I hope this review helps out any MAC / OSX 10.5 people out there.My criteria was to buy a decent 35mm film scanner that fell within $200 - $300. Had to be OSX compatible and create scans around 5 megs each I believe it can go up to 12 meg scans.At first I thought I would be stuck with buying a really expensive scanner but did read some reviews of this Plustek. As others have described the instructions are lacking.Installation.Based on the my installation experience of the software this improved compared from the past reviews. I installed the silverfast software SE software and and started scanning within 10 minutes. I recommend that you also go to their website for the latest update. I received this in November 08 and was several revisions down. Everything went smoothly after the update.ExperienceDepending on the quality you are looking for this unit did go beyond my expectations with old 35mm film. The speed to scan is not bad. If you are using single pass. You can use up to 16 pass scans but that does take much longer (Noticed the Silverfast app would crash after first installing the sotfware. To fix this I ran disk utility to repair permissions and everything is working fine). A single pass scan take about a minute to show up on my macbook pro. Dust removal does work but really depends on how much damage was done to the film. The more damage, the more you will need to retouch using photoshop.Finally, the filter presets for the type of film does work great. Use this!Final ImpressionsAs I am writing this I dropped this down from 5 to 4 stars. For the price this is a great scanner. Works with my Macbook Pro and and does excellent scans. It is a manual feed scanner. I am taking one star away because it does not include the best documentation and the web site support is rather lacking. The Silverfast software is not as intuitive as other OS X applications but isn't too bad after getting used to it. If you have prior experience with scanning and retouching this is a great film scanner.

Mechanically it's simple to use. The software is something else however. After installing the software, one has to fine tune it to give optimal results. This isn't a bad thing just tedious, it's got a lot of filters to turn on or off. The results are well worth the tuneing.

I bought this scanner specifically to improve my efficiency in scanning slides on a Mac and could not get the same scan quality as I had with my Canon flat bed scanner. Scans consistently were under exposed with poor color saturation. I could not easily correct with the software.

I have used it for about a month. It is sooo slow. It also has glitches in the software. It was hard to install taking 3 attempts to even get it running. Quality of scans is satisfactory. Positioning of slides is poor and often takes a couple trys. It frequently gives the message, Not Responding and requires a second scan taking several minutes. A bunch of minutes if scanning at a level with quality. You can make a cup of coffee between scans and i mean starting with pumping the water, going to the store for the beans and grinding them by hand.If you have countless hours to dedicate to scanning your slides it might be OK. it took me three days to scan a tray of 100 slides. If you only have a few then go for it. If you have several hundred or thousands then prepare to spend the rest of your life doing this choir.

I was a professional photographer and photographic lab technician for a total of 17 years and find the Plustek 7300 a cost-effective and useful tool. I have approximately 8000, old slides and negatives to sort through, and I will probably only scan a small fraction of them, so a medium-priced,dedicated scanner like this Plustek makes sense for me.It gives amazingly detailed scans of both slides and negatives, even at just 3600 dpi. You can go even higher if you like, but the files become huge, and unless you are going to print a 16x20, you don't need to go beyond making a 3600 dpi/50 megabyte TIFF (which will convert to an approximately 5 to 8 megabyte JPEG). You can send 4 or 5 JPEGs of this size via e-mail at one time, but if you go bigger, expect a lot of problems.The Silverfast software that comes with it gives excellent control over color and contrast. Based on what I have read about flatbed film scanners, I doubt that I would have been satisfied with the resolution they offer as I have always been a high-definition hound. Neither am I worried about scanning every negative I ever shot, so I don't need the speed of a flatbed scanner. If you want to escape to your computer now and then to convert your best negatives and slides into a modern, useable format, this scanner will serve you well.

