Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The Kodak Scanza worked to my expectations. I scanned some 1400 slides in a weekend (in front of the TV), most of time admitttedly involved in me manually renaming the slides to preserve date info. Feeding of slides is manual, but quite fast. If you aren't trying to keep things organized, you ccould probably do a slide in about 5 seconds from picking it up, orienting it, feeding it into the guide, and pushing the "scan" button. Relatively few of my ancient slides jammed and all cleared by removeing the slide guide and wiggling the slide a bit. The resolution was reasonably good. A very thin sliver of the original slide image is cut off at the edges (a common problem I gather from reviews of competing devices). Color and contrast depth appear to be auto-adjusted, meaning some slides need to be color-saturation-boosted or contrast-boosted. I was working with 40 to 50 year old slides, and some of this may have been the slides. One quirk is that the unit time-stamps the files starting at midnight June 1, 2017 (reset each time you turn on the unit).
