Pacific Image Electronics PrimeFilm 1800AFL Film Scanner

Pacific Image Electronics PrimeFilm 1800AFL Film Scanner $225.69 At Amazon on 2-6-2012.

Auto-film loading, auto-focus; batch film scanning 1,800 x 1,800 dpi resolution 42-bit color depth, 14-bit gray scale 3.2 dynamic range USB interface; PC and Mac compatible Amazon.com Product Description At last, a professional quality batch scanner designed exclusively for the home user. Pacific Image Electronics' 1800AFL Scanner can handle 35mm slides, filmstrips, or roll film in just seconds per frame. 1,800 x 1,800 dpi optical resolution and a 3.2 dynamic range provide your scans with incredible detail and impeccably accurate color reproduction, while features like auto-focus and auto-load will guide even beginners smoothly through the process. Compatible with either PC or Macintosh systems, the USB interface keeps cord-clutter to a minimum while insuring speedy, glitch-free data transfer. The manufacturer includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service. I'VE TRIED THIS UNIT WITH FAIR/POOR RESULTS. ALL OF PACIFIC IMAGE SCANERS I'VE TRIED TEND TO OVER EXPOSE OR REQUIRE A PHOTO EDITING PROGRAM TO "CORRECT COLOR". I CURRENTLY HAVE THEIR 1800U MODEL. IT'S GOING BACK! (P.S. I SEE LARGE QUANTITYS OF THEIR SCANNERS BEING RETURNED DAILY.) ALL SCANS COME OUT ROSE OR BLUE HUED AND/OR THE COLORS ARE BLOWN OUT. I.E. NO BLUE SKIES OR WHITE WALLS. I DO ALOT OF MILITARY SHOWS AND EXPECT RICH COLORS NOT A PINK & BABY BLUE FLAG. THE 1800U CANNOT HANDLE DEEP SHADOWS IN B&W FILM. THEY TEND TO SCAN A MURKY GRAY COLOR. IT SEEMS LIKE THE LIGHT IS NOT OF QUALITY OR CALIBRATED PROPERLY. I SPENT A WEEK TWEAKING THE GAMMA, CONTRAST, BRIGHTNESS ETC. BUT STILL DO NOT GET CONSISTENT SCANS. YOU HAVE TO ADJUST FOR EVERY SCAN MADE. I'VE TRIED TO CONTACT THEM BUT THEY'RE NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I THOUGHT SINCE I WORK IN THE BLDG. NEXT TO THEM I COULD EXCHANGE MY UNIT BUT I CAN'T "WALK IN" TO DO IT. EVEN THOUGH I "WALKED IN" TO PURCHASE IT. WHEN YOU CALL FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE ALL YOU GET IS A ANSWERING MACHINE.
