KODAK RODFS70 Kodak Slide And Scan Digital Film Scanner 7 Inches Max - Large 7 Inches LCD Screen, Convert Color and B and W Negatives and Slides 35 mm, High Resolution 22 MP JPEGs,Black

Neat and compact and easy to set up and operate. It accepts all standard sizes of negatives and slides. I have also scanned the non standard Kodak ADVANTIX APS film but pictures need subsequent cropping. The 6x4 inch display screen display is excellent, it can be tilted for ease of use. The scan only takes a few seconds and is stored on a 32Gb memory stick which can then be used on a computer. Data can also be uploaded direct to a computer using a USB 'C' connecting lead.Quite pleased with my purchase.

I bought the scanner to digitise my old colour transparency slides. I have a few thousand to do and so far have completed about 400. The scanner is very easy to use and quick. Slides are inserted one at a time and buttons can be used to alter the brightness or colour or simply just scan. No software is required as the scans are stored on an SD card (not supplied). It is powered from a usb port on your computer and the scans can be transferred to computer at any time by choosing the upload option on the simple menu. The only very slight niggle is that it is necessary to slide out the mounting rack in order to tip out the last slide, but that only takes a second or two. Overall I am very pleased with it and can recomend it, especially if you are not very computer savy.

Expensive.Very easy to use, good definition and being able to quickly adjust the brightness and colour is great especially when scanning old B & W and colour film strips.Adjustable screen angle is a bonus.

Excellent product. Very simple to operate and good reproduction from negatives.

Wanted to convert all my 35mm slides to digital. This box of tricks does it all. Colour and b & W negatives converted effortlessly too. Fantastic image quality. All you need to get saving those memories is a 32gb sd card.

This scanner does the job, to be fair, but I have a few quibbles.For one, there are two versions, one with a 5" screen and one with a 7" screen. If your only plan is to scan negatives and to do everything else on a computer, save your money and choose the 5" version.It scans at 14MP. If you want the 22MP option, it simply interpolates up. Photoshop does a better job. The other thing is that it only creates jpg files, with no option to choose any other file format. Tiff would be better. The files that it creates are 72ppi, which is fine for viewing on screen, but no use for printing.The files that it produces are just under 6000 pixels on the long side, when scanning 135 negatives. But that drops to around 2500 pixels for 110, which is tiny, and produces a picture which appears smeared, even when blown up to the size of a laptop monitor. I can't comment on colour accuracy, as I have been scanning negatives which date from the 1970s and 1980s, so they have appeared to be fine on some and pretty faded on others. I have to assume that it is accurate to the negative. Again, Photoshop does a decent job of upscaling the images and correcting the colours.It is possible to change the exposure to determine how dark or bright the picture is.The scanning process is easy enough in itself. It's simply a matter of selecting the appropriate film size, and adapters are provided to load slides and 135,126 or 110 negatives. Negatives are then fed through manually, pushing each through until a picture displays on the screen. Adjust the exposure if necessary, press the button to capture the picture and slide the negative on to the next frame. It's a fast enough process, though some kind of powered feed would be useful, because if there are only one or two negatives in a strip, they tend to get stuck inside, and the holder needs to be removed from the scanner and the negatives moved on using fingers - gloves are recommended to avoid fingermarks and additional scratches.Overall, I'd say that I have not got my money's worth out of this scanner. If it scanned at 300dpi instead of 72, I would have been happier. If there was an option to change the file format, I would have been happier. If it didn't drop the file size for smaller negatives, I would have been happier. But for me, this scanner does not offer value for money.EDIT: I have now purchased a PlusTek 8300i scanner, and I have discovered that many of my negatives have got a nasty scratch right down the middle, which was not there on the original scans. I can only assume that the scratch has been caused on exit from this scanner.

I have now done a few hundred photos and can comment. It is clunky to operate and not sophisticated but that is not necessarily bad for a lot of users. It could not capture the golden tones of Italian architecture nor certain golden skin tones. Red is the biggest problem, no red or pink clothing will replicate well. For the most part I was just trying to get through bulk and it works because truthfully you are not that attached to a lot of images but where you really want to capture special images it is disappointing if the photo does not come out well. I have spent a lot of time adjusting the colouration and can honestly say that I can't get a real improvement, the only useful feature is the brightness. To sum up, you get use to the limitations and 90% of your photos are very acceptable but the 10% that are special to you may well be a disappointment. I'm not sure that any product on the market is great and I would reluctantly recommend this one

As described, easy to set up and use. results were good.
