Customer Reviews of Pacific Image Electronics PF3650U Scanner, Primefilm 35MM
PrimeFilm 3650u I love my new scanner. It's just what I wanted. Quick and easy. Photo's come out clear with the new digital ICE technology. Any more and it would be professional.
Difficult and not so great results
We purchased the scanner with expectations of converting our old slides. The scanner was difficult to start up, even following the directions did not work and we had to improvise, but we started the process an hr1 1/2 later. The software it came with is not user friendly. It is difficult to get the results you want. We tried scanning several ways and about 1 out of three slides would have a black line through them. The scanner also has a flaw that it has an open window where dust falls into and the dust comes through on the slides. I had to use a cotton swab to clean it several times throughout the scanning. The scanning time is also about 5-7 minutes for one slide, on it's highest resolution, which is really the only somewhat acceptable picture. After trying several hundred scans I am taking it back. My husband and I are both tech savy and this scanner is just a frustration.
Not for anything other than the most popular consumer films
The first step in scanning either film or slides is to select the type of film used. NONE of the films in my library are included on the selection lists. The small print on the last page of the manual also says that it does not scan Kodachrome slides well. About 90% of my film library is Kodachrome 64 slides. It WON'T handle any film with an ASA of less than 100 or any very high speed films (some of mine are 800 and 1600 speed). When I say it won't handle them - technically, it can, but it takes at least an hour to fudge with the settings to get the scan to turn out like the original picture. This one's going back.