The product is good for quick scanning slides. I have already scanned over 1000.Support was pretty quick when I had an issue.The silver fast prorgram is very confusing and I will stick with Photoshop Elements for editting

I PURCHASED BY THE REVIEWS I READ. THIS ITEM IS COMPACT AND DOES WHAT IT SAYS, IT'S NOT THE FASTIEST BUT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RECOVER ALL THOSE OLD PHOTOS AND SLIDES. I ALSO PURCHASED ADOBE PHOTO SHOP ELEMENTS VER.8 AND VUESCAN SOFTWARE WHICH ARE EASIER TO USE THAN THE SILVERFAST SOFTWARE IT COMES WITH. THIS TAKES A LITTLE LONGER BUT GREAT RESULTS. I'M VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE. VUESCAN SOFTWARE AT [...]

the scanner comes with 2 software cd's. i installed the one that is for the 7300 and not the Silverfast which i was saving for later. after the software installation said Finish i finished but i did not think the software really installed correctly. i began to use the scanner. i have about a zillion slides i want to put on dvd. i scanned in 2 slides and got 2 itty bitty 9k images smaller than a thumbnail. i still suspected a software install problem as when following their procedure one screen display never appeared.i then tried to install Silverfast and it crashed my system. i uninstalled the first software and tried a reinstall. no go.i went on plustek web site and submitted a tech support request.four weeks later no answer.eventually i found out my dvd player was crapola and had gone flakey on me right about the time i got my plustek. after installing a new dvd i got a good install from both softwares and i am up and running now!product is great, both softwares similar and both are good.so provided your dvd player is operative i recommend this product.

This is a good product overall. I used it for couple client project to do about 1000 slides total. I would have rated 5 stars if it was not for the clunky software. For the price this is a great scanner. I would recommend.

Easy to use. I am not wild about the software that comes with it. Seems like you can find other scanners that remove dust and scratches when it makes the scan. The software that comes with it is very average. The actual piece of hardware is nice, but all your touch up work has to be done in Photoshop.Because of the software issue I'm not sure I would recommend it to someone. Do your research on the software that accompanies your scanner. That the one problem I have with this scanner

I've been using this scanner for a couple of days now, and have scanned approx. 50 negs.Pros: Works as promised. Installation is quick and easy. You can get the software installed and ready to work in minutes. I tried both Quick Scan and Intelliscan. If you are trying to preserve your treasured memory recorded on your negs, don't bother with Quick Scan as its result is quite poor. Intellican, together with SliveFast software, on the other hand can produce very good results. I'm now using Intelliscan exclusively to scan all my negs into digital photos. SilverFast software is powerful and feature rich. There are many switches and knobs you can turn to adjust your scan result. The build quality of this machine is also very impressive.Cons: I consider these things minor, but they do affect user experience.1) There are 3 Quick Start guides when you open the box, how will you know which one to go first? Well, let me document it here so everyone else can save some time. Follow the Quick Start guide for hardware and driver installation first. If you don't want to bother with Quick Scan that generates poor result, skip the guide on that. Follow the guide on SilverFast software installation guide. Once finished, you can start scanning your negs and slides using Intelliscan.2) The learning curve for SilverFast is steep because its documentation is not very well organized. The CD does contain QuickTime movies that explain various features in the software, but there is nothing to connect them together to give you a bigger picture on the work flow that you will go through. But I still find that to be more useful than the doc.3) The film holder is not the easiest thing to use. I wish it had "teeth" that can quickly and easily hold your neg strips in place.4) If you plan to scan all your negs accumulated over the years in one weekend, it won't happen.Conclusion: Overall, it's a very good machine that gets the job done. Result is good, and price is reasonable. For all the memory recorded on your early pictures, spending a bit time to preserve it is well worthwhile.

There are a few issues, but I'd buy it again. Originally, there was a film alignment issue: the frames had a 2 degree tilt and the bottom of the image was cut off. I probably should have sent it in for warranty work, but instead took it apart and fixed it. Now it looks great. SilverFast works okay, but the scratch & dust removal feature is pretty much worthless. Plan either to upgrade to a more expensive version of SilverFast, or spend a lot of time manually removing scratches and spots. And the scanning process itself takes awhile. If I was scanning professionally, I would not be happy. But the quality of the scans themselves is very good, so for personal use and considering the price, I'd buy it again.

