There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Wanted to provide tips for use of this, since I'm happy with my purchase, but it's got some design flaws in the slide tray. Tips for success:
1) ONLY scan 1 slide at a time
2) If slides get stuck on top of each other after you scan slide 1, when scanning slide 2 (slide 2 pushes up on top of the 1st slide and double stacks under the camera) --- You need to take the slide tray apart (6 micro phillips screws) and push down the silver tabs that hold the slide in place for the photo. Big improvement #1!!
3) When advancing a new slide into the scanner, have the scanner tilted at a 45 degree angle with the top edge lifted off the table, and the bottom edge of the scanner lower. The slides may continue to stick as you advance them, but it will be 10% of the problem it was before this. Big improvement #2!!
Thankfully there are only these 2 major improvmeents needed. After doing 120 slides, I evaluated the cost of having costco do this for me, but at .28/slide, I'd be $600-$1000 based on the amount of slides I have from my childhood, so I'm going to spend some time doing this instead.
Hope this helps you!!

There are several flaws with the device and its software that suggest corners were cut in the design and development, enough testing wasn’t done, or the company was trying to produce the cheapest device possible.
Online reviewers have focused most of their criticism on the fact that owners have to provide their own flash memory card. But given how inexpensive these cards are, this is an inconvenience at most.
The following problems are far more important.
1. The scanner has two settings, 5 megapixels (5M) and “interpolated” 10 megapixels (10M; which means, I guess, the slide is scanned twice at 5 MP and the images combined). Generally, the 10M setting works well, but if the image is too complex somehow, the device simply stops working. There’s no error message, no suggestion to reset to 5M and try again, nothing. It just stops and has to be disconnected from the computer it’s attached to. It can’t even be turned off.
2. All slides must be scanned in landscape orientation, no matter how the image was shot. So while the device has an image mirroring/rotation tool, it will not rotate a portrait-oriented image to the correct orientation. And if the user tries to rotate images while viewing them using their computer’s image viewer, they might succeed a few times, but eventually not only will the device lock up, it will lock up their computer as well, forcing them to restart or reboot. Again, there’s no error message, no warning, and nothing in the user manual to warn of this problem. The images can only be rotated to their correct orientation after saving them to another computer.
3. The device comes with three feeders: one that holds a strip of five negatives, one with slots for four slides, and one that holds a stack of roughly 20 slides. This latter one seemed like a good idea—it’s something none of the other scanners I considered had—but it doesn’t work. Slide frames vary in thickness—plastic frames are thicker than paper ones—so the feeder has to be able to accommodate all of them. As a result, paper-framed slides don’t consistently push an already-scanned slide out of the way as the user tries to move the next slide into place. It’s a good idea poorly executed.
4. I had expected I’d be able to save images directly to my computer but I can’t. Users have to save the images to the flash drive, then link the scanner to the computer and copy them, or power off the scanner, remove the card, put it in the appropriate slot on their computer, and copy them that way. While this is more of an inconvenience than a serious problem, a better design would have allowed saving the images directly to a connected computer.
On the positive side, when I’ve contacted DigitNow’s tech support, they’ve been reasonably responsive, getting back to me within 24 hours, and their answers have generally been helpful.
Now that I know how to work around or avoid the problems listed above, I can reliably scan a couple dozen slides in about 15 minutes, and the scan quality certainly meets my needs. It’s easy to see why the scanner made it into other online reviewers’ top-10 lists but it would have gotten even better rankings if it had been better designed and the design better executed.
