Product Review (submitted on December 27, 2020):
I really want to like this photo scanner as it is easy to use and quick. The results are not worth the effort though and I can't recommend this for scanning color negatives.The scanner is easy enough to use. Just stick in an SD card and find the right slide holder for your film or negatives. Then it's just a matter of positioning the negative and pressing scan.The problem is the resulting photo. I compared a 35 mm negative scanned with this Magnasonic to the same 35 mm negative scanned on my 2009 model Epson V600 flatbed set at 2400 dpi. There's about twice as much detail in the Epson as in the Magnasonic. The colors are very yellow on the Magnasonic where they come out just about natural on the Epson. If you plan to scan a lot of photos you don't want to have to retouch every one of them in post.I like the idea but the image quality is just terrible.
