KLIMK2 Mobile Photo Digitizer 35mm - Positive & Negative Conversion - Slide and Photo Scanner - Color Developing Kit Essential - Your Own Service for Developing Negatives at Home

For the crazy, low price, this is a pretty cool device. You can actually sort through and resurrect photos from negatives and slides very easily. The resolution is not very good, but you will result in a clear photo that is shareable via email and social media. Be aware that color settings are all over the place. I suspect that ambient light in the room may leak into the capture which will mess with the final result. Try to keep it out of direct ambient light and take extra care with the photo settings. You'll get some good results.

Worked!!We used to transfer slides from the Viet Nam era to pictures prints!!

It didn't work for my application which was to scan Negatives and Slides using an app that was suggested by the manufacturer. It's a waste of time and money. I have a custom built HP & an ASUS Vivo Book. TO BE FAIR: Each computer has a motherboard which is uniquely programmed to work with many applications. There is no telling where the app for this item originated. This happens with many apps. I found 21 different manufacturers of computers. It would be great if the App creators & manufacturers would share with us which apps will function without difficulty with our computers.Amazon did accept my return of this product.Remember Amazon has a 30-day return. So do not purchase this product until you are ready to use it and test it.

This is great little display box for 35mm film negatives. Taking pictures with my iPhone – not so much. Their iOS app is ok – at least it is free, unlike their competition that charges a monthly subscription fee (!?). It's a little quirky, but it does the job.My biggest complaint is that you can't fill the field of view. I tried both iPhones 13 Pro and 16 Pro, and only the ultra-wide camera (0.5X) would focus on the film, not the normal (1X). The software crops the image, but then you're left with a snapshot with only 500 or 600 pixels on a side – not good. Switching out the vertical supports for the included shorter ones does help a bit, since then the camera is closer and fills more of the frame, but still not great.In the end, I ended up just using my dSLR with a macro zoom lens and extension tube mounted on small tripod to re-photograph the negative. With an extremely shallow depth-of-field, it takes a couple tries to get the film negative properly in focus. I still can't fill the frame, but at least it's high enough resolution with cropping to see the film grain. It's a little tedious working with negatives, focus, shoot. But without a doubt, it's far better than just scanning a three-decade old print. I can pull out much dynamic range from the negative, and I can use modern software to clean up and adjust the picture more than I ever could before.For the price, and relatively few cherry-picked photos that I want to digitize, it's definitely worth it.

This works well and it is easy to use. I was pleasantly surprised because I've tried other slide scanners, and they never perform quite as you want them to. This one worked great and it is easy to store.

It’s ok not big on it. U can see the film but to get the right color of the picture is almost impossible. Pictures come out looking vintage. It’s not what I expected so I’m a bit disappointed.

In the product's description, the product's LED light's color is described as "white". Well... the LED's light might appear white to the naked eye, but it's not.The LED light emits a strong blue hue that appears throughout all photographed 35 mm color slides, rendering the "scanned" (There is no true scanning.) image of the slides useless.I've included two photos. Both photos were snapped with the same smart phone (iPhone 14 Plus). The first photo was taken using direct, natural outdoor light to illuminate the slide and no color adjustemts were made. The second photo is a "scanned" photo, without any color adjustments having been made.The first photo appears to be identical in color to the photographed slide, but the second photo... not so much.The strong blue hue appeared in every "scan" that I made, which included sunny outdoor shots and well-light indoor shots. Every single one had a strong blue, throughout the entire image.If it weren't for the blue hue, this product would be a good little product. If you don't mind a strong blue hue throughout your "sacanned" images, then it's an OK little product.I didn't try the product's app and probably wouldn't had downloaded it, even if the product were usable.The product was returned.

I ordered this scanner for a second shot at my pre-digital 35mm negatives. The scanner is plastic but sturdy, is easy to assemble (2 AA batteries included), and is easy to use. Negatives slide between gates over the light source, and your cell phone overhangs a shelf with camera lens exposed. My cell phone focused automatically (without macro) and I used the cell phone zoom function to fit the negative image to the cell phone screen. Once set up, scanning successive negative images is a "slide and shoot" fast function.It's not a scanning function, but photo editing improves the end results. I used (not included but affordable) Corel PaintShop Pro desktop PC software for cropping, conversion to positive, correcting old film color shift, and photo enhancement. The two attached photos are (nominally 1900 pixel by 2800 pixel) scans of 35 year old color negatives. The edited scans print well.
