Review on Wolverine F2D8 8 MP 35mm Slides/Negatives Scanner (Old Version): Preserve Your Memories with High-Quality Scans by Robert Elder

Exactly what I wanted. I didn't have unrealistic expectations. I had about 1,000 slides from 25 years ago, mostly Grand Canyon hikes, that I wanted to put on DVD. I never intended to print or blow them up. I just needed a way to watch them as I no longer have a projector and wanted to take the box they came in out of the closet and take them to a landfill. I also bought an 8GB SD card. Mandatory. I sat in front of the TV and did about 100 a night in about half an hour. I didn't set the exposure for each shot, just used the "normal" setting. I didn't pay much attention to the exact centering of the slide (which is why I ended up with some black borders). I would copy to my computer about every few hundred. I will say that Photoshop or something similar is probably needed. I couldn't comment on the quality of my originals as I didn't get a chance to see them, but Photoshop (just an automatic adjustment) had a major impact on many of the images. Others not so much. It depended on the different colors on the slide. Even if you don't spend a lot of time dusting the slides, there are features in the scan results. So I removed some very bad details (they are especially noticeable in the sky shots). Getting rid of them all in Photoshop would be very tedious. In general I am very satisfied. It was pretty quick, very easy and the quality is as good as I need it to be. I watched some via USB on a 47" TV and they looked great. Also, I'm sure I can resell the device when I'm done with it. Several colleagues already want it. Try this with some very old negatives. These results did NOT impress me. The negatives may have been bad. They were slightly warped. I had better results when I took the original (and faded) images to my printer/scanner and put them in there.
