Using the included holders
Rapid slide feeder
The rapid slide feeder allows you to quickly scan a large number of
images.
1. With the lever positioned to the right, stack your slides in the
rapid slide feeder.
2. Insert the rapid slide feeder into the film holder slot on the right
side of Smart Film Converter.
3. Push the lever towards the left to load a slide, then pull the
lever back to the right again. Repeat this step for subsequent
slides (which will push the used slides out the other side).

8
Slide holder
The slide holder allows to load up to four slides.
1. Hold up the slide toward the light and look through the slide to
ensure it appears normally (not a mirror image). Now turn the
slide so the image is upside down.
2. Open the slide holder at the marked spot on the top. With the
slide holder laid open, place the slide into recessed area in the
holder (the slide should fit perfectly).
Note: Handle slides with care. Any dust, scratches or finger prints
will show up on your saved images. If possible, use cotton gloves
when handing slides. It is recommended to use compressed air to
remove any dust on the slides.

3. Close the slide holder and press the edges so that it locks in
place firmly.
4. Insert the slide holder into the slot on the right side of the film
scanner as shown in the picture.

10
Negative film holder
The negative film holder allows you to load a color or monochrome
filmstrip up to six frames.
1. Hold up the negative toward the light. As you look through the
negative, you should be able to read the small negative
numbers normally (not a mirror image). Now turn the negative
so the image is upside down while looking at the same side.
2. Open the negative holder at the marked spot on the top. With
the negative holder laid open, place the negative into holder
so the notches line up with the notches on the holder.
Note: Handle negatives with care. Any dust, scratches or finger
prints will show up on your saved images. If possible, use cotton
gloves when handing negatives. It is recommended to use
compressed air to remove any dust on the negatives.
