I know, but even at 2 it's not enough for some films. Otherwise the picture is nice and would probably be even better if I could check the sharpness. But I can't get the lens cap off and I don't want to take the whole device apart just yet.

Thanks for the answer, I have to use version C. And I have a problem with the white balance on this one. It goes a lot towards the blue shade.

Can you write what firmware version you are using?

I have a tip for those who are bothered by film skipping. This is largely caused by the high friction in the film path, as someone already wrote here. I tried various tricks and finally found two that work. First I polished both sheets, because in their original state they were not completely...

I just want to make sure we're both talking about the same cover.

Oh the translator. I wanted to know how to remove the cover to get to the lens.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the lens cap? I thought it was snapped on, but I can't. I would like to check if the focus is OK.

I have the same problem, almost all films skip. And my scanner stops like yours. I'm wondering what to do, how to get it to stop like the one that works well. I wondered if it wouldn't be possible to adjust the mounting on the motor. If the mechanism could be rotated on the shaft of the stopped...

hi, I was considering returning it, that's why I was looking for the original firmware. I've tried probably all the ones here, but none of them have the same start screen. So I ruled out this option. As someone else wrote here, I tried polishing the film pressure plates and loosened the screws...

CDenhart Thank you for trying to help me. I've tried the firmware from the link before. Some didn't work and left only red spots on the screen. Some worked just like yours, but they all had the same defect. The opening image was different from my original. So the way back to the seller is...

Hi, my Kodak is probably very bad. Even the color film started to skip. It makes a strange clicking sound when scanning and at that moment the image skips. I'm thinking of returning it, but there is a problem with that. I uploaded modified firmware to it and I can't return it in this state...

Hi, I tried the latest firmware version, but neither version works. Both A and B only have colored spots on the display after restart. In version C, the display works as it should, everything can be set, but nothing is saved to a 128GB card formatted in exFAT. The original firmware wrote to it...

I'm trying color film and there's no skipping. The advance works fine, so the problem must be with the black and white films. They're probably dried up from age. Since I have a lot of super 8mm, I need to figure out how to fix it. Since the color ones are OK, I'd like to try your firmware. I'm...

Hopefully this piece will suffice as an example. Edit I just tried a normal 8mm and it came through fine. No skipping. It looks like a problem with the film.

Hi, how do I know what version of the machine I have? Is it A, B or C? I thought it was the first letter of the serial number I have C1725148BK00237. But when I see numbers starting with H, it must be different. Thanks a lot for the answer.
