KLIM K2 Mobile Film Scanner 35mm - Free APP - New Version - Positive & Negative Converter, Slide & Photo Digitizer, 35mm Color Developing Kit Essential - Top Choice for Preserving Old Photos

This thing works excellent and the software is where the money is I was able to scan photos right to my iPhone I did not use the platform just held the phone for best focus . It is best to use this in a room with minimal light so that the exposure is only using the light in the device. It’s easy to use. I am recovering years of old photos from 35mm negatives super fast and easy, love this thing

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.

It didn't work for my application which was to scan Negatives and Slides using an app that was suggested by the manufacturer. It's a waste of time and money. I have a custom built HP & an ASUS Vivo Book. TO BE FAIR: Each computer has a motherboard which is uniquely programmed to work with many applications. There is no telling where the app for this item originated. This happens with many apps. I found 21 different manufacturers of computers. It would be great if the App creators & manufacturers would share with us which apps will function without difficulty with our computers.Amazon did accept my return of this product.Remember Amazon has a 30-day return. So do not purchase this product until you are ready to use it and test it.

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.

For the crazy, low price, this is a pretty cool device. You can actually sort through and resurrect photos from negatives and slides very easily. The resolution is not very good, but you will result in a clear photo that is shareable via email and social media. Be aware that color settings are all over the place. I suspect that ambient light in the room may leak into the capture which will mess with the final result. Try to keep it out of direct ambient light and take extra care with the photo settings. You'll get some good results.

It’s ok not big on it. U can see the film but to get the right color of the picture is almost impossible. Pictures come out looking vintage. It’s not what I expected so I’m a bit disappointed.