This scanner is a marvel! It arrived less than 24 hours after I'd place theorder, and it has changed my life! I'd struggled with terrible name-brandflat-bed scanners for years [they produced terrible noise in the shadows andwere dead-slow at resolutions above 200dpi] in my efforts to digitalize acollection of many thousands of treasured 35mm slides dating back 50 years.Not only is this scanner incredibly fast compared to the my old ones, but itdoes a triple pass for every slide, then averages the results to produceimages that are beautiful and have no noise in the shadows. I've succeededin making wonderful pictures from slides that were terrible! One set, veryimportant to family memories, taken in 1969 at a special occasion, had beenunusable due to inadequate flash technique [they made everyone look likestainless steel; i.e., no flesh tones and gleaming highlights]. Due to thecapacity to try different resolutions [up to 7200dpi] and then use theremarkable software to achieve optimal tones, I was able to resurrect theentire collection, with the exception of a few that had been hopelesslyunderexposed. Trouble with finding the detente position for the slide carriagereported for earlier/other models has been eliminated on this model. While Ican't just set it and walk away the way commercial processors would have todo, I'm thoroughly delighted with this unit. Thank you, Plustek & AOL.

Does an excellent job. I had to disable my camera on the computer to get it working however. On the other hand I was guided very carefully and tactfully by a telephone service person who responded promptly (next day) to my e-mail for help.

This is marginal at best. If you are looking for high quality imaging, THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU WANT. It was so bad I returned it for a refund.If you purchase - here's what you'll experience:1. Inordinate amount of time to capture the image.2. Image quality is poor.Save your money.

I've done some research on scanners but still wasn't sure if this was the right one.. That was until I set it up and used it. Great Unit! Made the right choice, good quality, very happy with the results.

This is the second one of these I have purchased. The first on was windows only, but didn't say so on the Amazon site. I bought it through AntOnLine via Amazon marketplace, won't do that ever again. Ant would not take the return because they said they don't take returns on things with optics. So I gave that scanner as a gift to someone who uses windows. I bought this new scanner, now Mac compatible, but NO mac instructions in the docks. The driver disc had no Mac software. I tried the Silverfast software, again no Mac instructions, but DID find a Mac instal, after really looking around on the Silverfast disc. It installed well, weird install but worked fine, and now Silverfast talks to the scanner and I can finally scan!! But just to prove the Mac software still has need to improve, there is no quit command. You need to use command Q or force quit. But it works, it works well, and that's all I really care about.

Yes, It's slow but worth the wait. I left film photography several years ago to get "into" the digital era. But I missed the quality of Ilford and Kodak B&W film. Plus I have tons of Negatives laying around. As a result, I've taken my old film camera's out from storage (Nikon fe, Nikon f100) and began shooting several roles. I then decided to have most of my c41/b&w film developed at the local mini lab and scanned on a disc for digital editing... The best of both worlds I thought.But something was missing... I soon realized that taking film to get developed by others takes the fun out AND is frequently a hit or miss experience. So I dug into my storage room and found my developing/darkroom equipment and then began to do some research on quality 35mm scanners. Plustek was the best for it's price and was recently reviewed on Shutterbug mag. The downfall... Plustek Opticfilm 7200 wasn't MAC compatible. BUT... to my surprise this new model (7300) as well as the 7500 are now MAC compatible. Fairly quick and painless to set up and get started. And yes it takes some time to scan (especially at highter res) but I'm in no hurry especially since I'm so particular of results. I totally recommend this scanner to anyone looking to digitize old 35mm film or for those creative folks that want to use both analog and digital formats. Does the trick!

Easy to use with good quality results but it can be a time-consuming process. Probaby not the best for someone with thousands of 35mm negatives to process as there is no "batch processing"...

The Plustek scanner has been great so far after 700 slides is working great. I use it with OS X Leopard. The photos are looking great and get a color and brightness tweak automatically. there are shortcuts you will use when you get used to it. Obviously scanning one slide at a time is going to be slow to go but the quality is extremely high and the files can be very large if you choose to save them that way.Installing the program was a bit of a challenge, I had to register it online first before it would work.I hope this helped someone to choose this scanner, it is really a great buy for the money
