The scanner includes holders for framed 35mm slides with a thickness of up to 3.2 mm.

How is the scanner powered?

The scanner is powered by an external AC adapter providing 5V/1A, which is included with the product.

Can I transfer scanned images to my computer?

Troubleshooting

Scanner does not power on

Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the scanner and a working power outlet. Verify the power adapter is the correct one (5V/1A).

SD card not recognized

Make sure the SD card is properly inserted into the slot. Format the SD card using a computer (FAT32 recommended) and try again. Ensure the card is within the supported capacity (up to 128GB).

Images are blurry or have spots

Clean the scanner's optical path and the film holder gently with compressed air or a soft brush to remove any dust or debris. Ensure the slide or negative is correctly seated in the holder and flat.

Scans appear too dark or too light

Use the scanner's manual exposure adjustment feature to correct the brightness before scanning. Experiment with different settings to find the optimal level for your specific media.

Color cast on scanned images

Utilize the scanner's manual color correction settings to adjust the color balance. If a strong color cast persists, consider post-processing on a computer.
