Is there anyway to scan the old disc negatives with the Veho scanner?

I have never tried the discs. The scanner doesn't have anything that would accommodate them. If you are willing to cut up the discs, you could probably fit the negatives in the tray that is made for 110 negatives, but I don't see any other way to scan them with this scanner.

This equipment does come with a tray for the usage of the old 110mm films - 35mm films and even the slide type of films. But what sort of "old disc negatives" are you referring to? The ones ( 110 mm, 35mm, and slide films) this machine uses are the ones that is still being use today but rarely since all has been using digital with SD cards. I gave this machine to someone else since I can't use it to my laptop and will not operate. It is because my laptop at the time is a refurbished one. But I did check what was inside the box and tried it before I finally gave it to someone esle. Sorry.

Yes, it should work - be aware - there are trays for SLIDES and trays for the old picture strip negatives - different holders for each.

No. There are holders for 35mm slides and negatives, and that is the size of the area scanned.

If it is still scanning correctly, you should not have to re-install anything. You may have to check your settings if the original is light. Try setting to grey scale or darker setting.

Michael, it includes (or did when I got mine) the negative holder for medium format negatives, and the software may auto recognize the frames. In general, you will end up having to use the full driver to acquire the image, but since you were acquiring from a better source to begin with, you would want to use the full driver anyway.Be sure to dust the negative and the scanner before starting, as the dust removal works to some extent, but you want clear images, so take the extra time to clean the hardware and image first.

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).

There are two caddies that come with the scanner. One does normal slides and 35 mm negatives. The other one has an opening that is 2 1/4 x 8 1/2. I think you could do the slides there. I have used it for older over-sized negatives with good results.

I'm looking for a way to scan the negatives too. FilmscanUSA has an adapter that supposedly works. I have tried to scan a 110 negative and it works but because the 35mm slot is too big it is hard to keep the negative in place.

Not that I know about, but if you have a Mac you can use "image capture" to scan. It comes with the OS. Maybe Windows has something similar.

Yes, it is built into the firmware of the scanner. There is no separate software on a disk provided. During setup, you select the Film Type to be scanned - Negatives, Slides (Positives), or B & W. The firmware converts the Negative color images to Positives automatically. I personally have not scanned any Negatives, but I see that other reviewers have done so, with good results. This scanner is completely stand-alone. It does not need a computer to perform its scanning tasks. The stored JPG images can then be transferred to a computer for any further processing as desired.

You are supposed to be able to. I never used it to scan slides but did scan negatives and it worked great.

No. It's just a printer. There used to be a scanner head available, but it's been discontinued.

I tried your suggestion and it seems to work for a single frame. Like the original poster, I have many strips of 126 negatives and would like to scan all four frames at once. Is that possible?

I have not used it for negatives yet, only slides. They slip into a tray that is fed manually through the box. There is no auto advance. I have used other scanners in the past, and I am extremely pleased with this one.

You may have to buy or build an adapter but it can scan negatives. When you preview the scan, make sure the "thumbnail" box is not checked. This will scan the entire negative area and you can select the area to scan manually.

I did scan some very old negatives from the '30s, but it is not easy. Back then, negitives were in all kinds of shapes and sizes. The scanner does just fine, but the software is poor. I did this a few years ago, so as I remember, I used Gimp on a Linux machine. Otherwise, the Epson software expects the negative to fit into one of the included frames. Using this process, it took a few minutes of fiddle with the settings to scan just one negative.

The scanning quality is excellent (max = 600dpi). I have not tried to scan in negatives, but the scanning that i did perform caught sufficient detail i would suspect it would be fine. As for slides, that is a different question, as they are in the cardboard; i don't know if that will mess with the focus (being off the glass). Scanning resolution: Max = 600dpi in Jpeg or Tiff. I will run a negative through the scanner hopefully tonight and will let you know for sure.
