User questions & answers

Question:	What is the tv jack for? the manual said it is a phone jack, but none of tv has a phone plug
Answer:	While it's true that camera "film" can't be exposed to light, DEVELOPED film becomes a "negative", which CAN be exposed to light. So far, I've converted about 200 35 mm slides to digital photos without any problems. I haven't tried using negatives yet, but I'm sure the result will be the same. It's a fantastic little machine.
Question:	Can this scan 120 film
Answer:	With a Mac, you have to save images to an SD card or the device's built-in memory (only 128 MB). Then you choose USB Upload and you can transfer the images to your computer.
Question:	Are the Reels for 8mm film scanning included or are they an extra cost? None are shown in the advertisement
Answer:	I'm not sure about that as I have only produced a digital image from a negative.
Question:	Does this connect to the computer to save the photos onto hard drive or do you need the SD card
Answer:	Not being an expert on the computer, I am not sure what "ntsc" means, but I do NOT use an sd card with my Kodak Scanner. I have the scanner plugged directly into my laptop, and the digital images go straight to the E drive, from where I easily put them into folders under My Pictures. So far I have done about 1,100 slides, and I am so very happy with the quality of the digital images. I also have had fun editing for brightness and color. Many of my digital images are better than the original slides! I am extremely happy with this product.

User questions & answers

Question:	It used to be that after photos are taken and still in the camera when roll is removed it cannot be exposed to light. How does this work
Answer:	U can look up YouTube how to pull out w the screw, inside is 35mm and it does work w this scanner
Question:	Does this unit save directly to a computer or do you have to save to SD Card and then to the computer
Answer:	Yes. The scanner records the images (JPG) on removable media like a camera or directly to the computer via USB cable (included). You can transfer via USB or by removing the media and transferring it that way
Question:	Does the type of media inserted determine the number of megapixels an image is converted to
Answer:	There is no tray, you push the 1st slide in. It is not in the center for the picture to show completely so you use the 2nd slide to push the 1st slide in position and after digitizing the 1st slide you continue to push the 2nd slide all the way in. The 1st slide is not yet all the way out so you push the 3rd slide in a little way so you can get the 1st slide out. Continue with all your slides. Once you do about 10-15 slides it become very routine and works well.
Question:	The ntsc out is really useless, only way to get digital images is to write to the sd card, correct
Answer:	I don’t know about the dpi but it is 14.0 megapixels (4320 X 3252). Much better than the old slides we have scanned in!

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with windows 10 and latter os version? does this come with drivers for windows
Answer:	I have Windows 10 and it works fine for me. Installed the files that came with the scanner and after registering the software I upgraded to the latest release of the program
Question:	Does it work on Mac? Thanks
Answer:	HI Trailblazer Yes, OpticFilm 8200i SE support Mac 10.8-10.14 . You can see detail spec from plustek website https://plustek.com/usa/products/film-and-photo-scanners/opticfilm-8200i-se/ Plustek
Question:	How long it takes (mm:ss) for full resolution scan - with 2x multi-exposure and iSRD (dust removal) on. Thanks
Answer:	It all up to your computer. A fast computer wold take about 2 minutes. Per Plustek.Good Question.Anthony J Argy SrFull Color Copier Inc.
Question:	How "One Touch" is one touch? I want to scan thousands of slides into tiffs and later spend time with only a few to "fix" with software editor
Answer:	The scanner does not have an automatic advance for slides or film, rather you put the content into the carriage, then insert it to the scanner and each advance is manual. Once you get your settings for scanning set, save them and reload the settings each session. You can simply advance the carriage to each image then click the 'scan' button. It's pretty quick. Your sessions can be for whatever film or negative you have. For thousands of slides, you're going to want to be patient. Scanning takes 30 seconds or so per frame, depending on the dpi you choose, but this is nowhere close to a 'thousand slides in an evening' proposition...

Plustek OpticFilm 35mm film and slide scanner – High resolution, high quality digital images from your film and slides

The OpticFilm 8200i SE is a high-performance 35mm film and slide scanner that outputs brilliant digital images from analog film. It’s ideal for digitizing slides, color film and black and white film.

It’s the perfect scanner for professional and amature film photographers, and people that simply want to convert their old film and slides to digital format.

The OpticFilm 8200i SE uses a CCD sensor with 7200dpi high-resolution, specifically designed for film scanning, with 48-bit color bit depth that captures all the details from the original film. The scanner’s infrared channel removes dust and scratches eliminated the need for extensive post-processing correction.

State of the art imaging system

The Plustek OpticFilm 8200i SE is designed with state-of-the-art illumination and optical systems.

It uses a high-sensitivity color CCD sensor and LED illumination to ensure optimal image quality.

The built-in infrared channel detects dust and scratches on the film surface and automatically removes them.

7200 DPI High Resolution

This dedicated 35mm film scanner features true 7200 dpi optical resolution that ensures sharp and vivid images. Output files up to 68.9 megapixels are similar to those created by a full frame digital-SLR camera.

You can create high-quality enlargement prints up to 36” x 24”.

High Dynamic Range

Dynamic range is the range of recordable light from darkest to lightest on the exposed film that a scanner can read.

