Do you have to switch a setting when changing from scanning 35mm film negatives to slides?

You will need to change the setting as well as the holder going from one to the other but it is very simple to do.

you will have to change the holder for the slides and negatives and appropriate settings

when you scroll though the main menu you will see a setting for color negatives, slides, and B/W negatives. as each one appears it should which one it is.

Looking at the unit, right below the display bar, there is a slide switch on the top left. When the slide switch is all the way to the left, it is OFF. Move the slide switch slightly to the right and it is ON. The slide switch has several settings. The first setting is to see the display only when doing tabulations. Another setting is to PRINT your tabulations. Depends on how you want to use the calculator.

They are very helpful.

When you scan slides or negatives on this scanner, it defaults to certain pre-set sizes that you can select via configuration. It does a good job of recognizing images of pre-set size. For odd sizes where you don't have a preset, you need to turn off the thumbnail function and manually select the images. But this is not hard, and if you're editing in say photoshop, getting the selection accurate is not that important.

Yes. When you load a color or B&W negative into the scanner, you see the image as a positive. During the setup, you must indicate whether you are loading negatives or slides (which are positive images). There is a bit of a learning curve to using the scanner - but nothing too terribly confusing. The instructions that come with it will walk you through.

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.

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.

I think you can get extra negative holders by ordering them. My converter came with 5. My holders accommodate 35 mm slides only. You may have to order a larger model for your large or medium format conversion.

I know the mp980 has film guide for scanning negatives and slides. I believe it backlights them also (but I don't have it to know for sure).

Yes. It can scan slides (positives) and film negatives, but you need different holders for each. I recommend that you buy a couple of extra holders (slide or strip) if you have much to do.

Normally when you send your film off to be developed, the processor will place the slides in cardboard mounts. In addition, they generally return the developed film negatives in film strips. You load the slides in the cardboard mounts in the slide trays to digitize, and if you wish to also digitize the negatives, you would use the tray that is designed to hold the negative film strips. When I purchased the Wolverine F2D14 14 MP 35mm unit, it came with 4 trays that would hold slides and one tray that I could use with the negative film strips.

Does this scan medium format negatives and transparencies (slides) or is it a fixed width film holder that just does 35mm?

Yes, but like I said previously it does a much better job with negatives than slides. Slides come out so so and need some adjusting with Photoshop.

I haven't tried to scan any negatives yet - still working on slides. I'm sure that it will scan any negative though since it scans what it sees whether it is color or black & white.

Yes, you can view the slides easily, no problem. I did not find my 35mm negatives until recently and did not think to view them. I am not sure if it would be possible. My negatives are in one long strip and I think I could view them. Ginnie W

You load the slides or negatives and manually push the carrier through. Each image you want to save requires a push of the Save button on top. Works well.

A slight correction to the statement that the software doesn't allow for the 110 format. You are correct that the automatic slide/negative detection only works for certain sizes, but if you turn off the preview mode, button top left when in the advanced scanning tab, you will get the raw strip from the scanner. Using the dashed line box, you have to manually draw the box around the slide/negative you want to capture. It will capture as many as you draw boxes for. Painful, yes, but it does work.The likelihood of an SDK would seem remote, as this is a driver you would be hacking, but an expanded set of formats would certainly be more attractive than the current hand drawing method.
