Customer Review

I bought the scanner due to the many positive reviews at Amazon.com. Meanwhile, I have a trial basis about 100 pictures (only color negatives) scanned. The scanner works like a camera and photographed the image in front of a LED lit frosted glass. Good idea, because in contrast to flatbed scanners is much faster. So take a scan just 2 seconds. I take my first impressions times together:

+ Merciless fast
+ Many functions, no software required generated directly jpgs
+ Much sharper than the scans of my CANON 5600F
+ Can umfehen well with strong corrugated negatives
+ Even illumination
+ German user interface (but English Manual)
+ Practically, the device also to view negatives, because these are displayed as positive.

- Loud annoying keys
- Half-baked operating concept leads to unnecessary many loud keystrokes
- Redundant Power button, but it has other key twice.
- Flip and Mirror buttons are back for before /. This means that you can accidentally before scanning mirror.
- Hakelige introduction of the negative.
- Writes nonsense in the Exifs among other things, "My beautiful picture"

- Crops unfortunately the images on all sides (about 8% in both directions)
- The scan results are extremely noisy
- The display is extremely blickwinkelabhägig and also allows the colors forth no indication of the scan results to. Here one must only times to find out the correct settings for the image with trial and error method. This is time-consuming and eliminates the advantage of high speed part.
- The neutral attitude leads me to absolutely reddish images. With red, blue and green -1 +1, the results were better.
- Geglaste slides can not be inserted because they are too thick to.

A qualitative difference 14-22 Mpix I can not determine.

I have long struggled with whether I should keep the scanner because the sharpness is quite good and one with some also try to color acceptable results comes. Unfortunately, however, leaves the strong noise only partially remove (For me, the
Results with Noiseware and Lightroom insufficient). Zusätzlch found in the scans still plenty of JPG artifacts.

Because the noise is absolutely unacceptable for me, the unit (with a heavy heart) decreases. Who but his holiday memories in 1024 x ... want to see who can buy calmly.
