Magnasonic All-In-One 24MP Film Scanner with Large 5" Display & HDMI, Converts 35mm/126/110/Super 8 Film & 135/126/110 Slides into Digital Photos, Built-in Memory (FS71)

This is an excellent product, easy to set up and use, with great results. I had previously tried scanning old slides with an Ion “slides forever” device, but the quality was terrible because of low resolution. This Magnasonic is more expensive but there’s no contest when it comes to quality. The resulting images are clear and bright. You have to feed slides manually but it’s quick and easy - each slide pushes the previous one out the other side. Exposure or colour can be adjusted when (rarely) needed, though not in detail. The device has a very small internal memory so it’s advisable to buy some standard SD cards for bulk processing. Important note: it will only work with lower capacity cards - 2GB recommended (which will hold a few hundred images). Files can be transferred to computer via card reader or direct from the device. No software needed.

This thus far works well. Processed about 200 35 mm slides over 2 or Captures to memory or SD card quite fast so productivity is down to your hands and fingers and degree of dexterity.As stated by others it is a little plasticky but aren’t many things. Handles a variety of slides and film negatives and also via HDMI will display on TV screen. NOTE. Sit in a good light and read the manual before starting,it doesn’t take long.Nothing complex but the USB cable is the “power cable” it does not charge a battery.I had the non existent battery charging overnight and was very disappointed when the machine would not switch on after I removed the USB lead. Seems rxpensive for what it is but it’s not a crowded market, it’s very convenient and cheaper than the a similar alternative. In my case I can now use the 34=year old slides images with modern equipment and reclaim quite a bit of storage room. Result a happy wife at least for now.

I bought this to look through some old slides that I found at my mum's house whilst clearing it out. I wanted an easy way to view a large bag of slides from the 1960s - 1980's. This is so easy to use. You put the slide in the adapter provided, and then manually push the slide through the viewer with the next slide. It's easy to change the colour and brightness if you need to. Then just 1 press will capture the image onto the SD Card for you. It's only a few seconds per scan, and they are good quality. The picture above is from 1972, I did not edit any colour balance. I think the Magnasonic has produced a brilliant image. It is cheaper than other viewers out there, but it is certainly not lacking in quality. Again, as others have said, if your source image is faded or poor, then you won't get a brilliant scan, but otherwise I have absolutely no issues with it.

Almost great but this scanner has major shortcomings. There is no auto colour balance. There is a manual adjustment but this is tedious and there is no way to pick a white balance point. You have to estimate by eye from what’s on screen. The scanner only produces 24bpp jpg files, limiting ability for post processing. It doesn’t function as a windows scanner so there is no option to acquire uncompressed image data direct into a photo application. Another lack is that there is no way to rotate the image. There are option to flip or mirror but not rotate. You must transfer files to a PC and use a photo application to rotate any photos shot on portrait as they will all be on t sides.

I found this machine easy to use, and it helped to digitize my slide collection. It works with 35mm film in negative form, and 110mm film Super 8 movie film.

Converted transparencies/slides over 60 years old into jpegs. Pretty easy to operate and able to adjust brightness and colour balance, viewing the slide on the screen. Once image is saved to USB - not included and required for the unit to function - the images can be transferred to a computer and further enhanced using an edit function. Also converted stills from a 16mm film from some 70 years ago. Not such good quality but more down to the original technology. Yet to try negatives. A very good piece of kit for the amateur and cheaper than sending them off to a company to do. Not very time consuming and actually fun to go through 30 years of family history.

Well made great results.

Just purchased this, very easy to set up. I have hundreds of slides that belonged to my parents and I wanted to transfer them to digital without paying a fortune. Omg I love this little scanner so much, just done 250 slides in a couple of hours, wonderful memories, some not seen for 40 odd years and now they are on my computer to print or just view forever. Excellant buy

Fácil de usar. Boas conexões. Ótimo passatempo para escolher as fotos antigas.

高解像度は期待しない事〰️✨ あくまでも大量のフィルムから必要なモノをチョイスし軽い気持ちで電子化する用と考える❗

Appareil parfait. Facile d'utilisation, et les fonctionnalités sont parfaites. Les photos sont nettes, les couleurs sont quasiment réelles, et les retouches très efficaces. Pour ma part je recommande ce numériseur.

Very good item, highly recommended.

It's easy to use and good quality
