I haven't used it for scanning film, but I am sure that it can be used for such purpouse.

I wouldn't know if this is the best as this is all I've tried. It works though.

Agree with BigBadBalrog - it works fine with mounted slides. But, it is a one at a time process. We have mostly used the scanner for 35mm negatives and that works well as long as the film piece is long enough - otherwise you need to insert the negative in a holder (included).

Yes, it comes with that stuff. It's a good scanner. If you've had other scanners you'll see that this one is very easy to use.

thanks for the input .....I had gone ahead and ordered the Scan-Snap but had decided to return it before it even arrived. Your response just made me know that I made the right decision. My plan now is to sort through all those photos and send the best of the lot to a company such as Best Photo Scanning and let them preserve them on discs for me.

It does scan mounted slides beautifully. I just got this scanner yesterday and have been busy scanning years old family slides. All of mine are mounted in cardboard frames. A very slight learning curve to scan slides (or else I had my stupid hat on yesterday) but I'm happy with my results so far.

Yes, it takes a while to scan, but the results are nice. Make sure the glass and the negatives are clean to start. My PIXMA is still working many years later.

I purchased an Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner. It scans slides, pictures and negatives. The scanner takes 4 slides at a time. Worked great. I had about 1500 slides from the 60s. The Kaiser Mini let me sort thru them quickly. Was a great winter project.

Yes, I recommend it. I've had four different scanners. This is by far the best, light, multiple resolution settings, color or b/w. I love this one.

Most of what I scan is printed material, i.e., bills of lading, invoices, etc. I did feed a photo through the scanner and it fed easily and didn't damage the photo. The image is pretty good but I've seen better. That been said, this little Canon scanner has so many features I haven't begun to explore yet. It could just be I don't have the machine set for ultimate photo scanning results. Bottom line for me, it's ok for scanning photos to share online but I don't think I'd use it for reproducing prints. Hope this helps.

I utilise the 120 films frame to scan 126. The film can be clamped at the front and at one side in the frame (holes side). A short adhesive tape fixes the film on the black auxiliary sheet to prevent slipping. In the scanner driver, select "Preview" and "Zoom" and mark the frame to be scanned. Start scanning.

It scans any thing you put in the frame, Mounted or un mounted. only down side is, quality may not be to your acceptance.I think It is well worth the cost. Better quality will cost more $$.

TedIf you go to Adorama.com it does say that it does medium and large format scans. I'm here trying to find a review of how well it scans large format film.

I mainly use this for scanning and I love it. I use the scanning software provided mainly for pdf files. It scans large 50 page documents and I love the fact it scans 2-sided documents with ease.

To Guy J. Clark. Thank you so much for mentioning VueScan! I've tried several other software front-ends with this scanner, and VueScan is definitely the best for this scanner. I also have a Cannon scanner for my usual work, and VueScan is as versatile as the Cannon software. (Using it with Win7)

I have used it to scan in some photos and they turned out well. I think it would depend upon the type whether you wanted to run them through or not, such as old family photos, etc.

Use a printer scanner for slides and 35MM film and you should be able to scan mounted slides. Both of my printer work

yes, but you do have to tell it what kind of film it is i.e. B&W; neg,color neg,color slide,it gives great resolution and color rendition...it also comes with photoshop elements (my unit did )another thing you can scan 2 1/4 film.thats one big pic.I have had this unit for a few years. and it does good work.also, I went to college and majored in photography, so I have some experience in film...
