It works as well as with color negatives. What is really important is the negative condition, if is too old or has scratches

This printer is provided specifically with tools which allow easy scanning of 35MM slides and film. No tooling is provided for other sizes. Although I supposeyou could rig up something. I mean if it can handle 35mm slides, then somehow it should be able to handle 4x5 negatives. Sorry for not having a more definitive answer for you.

Only if you remove them from their mounts and place then 1 at a time in the slot meant for a strip of film. The device is meant for strips of negatives (BW or color).

Incredible to say the least. I found some of my parents' b&w; negatives from the 1940s and was able to make pictures that surpassed the originals they had in their albums. Just take your time and try the various settings for optimum results.

I think the scanner does a great job with 35 mm slides or negatives. It has a slide holder for 4 slides at a time.

I used it for many 35mm color slides and negatives, and got OK results. If you have a Windows machine you can use the software that accompanies the scanner to get better results. I chose this one because it is also a good flatbed scanner.

Well it depends what type of film you using. I brought the camera to use it only with black and white film but I would assume it works with any type of film but I know that the processing with the chemicals is different in the dark room. So just be aware of that

No, it only works with slides or negatives. Not sure about the size of 120 film negatives. If they are bigger than a 35mm slide they probably won't fit.

You will use any developer solution intended for black and white negative film, if you don't want to develop the film yourself, a professional lab can take care of it.It is not c41, so do not submit this film to lab that only processes color negative.

My black and white negatives were pretty big when converted. I used Windows photo manager (edit button gives you several options for improving your pictures) to compress the file size. Worked great for me!

I have only used this product with 35 mm slides. I doubt that it would work with negatives since the negatives are not mounted as slides are.

Honestly, I have trouble using the negative attachment. It's for slides and "standard" negatives (35mm). If you have a large format negative, you might have to lay the negative on the glass, then lay a sheet of white paper (not too much texture!) on top of the negative, and provide a light above it. That's "backlighting" and it works fairly well. Good luck!

I have only used it for 35mm slides so far, don't think it would work for negative since the slot is set to accept slides. I don't think I have any I can try.

Yes it does. I haven't used it for that yet, but it works very well for 35mm slides. It also works for 35mm negatives.

It does negative film but not sure how 12mm would work. It does 35mm negative film.

Pana-Vue remote scanner will scan 35mm negatives & transparencies. With proper add-ons will copy 126 negatives and 110 negatives. It will not accept anything larger. So-3" pieces of film are definitely not going to work. I wish they would. I have some old black & white large format negatives that I cannot copy.

I think it's just maybe compatability with the camera type?I email/messaged Impossible Project about it. They said it was definitely the film's fault, not the camera's... But I don't think there's a whole lot that can be done to change it. They're old cameras and an old process, basically it's just not compatible. But the color film worked wonderfully. So, I'd say just use color film and steer clear of B&W;, even though that's kind of a bummer.
