  • I need to up my 35mm scanning game. Anyone have experience of Plustek, Reflecta/Primefilm or both?

    My ageing Epson V500 needs replacing. I don’t own a digital camera and don’t really want to.

  • I have this Plustek one.
    Given that you get SilverFast SE 8 with it the price is pretty good.
    The scan quality is very nice if you know what you're doing (turn the right knobs in SF, use multi-pass etc.).
    I suggest you make sure the software runs on your operating system - the version I got didn't run on Catalina, and I worked around it by installing Windows 7 via Parallels Desktop; this worked fine.. but in the end I couldn't be arsed to scan myself anymore.

    So long sory short make shure you really want / need to scan yourself, personally I do prefer to spend a few bucks to have it done for me at the lab with a Frontier that gives even better results of course, and have them send me the files via WeTransfer a couple hours later.
    It's totally worth the money, YMMV of course.

  • I can sell you a Minolta cheap
