Review on Wolverine Data Slide Trays Set by Matthew Baltimore

Revainrating 5 out of 5

After some reviews I was worried but honestly this is the best ever for slides.

Read all reviews before buying. I really wanted to get the best quality product. So far I have created over 200 slides. I have yet to "handle" them in iPhoto, but this works amazingly well. I would recommend buying additional (longer holds more) slide adapters, but the one that comes with it is useful too. Some slides are too thick, warped, anything that doesn't match the longer ones, but the included slide will work on any slide. Also, longer adapters that fit 4 slides at a time (I think they came in a set of 3) sometimes cut off part of the slide. So some portrait (top and bottom) and landscape (side to side) slides need to be fed through the same adapter on the side, and then you need to rotate them in iPhoto so they don't cut off the top. I've started playing with the Super8 adapter, it works, but I won't lie that it will take a while. I take a screenshot every 16 frames. I've made about 8-12 inch film so far. Patience is what I would recommend for this. I'm thinking about buying an old Super8 projector and shooting it off the wall with my iPhone, we'll see. I will say I did this with some slides before buying this (I used my slide projector and looked through the images on some rag paper I have, and recorded it with my iPhone), much better quality with Wolverine. It's not that the iPhone did a great job, but that the old projector just couldn't handle it. Insufficient resolution for printing. That's what Wolverine does. Buy it, you will like it
