Overview
HP built this film and slide scanner to convert negatives and slides to digital files without a computer, using its touch screen and quick-load tray. A USB-C port connects it to a PC or Mac when you prefer.
Standalone operation lets you digitize a shoebox of slides without tying up a computer, and three common film formats are covered. The listing leaves out care guidance, a holder list and any file format details.
Who it's for
A family archivist converting old slides and negatives who wants a simple screen-driven workflow. Professionals who need large formats, detailed color control or stated file types will want more detail.
Pros and cons
- Works without a computer
- Touch screen controls
- Three film formats supported
- Medium format not supported
- Care instructions not listed
- Output file types not described
Performance notes
A film scanner backlights each frame and a sensor captures it, so sensor resolution and film cleanliness govern sharpness. Dust and fingerprints on a slide show up in the scan, which is why handling matters. Memory-card output makes the process independent of a computer.
