Selecting a Slide or Negative Scanner

thekristak, July 22, 2024April 30, 2025

I have a personal favorite for scanning slides and negatives. It’s the Kodak Slide N Scan. It’s super easy to use and very affordable.

However with a larger investment, there are a few options that may be worth considering.

These scanners are a little more complicated to use and can be a bit pricey, but they do solve a few other problems.

If you have dusty old slides or negatives, this scanner includes software that will clean up those pesky dust spots.

If you are holding on to thousands of slides or negatives you may need the speed that these options offer. They are specific for slides or negatives though AND a much greater investment, but they both have a batch option that will make the process quicker.
