I am going through slides and negatives, 35mm and Medium format from my dad's past life starting from the 1960s. So it's A LOT. You will need A LOT of time on your hands and a very understanding family if you need to save all these memories that you have probably never ever seen before.I am using a high end spec Alienware notebook from 2015 to do this. I have gone through the trouble to time how long it takes to scan 35mm slides in different settings.4 35mm SlidesScan for Positive4800dpi 48bitColor Correctionw/ ICE: 10min 29secw/ Medium Dust Removal: 5min 44secw/o Dust Removal: 5min 41secThose Kodak slides from way back then will have dust in them if not growing on them. The Epson software dust removal is NOTHING. It's pretty much just like w/o dust removal. It's a worthless setting. Grain Reduction is noticeable but not by much. Color Restoration setting is like magic. Those old slides will have tinted to a magenta color by now, so you'll need that. Digital ICE Technology setting, now that makes a HUGE difference. Those dust specs disappear completely. I recommend this setting if you have the time. 60 slide magazine, 4 slides at a time, will take you 157.5minutes if you were a robot. 2hrs, 37.5min a magazine.I purchased an Amazon Recertified one of these and it works great! If you have an understanding family or a lot of spare time, I recommend this. If you don't then just get one of those $150 toys that you just push a slide in and press a button like a conveyor belt. Or pay someone or a company to scan them in for you.

Since my recently mother died I have been trying to bring sense out of chaos of family documents going back at least 130 years. This is very good and easy to use for slides, photos and postcards. However, it is only okay for documents. I have to put a piece of black cardstock cardboard behind all the back sides of photos with writing on them and do the same for the back side of all postcards if I want to copy them. It would be nice if the panel on the lid had a black side so this was unnecessary,

I used this for digitizing my user manuals which it does perfectlyThen I also use this for archiving my decades of drawingsFor this, I used the max DPI for 8.5x11inch paper. Which it caps out at 2400dpi even when it advertises much more. Apparently, that is only for the film when the image size is tiny that it might let you use those settings. Now the other issue is that thin shading and lines were bleached out, but when I set JUST the brightness to "-50" it made all of that come through clear as day and looking premium. (side note: it will reset this setting every time it closes (meaning I had to rescan a ton when I would forget to set that) but if you name that preset it will save all of your settings). So with those things, I discovered in mind, while it took a while (roughly 15min per page) I love how they came out.Two more issues to contend with:1. The Window's photos app crashes trying to open these images which I want to do to crop out the white space and rotate the landscape images.2. EVERY TIME you click scan a pop-up comes up warning you that the scan will take time at the high DPI setting. Which you cannot click an option to tell it to stop warning you. So after a process that took a week to scan all of my drawings (like non-stop a week), this drove me insane. because it renders the buttons on the scanner useless because you have to go to your computer and click ok on that pop-up. There is no fix for this or any way I could find to get help from Epson. The anger of having walked away and thought it was scanning but I had forgotten to click that little pop-up made that week hell.Overall: great scanner. big but the scan area is actually pretty small. it does have this little level arm thing so it can scan like a canvas not just flat sheets of paper. Thus, the hardware is great but the software looks and feels old and like Epson is doing nothing to modernize it.

The seller( Aplus Service (next day shipping available)) was selling defective products, claiming they were in "Very good condition". When I informed them of this, they didn't any support.The item I received had plastic on the machine itself as if it was brand new, but the outer box was damaged as if it had been used for long years. The machine itself stopped working after a few uses. Worst seller.

Does everything you could ever think of exactly what I was hoping for plus more. Needed to scan old photos and very old slides. Excellent machine easy to set up and easy to use well worth the money. Great company and great customer service! Highly recommend this product with two thumbs up 👍👍

I LOVE this scanner. I always look for what might be out there that is newer but there is little call for new scanner development. But this one does exactly what I need. it is not something meant to travel, so I keep one at places I may be where I need to scan things. My parents' house, other locations, you name it. I've scanned new and old documents, new photos and old photos, film negatives, you name it. It is a workhorse. At this price point, you can't get a better scanner.

I was able to scan a large number of dicuments and photographs very quickly.
