Titan 8-in-1 High Resolution 35mm, 127, 126, 110 and APS Film to Digital Converter with 4.3" Screen and HDMI Output

easy to use to convert family negatives and slides to digital

Update; I have now scanned over 4000 35mm slides, and for my purposes this has worked great. Perfect no, but I think it will be what most people could use. Easy setup, easy to use. My slides date from 50 years ago to 20 years ago. While the white balance can be of on some with high contrast in like clouds and such, it is usually and easy fix on a Macs preview page. Make sure you dust your slides well. I have included another photo I scanned with no clean up done. It will be the one of logs on a stone foundation. thanks for reading. I have only had this scanner now for about two hours and have scanned over 330 slides. Scanning slides was the only reason I was looking for film to digital scanner. All my slides date from the mid 70's to late 80's. Most are outdoor scenes or family photos. Lots of barns, cabins, dogs and such. I would highly recommend this scanner if you are looking of something to save family memories from your parents or grand-parents slides. I read many reviews before buying this scanner, and even purchased a higher end one, which I returned because it was overly complicated for what I needed it for and the software kept crashing. The Wolverine took about 2 mins. to set up and within another min. I was scanning slides. I first scanned just a couple then moved the card to my computer to see how they turned out. I was very happy with the results so continued to scan the 300 plus I did tonight. I does on occasion not get the color correct, and correcting the color on the scanner is not productive. Save that for your computer. For me I would say I will not touch up scans on over 90% of what I scanned. If you are needing the scans for publication or very large prints you my need something better. However, if you keep your slides organized after scanning, if you ever want to have one blown up you can then send it out. Like I said if you are looking for an easy, quick and I think good way to save family memories, this is a great slide scanner. I will include a couple photos so you can judge for your self. These are from the late 70's - early 80's.

I read reviews on just about every slide and film scanner available before landing on this one. I have to admit that even though I've been shooting slide film since the late sixties and I also needed to scan my fathers slides, I really only had about 450-500 slides to scan. So while I usually do buy quite expensive photo gear, I decided to try an economy unit, after all if you don't spend a lot on one and the results aren't great, well then what have you to complain about? However this little Wolverine scanner works great! And the complaints about slow scanning are false. I got a routine down right away and for all the slides I had to scan I spent only a couple of hours one afternoon. In other words I was done in no time. The picture quality is fantastic! This little scanner corrected for incorrect white balance without me making any adjustments at all. When I was 15 years old I was developing Kodak Ektachrome film using the Kodak E4 processing kit. One day while bringing one of the developers to temp. I broke the bottle of developer in the pot of water on a hot plate as was my method. In a crazy quick decision I reached for a bottle of Kodak D-76 B&W developer. The result was all the shots on that roll of film were very blue. When I scanned these slides with the Wolverine scanner they all came out color corrected! I just couldn't be happier with this little unit and recommend it to anyone looking for one to purchase. The sample photo was taken in 1956.

This is for sure easy to use. However, it scans so dark and pixelated that the pictures are unusable. If you blow up the photo on the left, you can't see faces. But using my computer to read the slide, the faces are clear. I had hoped for something easier than using my computer and this scanner, while very easy to use, doesn't give me a usable end product.

Very Good Product. Does what is says it will do. Love it. Very easy to actually use. So far I have had no issues. BUT the only thing I didn't understand is that for any 8mm FILM....you can ONLY TAKE SNAP SHOTS of the Film and are NOT able to copy it from the film directly onto your PC or the card that this unit can use. So I will need another machine (they make one) for the film copying I want to do. But for the slides and negatives and for shots of a film this is THE Product! I would highly recommend this product and this Seller.

Found that some of the picture gets cut off, but can not tell you if this happened on the originals as well. Just recently found that I could take a negative that is 135 and make another scan of the same photo with the 110 option and it is like enlarging the photo. This has worked great for a number of negatives where I had family members in a scenice photo and wanted to see the same shot of just the people. Unfortunately it only enlarges the center, but I can move the negative left or right at least. I was unable to do my slides, 110 negatives and 35mm negatives so far. Have not tried my 8mm, but looking forward to it. I have done over 10,000 slides and negatives. I used Seattle Film Works film, which was returned as slides. These slides did great on the color. Found the screen nice and large. I would like it larger, but I am getting older. Would suggest this item to anyone who has the older negatives and slides.

There are a large number of of Slide/Negative scanners out there. But, unless you're willing to spent a few hundred to a few thousand dollars on a premier system, this will do an adequate job. I have a good flat bed scanner with high resolution capability, but I also have several hundred slides and negatives and didn't want to spend days or weeks digitizing them. I got mine for just under $115.00 on Amazon Smile. It didn't come with an SD card, which was fine as I had plenty already, and this contributed to the lower price. All of the carriers were included, you do not need extras. And included was a brush that you will need to periodically wipe the unit with. I liked the ability to adjust color and intensity, to flip or invert an image at will. And connecting it to a large screen TV with an HDMI cable (not included) gives a very good preview prior to the scan. I'm disappointed that the device crops the edges, I'd have favored a black band around a compete image to losing a portion. Also, there is a bit of play in the carriers that can allow the image to not be perfectly perpendicular. I noticed this to the greatest degree when using negatives from a panoramic camera. It does do old 110 negatives, although they're too short to feed completely through and I had to pull the carrier and position the negative for each photo. 35mm negatives may catch as the negatives tend to curl, but most fed through just fine, The system claims 20 megapixels, this is generally a meaningless term as the optic sensor determines the output quality. I feared this might produce extremely large files, but the result averaged about 5MB. I was surprised at how degraded some of my slides/negatives had become. If you're trying to make a decision to buy I wouldn't put if off, even if you select a different model. Time is not your friend.

This model accepts many formats of slides. I had 35mm slides and bought a different digitizer, and then I found some "127" slides so bought this one to digitize those. Having two lets me compare pros and cons. There are a lot of adjustments you can make in exposure and color on this one, but they are on a separate screen so you cannot make adjustments and immediately see the difference before and after the adjustment, and you have to scroll through ALL the adjustments to exit the adjustment screen. I like to make an adjustment and see its effect immediately on the screen and decide if it's better or worse. You just can't do it with this model. This is really the only negative with the Wolverine. The slide feeder is pretty good. You don't have to remove the holder to insert more slides, just feed another one into the right side and it pushes everything forward, pushing a previously-inserted slide out the left side. Once you get the hang of it you can scan a stack of slides pretty quickly.
