Microtek ScanMaker 35t Plus

The lightweight ScanMaker 35t Plus is a single-pass, color slide and filmstrip scanner that offers 30-bit color scanning at an optical resolution of 1950 dpi (software enhanced up to 3900 dpi). This powerful scanner is perfect for various types of users: for magazine, newspaper, or catalog designers involved in prepress slide scanning; for photographers who want to archive their work or create digital portfolios; for multimedia developers creating presentations, interactive programs, or broadcast projects; or for anyone who wants to capture an image for Internet pages. Weighing less than five pounds, with a footprint smaller than a sheet of paper, the 35t Plus captures sharp, crisp images in over a billion colors and then optimizes that image data to a full range of color at up to 16.7 million colors or 256 shades of gray. To scan, just drop in a mounted slide and scan either in portrait or landscape mode. For filmstrip scanning, a handy filmstrip holder secures and positions images for a perfect scan every time. The 35t Plus was the winner of Imaging Magazine's 1997 Editor's Choice Award for film scanners, winning the judges' nod for best overall value and good, reliable scans.
