Darn good! A considerable upgrade over Wolverine. More durable control buttons, which operate in an up-down-left-right manner similar to a computer monitor so that commands are more intuitive. Much less fussy with regard to image stability - generally rock-solid, jitter-free image (I use the drop box method still, though, and haven't tried the tension on the take-up reel) without threading all footage onto small reels or 8mm reels to avoid reel sway on the super 8 adapter. Had a little reel drag at the end of a 600 ft reel, but livable comparative to outrageous jitter on Wolverine. Actually has enough room space it may take an 800 foot reel, though this is not advertised in the materials. Much sharper image copying than Wolverine (sometimes a little too sharp, picking up some grain - but that can be compensated for in final editing), A bit tricky on exposure levels - some settings have a tendency to cause the shutter exposure to get fooled and result in image flicker - so you have to experiment a bit. If you see a lot of flickering during the copying,, try another setting. Sometimes darker is better, once in a while not. Still magnifies Eastman red fade, but not so purple as Wolverine - a bit more brown-orange, still compensable in premiere pro editing. Frame area sometimes has tendency to pick up reflection from lighting in the room on the film as it passes - recommend masking over the film-path area with a Post-It while transferring. Scan speed about the same or both machines. Using the drop box method, it is best to avoid all the posts as the film comes out, just letting the film drape itself over the top of them into the box, to avoid friction. The machine does all the pulling. Same problem as Wolverine with dust collecting in the lighted frame area - have to carefully check the scan from time to time to avoid spots, and pre-check the film for lint and hairs. Wish it had Wolverine's combination brush and dust blower for cleaning the light area - glad I have one from my other machine. Also a shame it won't play the scan image direct to a computer while transferring to watch for the dust - but actually, the larger built-in screen on this model is sharp enough to pick it up easily anyway. I was fearful at first because of the machine's rectangular screen that the scans would also be rectangular instead of 4:3. But no, that's only for the machine's own readouts, which conveniently move some of the commands outside the frame area so you don't have that aggravating lettering on the image during transfer that always blocked you view on Wolverine. One last command which actually is not as flexible as Wolverine - the zoom in and out of the lens is considerably preset rather than gradual - so it's difficult to frame the image exactly as you want it in final without either cropping some of the picture on all sides, or pulling back to see the frame outlines. So it's best to pull back, and trim out the excess on the sides in final editing.
Still, very nice.
Good Choice

The unit arrived in perfect condition. It is very intuitive to operate, and the results are not perfect, but very good. The only thing that is a bit annoying is getting the film correctly seeded in the scanner itself. It is quite doable, but is a bit tedious and requires a very well lit view of the area.
