Customer Reviews

Good scanner, but software a little flakey....
This is a very good middle-range film scanner. The quality of the scans are top-notch, and the accompanying software is full-featured for its purpose. Build quality seem solid, and the unit is small an unobtrusive on my desk.

The software do crash on rare occasions, but it is not a serious problem.

Scan speed is fine, and the highest resolution is so detailed you can see the individual film grains clearly (ie. it is actually too good for practical use).

The only thing I really miss is an adaptor for some of the old compact camera film formats (110, 120), and the old larger film formats (126, 127) since I have a goodly stash of those.

Simple and complicated!
I've only just started using this unit, which was nice and simple to set up, although I foolishly didn't realise that it is not self-loading. You therefore have to feed your slides or neg strips in one frame at a time. Others I've used will self feed and do four or five frames at a time without you needing to be present.

The software is good, but lacks a good or useful help file. I had to search the web to find a document that explained what the settings and options really were and how to use them in laymans terms. The supplied pdf operating manual is split into various different files, and seems to contain random chapters rather than the complete book. The file names are also somewhat spurious so you don't know which of the 10 or so pdf files contains the info you actually need. Frustrating. There are lots of technical settings which I do not understand yet, but it does produce good scans with the options set to auto.

Plustek Opticfilm 7500i Ai 35mm film scanner
I've not had the time to thoroughly use this yet but the test scan results have been more than satisfactory.
