Review on Plustek OpticFilm 8200i SE scanner black by Mateusz Grabowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

I have been using it 1-2 times a month at work for more than two years. Histological slides are placed in the film frame (the manufacturer has a model specifically for histology, but it is not supplied to us). The resulting quality of overview images is higher than with a cheap 5Mpx USB camera and a stereo microscope (the cost of this kit is more than 100). For lack of a better option, it is an acceptable and very budgetary option for obtaining overview images of histological preparations.

Pros
  • The quality is incomparably higher than that of tablets with the ability to scan film. Works.
Cons
  • Silver Fast included in my opinion is an overly cumbersome program, there is a quick scan mode at the touch of a button, but it, in turn, is too simplified.
