Pacific Image PrimeFilm 3650U

Pros: It works!

Cons: It's slow!

The Bottom Line: If you have slides or filmstrips you want to convert to digital images, check this out.

Review: I admit it, I am an old dinosaur from the Permian age of geological history. At least when it comes to photographic technology. Believe it or not, my children, far back in the mists of time, say about 30 or 40 years ago, there was a photographic medium ...

Pros: High quality scanning, good colors, Digital ICE cleans up scratches

Cons: Slow, clumsy loading, no auto feeder

The Bottom Line: If you're looking to get all your 35mm film & slides onto your computer, this is a good bet.

Pros: High resolution, numerous adjustments, good scans of good quality/emulsion film.

Cons: Software crashes. Slow. One frame scanning. Not ideal for "grainy" negatives. No Color Calibration slide.

Pros: Can scan any length of film strips. This is the feature that attracted me.

Cons: Terrible quality hardware. Appears to go bad just sitting there.

Review: This is the second primefilm scanner I've bought. Neither one was good for more than 40 scans, if that many. The first one failed after about 10 scans and I returned it to the dealer. The second one failed after about the same number of scans, but I ...
