does this scan negatives

I have had a number of epson scanners/printers, and they usually come with an accessory for negatives if it is a feature of that model. Call customer service epson and ask if that model # has that feature.....

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 had not worked with negative film until I read your question, so I got out a strip of 35mm color negatives and put it in the scanner. After selecting "negative film", I looked at the first negative on the strip, and discovered that the image looked exactly like previous slide images had looked! There is no additional external software with the scanner, but conversion from negative to positive is built into the internal conversion program. What you see in the scanner viewer looks like a small print. Transferred to the computer, you wouldn't know whether the image came from a slide or a negative. To me, this makes the conversion process even more simple. (Any manipulation you may want to do after getting the images onto your computer can of course be done with any of a number of different image processing programs.) Hope that helps!

It does have the slot for negatives but like another customer mentioned, if the negative has a slight bend it will not feed through. I bought this primary for looking at slides and found that trying to look at negatives was frustrating. I don't know what is out there for negatives other then a light box. Wish I had a better answer for you. Good luck in finding something.

Yes. It's a pretty standard scanner, so it has a large bed that can accommodate large negatives. It comes with several adapters that lay on the bed and are specific to 35mm and other sizes. On larger negatives, I place them directly on the bed without adapters and get good results.

Michael, it includes (or did when I got mine) the negative holder for medium format negatives, and the software may auto recognize the frames. In general, you will end up having to use the full driver to acquire the image, but since you were acquiring from a better source to begin with, you would want to use the full driver anyway.Be sure to dust the negative and the scanner before starting, as the dust removal works to some extent, but you want clear images, so take the extra time to clean the hardware and image first.

Yes. It comes with negative and slide holders. Have not scanned either so get answer to their effectiveness.

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.

Yes, the V600 will scan a negative and then send the information to a photo printer. In the V600 user manual this is explained under "Using the Scanner as a Copier". Thanks for asking the question as I did not realize this.

Not sure what you mean by 'positive' but if you scan a black and white negative it will create a black and white image of what was on the negative that you can transfer to your computer and print like you would any other photo. Hope that helps!

The scanner does not come with any software. The scanner shows the negatives on the screen, and copies them, in the correct colors. Black and white negatives come out a little red, but the color negatives come out ok. Once you copy the scans to the computer, you can use any picture editing software to change the pictures as you desire. I am very happy with the job the scanner has done so far.

I haven't tried black and white negatives but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. As I have said to others, the best results for this unit are scanning actual prints. This unit will scan negatives at 1200 dpi but there may be better negative scanners out there. This is a great unit for scanning a large pile of prints to an SD card at a low cost (still very time consuming).

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 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.

It has a special slot that holds negative and slides in the lid and uses backlighting to scan the item. Once the item is scanned, it appears just like any other scanned picture on your computer.

I believe so, there is a plastic mask that holds the negative, the scanner then scans the film and the mask creates the outline. I don't have 120 negatives, but the scanner has worked well with 110 negatives, and those little round discs of the 70's.

Absolutely. My only problem with the scanner was that it said that it could scan negatives but failed to say only 35 mm negatives. It scans photos great and I'm happy with the results.
