I wanted to digitize them for him for a Christmas gift. I checked into services that do this professionally and found them to be out of my price range as I literally have around 700-900 that I want digitized. Next step was to look for a scanner to do it myself. The best (Nikon w/Digital ICE) also out of my price range. So I landed on the Ion Slide2PC. I figured, this would at least get them into 'viewing' quality. At 5megapixels in a decently high res right? I also got a rocket blaster and a static master to clean the slides before hand and cleaned each before starting with a puff of air and a brush of the static master. I put the slide2pc the on it's highest setting and went to work. While they aren't Nikon quality, I must say that I'm impressed with the output. I wish that I could tweak the lighting a little so the under and over exposed would come out a little better but with a little...

Once I got up the learning curve, I could average 70 an hour. You must dust off each slide individually or you will be unhappy because every speck will show. If there was a way to adjust the amount of back light, results would be better but I suspect that will be a feature in the next generation of these things. When the original lighting of the slides was "perfect" the digitized version was excellent, if the slides were light the image all but disappeared and if the slides were dark all you got was a dark blob. Luckily most of my parents' slides were OK and I got some excellent results and was able to make copies for my siblings and create a slide show for my parents on their new computer. At this price point, a great way to save and share family memories. 158 of 161 people found the following review helpful: ![]() By This review is from: Ion 35mm Photo Negative and Slide Converter to PC (SLIDES2PC) (Electronics) It sounded too good to be true. It's hard to find a service that will scan negatives for anything resembling a reasonable rate. Online tutorials I read about scanning negatives all said that decent negative scanners cost hundreds of dollars and were slow to use. So when I got the ION Slides 2 PC scanner, I fully expected it to be yet another piece of cyber junk cluttering up my desk. I was pleasantly surprised, to say the least. It is very easy to install and use. And it takes up very little space. If you are looking for something that is professional quality, go ahead and keep looking. If you want something reasonably priced that can give you access to those slides that you've been really meaning to do something with click "add to cart." You won't regret it. |
