This 7200 dpi resolution scanner is designed with state of the art illumination and optical systems. Plustek OpticFilm 8100 is a dedicated 35mm film and slide scanner that scans color negative film, black and white negative film, slides, reversal film and Kodakchrome film. Plustek has manufactured dedicated film scanners for over 20 year and we understand film photography image quality and scanning requirements. It doesn’t matter if you have old slides to convert into digital format, or you are still shooting film today, the OpticFilm 8100 scanner is a dedicated film scanner that is up to both tasks. would recommend it to anyone willing to take the time to learn how to use it. Actually, I enjoy reliving some nice memories while seeing those old slides on my monitor. No big deal though, I look at the PC screen and it tells me.
Also, I'd like to see a blinking light on the unit that tells me when it's scanning, or even a buzzer when done. I like the product and it does a good job for me.Ĭons: Plustek should include at least one additional slide holder, but I'll buy a set of two at the next opportunity to preload them. No, I don't have any affiliation with Plustek or it's reseller. If you see one that's unacceptable, it doesn't take long to rescan it. The occasional dust that remains and shows up is no worse than when I used a projector and screen.
I use an antistatic cloth (or camel hair brush) and Dust-Off compressed air, after I clip the slides into the holder. Just make sure to eliminate as much dust as possible ahead of scanning. The time it takes, after I push the QuickScan button and the finished image appears on my PC monitor is exactly 38 seconds, not bad as far as I'm concerned! And the image looks great, even after I burn it to DVD and show it on my 42" flat screen TV. Like I said, I only use it for to scan slides. Give it enough time to get comfortable with the system. You will have to check the results and adjust to your own preference.ĭon't get discouraged by negative reviews/comments, such as "difficult software", "slow scanning", etc. My basic settings in the Quickscan Menu are 1200 BPI, 24-Bit Color, show.
I have hundreds, they have been well selected from the start, no junk or badly exposed, and kept either in projector trays or in plastic slide covers.Īfter a day of testing various settings with both the IntelliScan setting using SilverFast 8, and the QuickScan, I settled on the latter. I use the product exclusively to digitize color slides that date back to 1968. Excellent product, well built, great output quality!
