In short: this scanner is capable of very high quality scans, but for normal quality scans it works well enough to make files that will print very well at 5x7 size. Four levels of scan quality besides "normal" are available, but higher quality scans take much longer. When you open the driver, the options are fairly clear, except that B/w negatives should be scanned as "Slides," not "Negatives." The "Format" option offers nothing that can be changed.

The software shows only a coarse-grained copy of the image and indicates when a file is being written, but otherwise gives no activity feedback. The procedure is to mount the negative-strip or slides into a holder, then do a "calibrate" scan with the scanner empty (about 15 seconds), then insert the holder till the first image window "clicks" into position, wait about 7 seconds for the scanner to evaluat e each negative or slide density, click "Snap Shot" and then "Transfer" (i.e., Scan), which takes about 9 seconds.

The manual is all but useless and confusing.
VUPOINT FS C1 VP FILM AND SLIDE DIGITAL CONVERTER SOFTWARE DRIVER
The driver works only with Windows XP (or an emulator). The main weakness is the software driver, which is primitive, and which apparently requires the included ArcSoft software to use the driver. It operates reasonably fast (about four scans per minute, at normal resolution). On the plus side, this scanner is solidly built, totally quiet in operation, with well-designed negative and mounted-slide holders. Needing to scan some 500 B/w and color negatives, I decided to try this scanner. Works well, basic but adequate for most purposes

it has a small internal memory that holds about 9 pictures. if you get one, i would get a memory card, too. has ac adapter included or you can use batteries. I've since bought an image lab fs9t slide and negative scanner from. i can't prove that the scanner driver was the cause, but i've read ot her reviews that said there were issues with this item and vista. it kept getting worse and i finally had to completely reinstall my operating system. the blue screen error mentioned the possibility of a driver issue.

this pc had been trouble free for a few yrs and this scanner was the last thing i added to it. a couple of days later my pc started having blue screen errors. i didn't think much about it, just figured it was an updated driver or something. when i hooked up the scanner, the pc said i needed a driver and got one off the internet. i installed the driver and software with the included cd. the product says it works with vista and xp. i installed it on a pc using windows vista. VuPoint solutions have taken down the product from their products listings on their site, so that means theyve ceased support of the device.Since there is no Vista or 7 driver, just an XP one that means that you wont be able to get it running on a windows 7 now or ever. When i 1st got it working, it seemed fine. Bounced it off the floor and into the wastebasket.
