What it is

The DigitNow! M125 is a compact 5 megapixel film scanner that digitises 35 mm negatives and slides directly to an SD card up to 32 GB. No computer is required for scanning; the built-in 2.4 inch TFT LCD shows each frame before you press the scan button. An adjustable rapid slide feeder holds roughly six to eight slides for quicker batch work.

USB 2.0 limits

Images transfer to a PC over USB 2.0, so large batches move at the speed of that interface rather than modern standards. The TV-out cable carries an NTSC or PAL signal for direct viewing on a compatible television. The scanner draws power from the supplied adapter, not the USB bus, and supports Windows XP through 10 plus Mac OS.

Deciding spec

The fixed 1800 DPI optical resolution determines the detail captured from each 35 mm frame. If you need higher resolution for large prints or archival enlargement, this scanner will not meet that requirement. For casual archiving and on-screen sharing the resolution is adequate.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5 MP or 10 MP setting for my 35 mm slides?

The 5 MP setting captures the full 1800 DPI optical resolution; the 10 MP mode uses interpolation and adds no extra detail from the film.

What does the 1800 DPI figure mean for a scanned 35 mm frame?

It records roughly 1800 dots per linear inch of the original slide or negative, producing a JPEG that can be printed or viewed at larger sizes than the source.

What does the USB 2.0 port actually do on this scanner?

It lets you connect the scanner to a Windows or Mac computer for file transfer; the device also runs standalone and saves directly to an SD card up to 32 GB.
