I bought the adapter to small image to photograph negatives. Decisive seemed the low price compared to a suitable KB scanner. This product uses is the Slide Duplicator 6506th The filmstrip holder is made of plastic and a metal rod as a hinge. Inserting the film strip requires a little skill, since the filmstrip to bend easily, and thus of the guide grooves of the Holder to pop out. After the collapse of the holder, the images must be again aligned to the windows. The retaining mechanism consists of a simple Kunstoffnase which is inferior to a noticeable wear. Then when placed in the duplicator greater caution is therefore offered the film does not fall out. Although the picture sharpness for these low-budged solution (against semiprofessional KB scanners) is very good, the problem is to remove the orange mask of KB negative. Here I could not satisfactorily optimize the process. In addition, vignetting are considered. I have therefore exposes the negative quite small centered. Whereby the camera, due to the resulting black border, can not exploit their full pixel resolution, based on the floor space. Commercial software I have not used for correction. The free tools provided no satisfactory results. The Organgemaskenkorrektur using the custom white balance of the camera CANON 60D provided the best results, but is not anywhere near the quality of a scan service.
An advantage is the quick scan time, the high resolution and sharpness in contrast to equally-priced KB scanner. Disadvantage is the resulting color cast.
