Review on πŸ–₯️ FS71 Magnasonic Scanner Display Conversion by Robert Gilbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Useful for cataloging slides but with limited detail

Magnasonic All-in - A single 22- Megapixel film scanner is useful for quickly scanning 35mm slides, creating a catalog, or viewing on screen, but it's not enough if you want to make prints larger than 20 x 25 cm (8 x 10 in ) are. Part of the problem is resolution: a Kodachrome slide can hold the equivalent of 50MB of information, but this device captures 14 megapixels, interpolated to 22 megapixels. It also seems that the color depth is limited. Pros: Easy to use and set up, fast throughput, easy to adjust brightness, easy to remove dust from the light source. Cons: Limited resolution, clouds and other washed out highlights that are obviously yellow, limited color depth. Tip: Cut manila folders into strips according to the media width (e.g. 5 cm for 35mm slides), write a description of the slide series and take a picture in front of each box.

Pros
  • FAST AND EASY SCANNING - Easy setup for hassle-free operation, allowing you to scan photos in less than 5 seconds with the included quick-load film trays
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide
