four not getting scanned. I found nothing in the FAQ or on the Canon site for the 4400F about this negative slide image problem, so I sent them an email for help today and hope they have a fix. I'll post it if they do.
