  • QuestionDoes this scanner connect directly to a laptop? My computer does not have a slot for a memory card and I have 100's of 35mm slides I would like to copy to my computer. How long does it take to copy one slide? Thanks!

    Asked by Mike.

    • Answer The process works like this. You must insert an SD card into the scanner for it to process your work. As you scan your slides (if it is slides) you will save them onto the inserted SD card. Yes, the scanner will connect to a Windows 10 PC/Laptop. BUT, per the instuctions, that will only be for your computer to access the SD card in the scaner to upload saved digitized pictures from the SD card to the computer. Scanning/saving additional slides while connected to your computer will not function. You must disconnect from your computer to resume that process. So far, I've only saved to SD card. I've not connected to computer using the USB cable that came with scanner. And, since my computer has a SD slot, I may use that slot instead of connecting. The scanning/digitizing of a slide (saving onto a SD card) is very fast. Takes only seconds. I like how quickly I can do a tray of 140 slides. Hope this helps.

  • QuestionDoes the Scanza need a battery? If so does it come with one? We bought a Sharper Image scanner which we have returned because although it said it connected to my PC it didn't work as advertised. Is the Kodak easy to use?

    Asked by Scrimshaw.

    • Answer The Scanza uses 3 connections for power and connecting to your computer. The USB cable attaches to the Scanza and wall plug adapter for power to the Scanza unit. When done scanning, detach the USB part from the wall plug adapter and plug USB into computer. The computer gives the Scanza power and the you can transfer/copy your files to your selected directory on your computer. I really enjoy my Scanza. The film adapters are easy to use. Be gentle when sliding old slides, they do stick, but just remove holder pop open and move slide to correct position and put holder back in unit. I did massive research for home scanning and this is the best unit and best price for home archiving.

  • QuestionHow does it handle super 8 film?

    Asked by NHpondkoi.

    • Answer The Kodak Scanza can do single shot scanning only. If you want to scan the Film into a moving picture, that the 8mm and Super 8 is really used for. I researched the Wolverine products. I have not bought this product, so I cannot truely recommend it from experience. If I was to buy for moving pictures, it will be a Wolverine product. Customer reviews are the key on selecting a product. My background is in archival of documents and single shot photos and single shot film. Kodak Scanza is great for individual shots to JPG format. Easy to backload to PC, rename and organize. Hope this helps you. Have fun on your scanning project.

  • QuestionHow many slides will a 32gb memory card hold?

    Asked by Bernie.

    • Answer Once you turn on the scanner and save one slide it tells you how much memory is left on the SD CARD. I bought a 32 GB MICRO CARD which can hold 3270 slide images. It was hard to get this information before I purchased the scanner. I go through about 100 slides in an hour, take time to reminisce, and am saving about 10 from each of my 20+ boxes of slides. It’s very easy and you could scan them much faster, I’m having fun remembering some happy times with kids growing up from the 70-80’s.

  • QuestionI want to scan the negatives and slides and in them to my pictures on the computer. Does this device do this?

    Asked by Revdrjojn.

    • Answer The Scanza scans slides and negatives to JPG format. This is a stand alone unit. Then you attach via provided USB cord to your computer and transfer/copy to computer. Then you can organize and rename photos. The Scanza does not directly scan to computer. The cord used for the scanner has a attachment to the wall socket for power and the detached from wall adapter and attaches to computer for power and transfer. See photo attached for cord and adapter. It’s a great unit, I highly recommend it.

  • QuestionIn the User's Manual I see many references this device's ability to scan negatives but can it reverse a negative?

    Asked by Jim.

    • Answer When you scan negatives, the "negatives" has to be selected in the setup menu then it will change the image into a viewable picture that you will save just as you see it. If this is what you mean by reversing a negative then the answer is yes.

  • QuestionCan this product produce images from old 1960 2 1/4x2 1/4” negatives.? If so, how would they fit in machine and how to get them out? Thank you

    Asked by Laurie.

    • Answer The slot on the Scanza is 2 1/2 inches across and goes all the way through the device. A negative the size you describe would not fit into one of the adapter trays but you could slide it in to the slot with no issues. I had some old negatives from a Kodak Brownie camera that were the same size and I scanned them. I actually used the cleaning brush provided to slide the negative in and then push it through when I was done scanning.

  • QuestionWill this product work with the old Kodak disc negatives

    Asked by Larry.

    Asked by BunnyB.
