Slide & Negative Scanners

(11 Items)

Film scanners are designed to handle the unique requirements of film, which are much smaller and more detailed than printed photos. These function by digitising film slides and negatives and transferring them to a digital device to be edited, stored, and shared. 

Our slide scanners are designed to make this process much easier and more efficient. With a range of options to choose from, including flatbed and A4 scanners, you can rely on your device to get the job done. 

Whether you’re a professional photographer or hobbyist, negative scanners are designed to accommodate different sizes and formats of film and slides, such as 35mm, medium and larger formats.

They are calibrated to handle a wide range of colours and densities for accurate scanning and high-quality digitals. Unlike typical flatbed scanners, film slide scanners have a built-in light source that shines through the film to accurately capture the image.

Many flatbed scanners can scan film and negatives, but some are more able than others. When scanning film negatives, you must look for a film slide scanner or flatbed scanner with a high resolution of above 2400 dpi x 4800 dpi.

The Plustek OpticFilm 8100 or Plustek OpticFilm 8200i SE 35mm film scanners and are a perfect fit for professional photographers looking to scan only their negative film slides. With the Epson Scanner Perfection V range, it is possible to scan larger film slides with differing holders that can be purchased additionally.

Many of our slide scanners come with features for colour correction, dust and scratch removal, and digital ICE technology (Image Correction and Enhancement) to improve the quality of the scanned images.

With higher resolution and feeder capabilities, the scanning process is quick and easy, saving you time and increasing productivity. Browse our film slide scanners below for high-functioning scanners at great costs.

Photograph Scanners

We get asked all the time, "what is the best scanner for scanning my photos?". In truth, all scanners with a resolution of 600dpi will be able to scan standard 6x4" photographs.

If you have time to scan each photograph individually and want to pick up the highest detail, a flatbed scanner would better suit your needs.

On the other hand, if you have boxes of photographs and need them scanning quickly, and ADF scanner (auto-document feed) will be better suited to you. This type of sheet fed scanner will not damage your photographs if they are relatively new, but if the photos are delicate then maybe you should also consider a flatbed.

Kodak Alaris scanners are great for scanning photographs, as they are bundled with a piece of software called Perfect Page. This is an image enhancement tool, which auto-enhances the scanned image to its best possible result before being displayed onscreen. Additionally, Epson Workforce scanners offer very good image capture, with high resolutions of 1200dpi through their provided software package called Document Capture Pro
