REVIEW & INFO

Honest review and information

As I was looking for a reliable film and slide scanner that can digitize old photos and negatives with high resolution, I stumbled upon the DIGITNOW Digital Film and Slide Scanner, which boasts of a large 4.3-inch TFT LCD display and the capability to convert 35mm, 110, 126, and Super 8 films, 8mm film negatives, and slides to 22-megapixel JPEG images. I decided to test it out and see if it can deliver the features that it promises.

First off, the digitization process was quick and easy, as the film scanner is designed with scanning instant capturing technology that digitizes the instant preview, resolution, brightness, and coloration of your photos. I was able to see the results immediately on the 4.3-inch LCD screen display, which is a great feature if you want to edit or adjust the settings before you finalize your digitized photos.

Another feature that I appreciated is the easy-load film trays, which allow you to continuously load negatives or slides and make scanning more efficient. The ability to digitize 35mm, 110, 126, and Super 8 films and 8mm film negatives, as well as slides, means that you can capture and preserve all of your old memories with just one device.

The DIGITNOW Digital Film and Slide Scanner also comes with multiple accessories, including a positive film holder, 110 positive film holder, 110 negative film holder, Super8 clip, 135 film holder, USB cable, cleaning brush, and user manual. You can easily connect it to your Windows PC or Mac via the USB port, and you will see colorful JPEG images on your computer screen without any need for software.

One downside of the product is that the TV cable is not included, which makes viewing the digitized photos on your TV a bit tricky. Also, the package does not include an SD card, so you need to purchase one separately if you want to save your images directly to the card.

In terms of image quality, the DIGITNOW Digital Film and Slide Scanner did a decent job. The 22-megapixel JPEG images were clear and crisp, and I was able to zoom in without losing detail. However, some of the photos appeared a bit grainy, especially those that were taken back in the 70s and 80s.

As for the customer review, it received 3.7 out of 5 stars from 232 users, with some users praising its efficiency and user-friendly interface, while some commented on the graininess of the images and the difficulty of accessing the slides from the tray.

In conclusion, the DIGITNOW Digital Film and Slide Scanner is a good product for anyone who wants to digitize their old photos and negatives, especially those taken in the 35mm, 110, 126, and Super 8 formats. It offers a large LCD display, multiple accessories, and an easy-load film tray to make scanning more efficient. However, the lack of a TV cable and SD card in the package, as well as the graininess of some images, may be a concern for some users. Overall, it's a worthy investment for anyone who wants to preserve their old memories for the future.
