In the realm of film scanning, Kodak's Slide N Scan range has stolen the limelight with their latest offerings during Amazon's spring sale. These all-in-one scanners, available in three different screen sizes, cater to various preferences and needs.

The Kodak Slide N Scan models, including the 7-inch, 5-inch, and Scanza variants, stand out for their built-in screens that aid in finding the best frames from a collection. These scanners are designed to convert 35mm, 126, 110, Super 8 & 8mm negatives and slides into digital image files, using built-in sensors ranging from 14-megapixels to 22-megapixels.
The Kodak Slide N Scan with a 7-inch screen offers a more immersive scanning experience, boasting a 22-megapixel sensor and supporting 35mm, 126, and 110 film formats. This model, priced at an undisclosed sale price, is currently on sale, with a reduction of $42.
The Kodak Slide N Scan with a 5-inch screen, priced at $169.97 (down from $224.99), is a more compact option that still provides a good preview size. This version offers the same 22-megapixel scanning capability and compatibility with 35mm, 126, and 110 film formats. It is available through July 15.
The Kodak Scanza, with a 3.5-inch screen and a 14-megapixel sensor, is the most portable model. It supports 35mm, 126, 110, Super 8, and 8mm negatives and slides, making it a versatile choice for multi-format scanning. This model, also on sale, is discounted by $32.
These options provide flexibility depending on your need for screen size, portability, and supported film formats during Amazon's ongoing spring sale. The 7-inch model is best for a more immersive scanning experience, the 5-inch balances size and usability, and the 3.5-inch is suitable for multi-format scanning with a smaller screen.
