3.0 out of 5 stars Primefilm 7250 Pro3 Scanner, April 2, 2009

By	Gabor Gran "gg" (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Windows software installation works fine. On the Mac side, installation requires technical support.
Hardware is relatively slow. Self calibration happens too often.
Scanned images are good quality. Pricey

You will need a lot of time on hand to use it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hardware is great, OEM software is not, October 31, 2009

This scanner is exactly what I was looking for--a scanner that will scan in rolls of negatives and slides (one at a time). After trying it for two weeks, I have concluded that the hardware is excellent and very capable, but you will need other than the OEM software package (CyberView) to fully exploit the capabilities. The biggest problem with CyberView is that it is completely unstable--it crashes all the time (I'm using Vista Home Premium). Furthermore, while I could get an excellent scan from slides, I could not with 100 ISO negatives. I did contact the manufacturer--they were attentive and took in my list of problems with their software, but they have not fixed anything (but I hear there is a new software release coming out "soon"). After trying both VueScan and SilverFast, I found that the scanner produces excellent images from both slides and negatives, so plan on buying one of these packages at a cost of $50-100 (depending on which version you want). Both of the products are 100% stable and fully exploit the hardware capabilities of this scanner.
