KLIM K2 Mobile Photo Digitizer 35mm - Positive & Negative Conversion - Slide and Photo Scanner - Color Developing Kit Essential - Your Own Service for Developing Negatives at Home

This little gadget is amazing. We found some old sides in an abandoned building and wanted to restore them. They are 1950 images that are turning red and are covered in dirt and mold. I did not even clean this one, just wanted to test it out. See the photos. Absolutely amazing! So easy to use. The app in the instructions is working great on an iphone 12. I then put the image in Photoshop and you can see just some quick adjusting made this slide unbelievable. The 2nd image is from a larger than 35 mm slide so I will scan it in sections and put it together in photoshop (I do wish this had adjustments for larger formats). You can see the phone photo is amazing compared to the slide and this is no correction done to it yet. We are truly blown away and so glad I gave this a chance! Not sure how much better the $100+ slide scanners available on Amazon would be, but on a tight budget and wanting to get this done quick, I have found exactly what I need. Plus better than my flatbed scanner for quality/detail and all you have to do is place a slide on the light square, position your photo, use the app to take the image, then move on a new slide. You could knock out sides very quickly to do batch photos and color correct later. The App does have color correcting features that I am sure would help, but i have not tried them so far because I'm a professional designer with Photoshop and I know how great that can do with images. So not sure I will use that feature in the app. So if you are wondering... get it! So totally worth it for ease, quality output and speed. If you had a stack of slides, you could photograph them all quickly and then go back and take the time to crop and edit.

The scanner itself is made well and fairly easy to work with, but I found software to be useless - not paying monthly subscription. I used 3rd party software. I'm an android fan, using S25 ultra. To "scan" , I installed short extensions, and picked either 12 mp or 50 mp camera setting with zoom between 1.6 to 2.0 I cropped photos with Samsung photo edit than I used 3rd party app to convert negative to positive (RGB curves), than I used Samsung remaster tool. I even "scanned" 24 mm films by sliding double piece of paper with the cut out window inside to imitate 35 mm film. Please do not expect to get super fine quality of the photos, even with super fancy phones final result is limited. But for the price results are good for me. Basically after processing you get 7mp photos for 35mm film and 5mp for 24mm. Overall, I recommend the scanner although software is useless for me.

This product is a waste of money. Unfortunately I bought it and didn’t get a chance to use it until after the return window was closed. It is so bad I would not even feel comfortable selling it online or even at a yard sale because I could not honestly say it works as a scanner or that it gives even a decent result. First, it does not scan - it shines a light through your film negative and you use your phone and their app to create a very low quality photo of the negative. Unless you want to pay for a monthly AI subscription, the quality of the resulting photo is so bad you would never want to print it, or even use it electronically. The colors are off and the quality is just not there. They really should not advertise it as a scanner because it does not scan. Don’t waste your money.

I have looked at various options at a wide range of prices and decided the software was the primary factor for results because my phone takes pictures at 50mp and the scanner-digitizers mostly promise 22mp to 24mp. This little unit does what it is supposed to but could be made better by: 1) Just a little more height: My Samsung Android phone struggles to focus unless I add a sheet of cork for the phone to rest on. My phone camera won't focus at all with the provided shorter stands. 2) The design assumes our little phone lenses are all positioned in the same configuration on our phones. The sheet of cork I mentioned in #1 does also serve to allow my phone to rest flat while it is set back just the smallest fraction of an inch. 3) The recommended software was too hard for me to figure out and the demonstration video is for a previous version; does not look like what I downloaded at all. I looked around and ended up with the (free) Kodak Mobile Film Scanner. It is simple to use and works fine. 4) There is a small gap between the base and the little holders where the negatives run through. Maybe that gap is for slides; I don't have any. I taped down a couple of narrow strips of thin cardboard so the film would run through more snugly and stay at the same height over the little light lens. See the image attached. - The unit is made of sturdy plastic. - Battery life is very good. I have run several dozen pictures so far on the original (provided) batteries. - The light brightness is not adjustable, but has been adequate for my needs. The Kodak app has a way to adjust saturation, contrast, etc. so I don't find I need a brighter backlight. - This works with 35mm only unless you rig up something for smaller film; it won't take anything larger. Overall this little rig was well worth what I paid for it.

I ordered this scanner for a second shot at my pre-digital 35mm negatives. The scanner is plastic but sturdy, is easy to assemble (2 AA batteries included), and is easy to use. Negatives slide between gates over the light source, and your cell phone overhangs a shelf with camera lens exposed. My cell phone focused automatically (without macro) and I used the cell phone zoom function to fit the negative image to the cell phone screen. Once set up, scanning successive negative images is a "slide and shoot" fast function. It's not a scanning function, but photo editing improves the end results. I used (not included but affordable) Corel PaintShop Pro desktop PC software for cropping, conversion to positive, correcting old film color shift, and photo enhancement. The two attached photos are (nominally 1900 pixel by 2800 pixel) scans of 35 year old color negatives. The edited scans print well.

Was exactly what I expected!

Lättanvänd. Det blev bra bilder från dia till iphone

No saca los negativos muy bien. No me gustó como funciona

Voor simpel en snel gebruik ok, maar als je kwaliteit scans wilt is dit niet de go to oplossing. Bij omzetten van negatieven gaat er veer detail verloren, je trekt de foto snel uit elkaar (digitaal). Het werkt maar de kwaliteit laat zeker te wensen over.

Non aspettatevi risultati eclatanti, ma il rapporto qualità prezzo è a mio parere veramente notevole. Se dovessi scannerizzare 1.000 diapositive avrei scelto un altro prodotto, ma per qualche decina di foto questo articolo è ottimo. Consiglio di effettuare la scannerizzare in ambiente poco illuminato, perché la luce circostante può influenzare il buon esito della copia. Ottime le istruzioni e ottima l’applicazione gratuita. Io ho effettuato con ottimi risultati le copie con iPhone 15 plus in modalità macro, oppure utilizzando direttamente il software fornito. Pienamente soddisfatto, consiglio vivamente dato il prezzo bassissimo. Va tra l’altro detto che con scanner dedicati spesso si ottengono risultati inferiori, ma spendendo cifre ben più alte. Ottima anche la confezione, che risulta molto curata e ben studiata; le batterie sono fornite con l’articolo