With a dynamic range of up to 3.6 D, you will rediscover how beautiful and natural the highlights and shadows are in analog photography.

iSRD - Infrared Dust and Scratch Removal

Slides and negatives always have small dust particles and tiny scratches on them, even when handled very carefully.

The OpticFilm 8200i scanner has an infrared channel that finds all the the dust and scratches on the film surface. Infrared light has a very wide wave-length, which allows it to pass through film emulsion of negatives and slides without resistance, as opposed to scratches and dust particles that reflect it. SilverFast iSRD utilizes this behavior as follows.

The image is scanned two times - the first is the regular scan and the second is the additional infrared scan that captures defects like dust and scratches only. Then the calculative dust and scratch removal takes effect, only where the infrared channel has detected any defects without losing any important details.

In conclusion, OpticFilm 8200i Series can automatically remove the dust and scratches from the scanned image.

Dust and scratches are removed during the scanning process eliminating the need for post-process removal of dust and scratches.

Professional-grade software for scanning and optimizing scanned images

The Plustek OpticFilm 8200i SE scanner is bundled with SilverFast SE Plus 8.

SilverFast software is designed for both professionals and beginners for digitizing their analog images. Its intelligent automatic functions make it much easier to get brilliant results and exceed your expectations.

For Example:

• SilverFast NegaFix with over 120 profiles for negative film ensures best results when converting negatives into brilliant scanned images.
• SilverFast iSRDx feature is perfect for correcting dust and scratches on slides and color negatives without sharpness loss.
• SilverFast Multi-Exposure reveals more shadow details and creates less image noise.

SilverFast software is available for both Mac and Windows platforms and also includes a native Adobe Photoshop plug-in.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the ac adapter dual voltage ac 100-250v compatible, or is it just an ac 120v adapter
Answer:	The ac adapter is ac 100-240v, 50/60hz compatible, according to the tiny print on the adapter end that plugs into wall current.
Question:	does anyone know how to program the scanner to automatically stop scanning after 50 slides (the size of the tray
Answer:	I use this fine product in my job. The answer to your question is in the software. Open the program. Go to the upper left, hit "scan", go to "multi-scan". In the lower part of the box, type in the "range". For Example 1-50 for the entire tray.
Question:	Does this work using operating system macos high sierra
Answer:	I use the latest Apple Mac OS---you should be fine
Question:	Can I use this to scan 35mm negatives. If the answer is yes, how automated (if at all) is the process
Answer:	Yes, but you have to cut and mount the negative in 35mm slide holders first. Then it is just as automated as slides. If you main purpose is slides, but you have an occasional negative, this will work. If your main purpose is negatives, chose a film scanner instead of this device.

Question:	Will it work with mac's new os, high sierra
Answer:	Yup, really nice to not have 4K limitations time limitation. Wish it would be possible with the A7R III with firmware
Question:	There are so many bad reviews for this product. What's a better alternative at this price range
Answer:	a7R3 with MC-11 adapter for Canon lenses "hunts" a LOT and for me was not acceptable except to use on manual for macro work. Thus, I expect the adapters will not work for the R4 either. You would not want to buy this great camera and then use Canon lenses. Besides the functionality questions, from a business perspective, Canon and Nikon are getting so far behind Sony and are way undercapitalized compared to Sony, I see their problem getting worse and Sony continuing to rapidly gain market share. The value of my Canon lenses dropped dramatically in the time it took me to bite the bullet and sell all my Canon equipment.

Color management is the process of controlling the way colors are represented across various devices.

OpticFilm 8200i Ai gives the best solution for calibrating the color and easy workflow. With the 35mm IT8 target and the auto IT8 calibration tool of SilverFast Ai Studio, color calibrates the film scanner in just two mouse click and 2 minutes. It can analyze the scanned file to characterize the specific color reading capabilities and compares the measuring table, which is built per under the ISO-Norm 12641, to a reference file associated with your color target. The difference between the two is mapped into and generates its unique color profile. The calibration and characterization of image devices help ensure that during the production process, an image is reproduced as accurately as possible.

iSRD - a highly reliable and comprehensive solution for infrared-based dust and scratch removal.

Slides and negatives always have small dust particles and tiny scratches on them, even when handled very carefully. Removing them one-by-one takes a tremendous amount of time, since often hundreds or thousands of small defects (dust grains or lint) are found on the original image, which only becomes visible after digitization. PlustekOpticFilm has a reliable solution to this problem.

The OpticFilm 8200i scanner has an infrared channel that finds all the the dust and scratches on the film surface. The infrared light has a very wide wave-length, which allows it to pass through film emulsion of negatives and slides without resistance, as opposed to scratches and dust particles that reflect it.

iSRD utilizes this behavior as follows (Automatic)

• Step 1 : Use white light for regular RGB scan.
• Step 2 : Use infrared scan that captures defects like dust and scratches only.
• Step 3 : Maker the dust and scratch on image.
• Step 4 : Calculative dust and scratch removal takes effect, only where the infrared channel has detected any defects without losing any important details.

In conclusion, OpticFilm 8200i Series can automatically remove the dust and scratches from the scanned image.

Dust and scratches are removed during the scanning process, eliminating the need for post-process removal.
