If you are completing a large family project and want the very best results, invest in a more expensive Epson scanner and you will not be disappointed.

You can't expect a $40 device to do the same quality work as an expensive scanner or scanning service.

This is a great film scanner to have at home as it doesn't take up much room as it fully collapses while it works very well

For the price this scanner is great

The scanner is a small device and therefore very portable

Allows making digital copies with Kodak App, Your preferred Camera App, or even with a preferred PDF Scanner App

Great little scanner!

This scanner was extremely difficult to use

Scanner was terrible.

No, but for its purpose and price this is a nice film scanner

it is really nice to have a portable film scanner like this one.

I'd read reviews about more expensive scanners that indicated our cell phones have better cameras

I emphasis mobile because some negative reviews seem to be upset that this is not as good as full real scanner

Although the quality isn't as good as if you used a professional film negative scanner, it's good enough and great bang for your buck.

I was going to buy a big expensive scanner for the task - but photography has changed

if that.<h1>What to buy instead</h1>If you're not a photographer but have a lot of film to digitize (say, old family photos), then any cheap film scanner on the market will provide adequate image quality for you, and will be much more convenient to use than this product

Unless I want to make a big print, there is no need for a fancy and expensive electronic scanner

This scanner is very user friendly and at the same time, it produces such nice scans!

I really love this scanner as it is just so much fun to use

If you have a good smart phone that takes great photos and has good built-in photo editing options, this scanner will work for you if you're scanning slides.

Just didn’t work well as a scanner with not useable results.

This little scanner was super easy to use, and I was able to quickly go thru the whole box

Great to carry on road trips where you can't bring a desk top film scanner.

This scanner was easy to use and just fantastic for the money

I now want to invest in a better quality scanner

If you're happy with the photos taken by your smart phone (and nowadays many smart phones take exceptionally good photos), this scanner will work for you

Your pictures will still need to be edited unless you don't mind poor edges, but this scanner is extremely quick and easy to set up (no tools required!) and will encourage you to look through your slide collection that you probably haven't viewed in decades!

It is a good scanner if everything works.

A good film scanner costs about $1000

First I tried on of the cheap $50 slide scanners that are frequent on Amazon

Great little scanner for the price.

I have a $100 lighted handheld scanner bought on Amazon that is not as good as a high-end flatbed scanner but works much better than this cardboard phone camera holder.

So much happiness has come from this wonderful film scanner

I have a $100 lighted handheld scanner bought on Amazon that is not as good as a high-end flatbed scanner but works much better than this cardboard phone camera holder.

I also didn't want to invest in an expensive dedicated film scanner that I likely wouldn't use again

Do not expect perfect but if you don’t want to buy a expensive scanner that get this because it gets the job

The scanner is compact and easy to use.

I’m not sure the more expensive negative scanners would work better than this because the camera on my phone is such high quality

Very good MOBILE scanner

Good as a scanner, picture quality may have been better on another phone - I have iPhone 7

This negative film scanner works so much better than expected

It works as it says it does

Although the quality isn't as good as if you used a professional film negative scanner, it's good enough and great bang for your buck.
