 The ability to shot in RAW makes it well worth the price.Feb 27, 2007
By Bradley Mayes
I have purchased 2 scanners labeled as "photo scanners" both with slide attachments both over $300.00. The HP produced poor results, the Canon was acceptable but you had little control over the scan. Being able to shot the slide in RAW gives us an incredible amount of flexibility!
We now use this device for all of our slide "scans". The initial mage is not better than the Canon but the ease of manipulation and repair is pretty impressive. RAW is just easier to work with than a JPEG....
Highly recommend to those who want to rescue their old slides. On a digital camera with the ability to shot in RAW you will get MUCH better end results than a typical "photo scanner".

 Works fine but doesn't accept thicker plastic framed slidesAug 03, 2008
By Jens
"Firebird93"
Works fine with my Canon XSI w/18-55 Kit Lens. Slides do require minor cropping and tuning after taking the picture of them - nothing to complain about. My only real annoyance with this thing is that it only fits my paper/cardboard style framed slides - my thicker plastic framed slides (many from Germany) do NOT fit in the device. I think I will probably go through all my thinner framed slides first, and then disassemble it and reassamble it with some kind of spacer to make room for the fatter slides. If it wasn't for the issue with the thicker slide frames it would receive 5 stars.

 Great ProductNov 20, 2006
By many slides to scan...
i scan many 35mm slides at my work. last year we purchased a semi-highend slide scanner by Nikon for around $1,000. i have found that the pictures of the slides that the Opteka HD² Slide Copier takes are far superior in sharpness and color then our slide scanner.
the Opteka HD² Slide Copier for Canon EOS Digital SLR Cameras was easy to use with my Canon EOS 30D and 20D, and i had no problems with the cropping out of certain parts of the slides as another review says.
i highly recommend this as a cheap, fast way to scan your slides.

Opteka slide copier works great.Dec 31, 2007
By C. Peaden
"happy camper"
I used a Canon Rebel XTI camera, with the Canon 55-135 telephoto lens. It required 2 step down rings, a 72-58, and a 58 to 52 to connect to the Opteka (about $15). The zoom lens allowed me to frame the slide precisely, and it easily focused correctly. Set the lens to manual focus (so as not to stress the auto focus motor in the lens). I put a 100 watt incandescant bulb about 1 foot from the back of the Opteka for light. This produced about a 3.2 meg digital rendition of each slide. You can do about 20 slides per minute. It takes a lot longer just to sort, group and align (right side up, correct face of slide to front) the slides than to insert the slides in the Opteka and shoot the picture. I built a little jig with stops at each end to limit the travel of the slide carrier so the slides always stop in the same horizontal position. With this, you dont even need to check the alignment of the the slide when you insert them- just insert slide, push the Opteka slide carrier over, and shoot the picture.
Great product. Shipped promptly by 47 Street Photo.

Digital Slide CopierNov 19, 2008
By Peter R. Wetton
Worked very well once I mastered the focusing and lighting set up. Natural lighting is by far the best and achieved by pointing the camera and slide copier unit at a brightly lit window
