Scanning Perfected: Professional Quality, Pocket-Sized Convenience.

Achieve professional-grade scans at home with the VALOI easy35 v2—our latest film scanning solution. Built on countless hours of development and refined through years of user feedback, it's engineered to streamline your workflow. This plug-and-play tool attaches directly to your macro lens, scanning 35mm film and smaller formats up to 10x faster than a flatbed. The easy35 v2 is a complete redesign of VALOI's most popular camera-scanning tool, featuring significant mechanical and illumination upgrades. By attaching directly to your macro lens, it eliminates bulky copy stands and tripods, providing a stable, light-tight environment for high-resolution digitizing.

easy35 v2 Key Upgrades:

• The Universal Light Source (patent pending): A leap from 81% to 99% light uniformity. This ensures edge-to-edge illumination even with wide-angle lenses, effectively eliminating the "orange corners" and vignetting issues common in home scanning.
• Optimized Color Balance: The fixed color temperature is tuned to pre-balance the orange mask of color negatives and works equally well for black-and-white negatives and positive film.
• Precision Engineering: The v2 transitions from 3D-printing to an injection-molded ABS body for the main unit and features an all-metal rotation mechanism, delivering 5–10x tighter tolerances overall. A 5-point spring-loaded ball-bearing system ensures your film holder locks perfectly in place, keeping film perfectly parallel to the sensor.
• Smart Power Management: Battery life has been doubled to over 4 hours. The new Smart Battery Bypass allows you to run on direct USB-C power for marathon sessions without draining or heating the battery.
• Magnetic Accessory Mount: Now features a magnetic interface for the easy35 v2 Dust Brush, making it faster than ever to clean film on the fly.

Q&A

Are the easy35 v1 accessories compatible with v2?
Regrettably v1 accessories are not compatible with v2 system and vice versa because of the new improved design of the v2. The v1 holders may fit in the new easy35 but will not be held in place with the new improved 5-point spring loaded bearing system. We recommend upgrading the accessories too to enjoy the all over upgraded workflow.

What is different about the light source on easy35 v2 compared to the v1?
The easy35 v2 delivers a significant leap in performance, increasing light uniformity from 81% to a near-perfect 99%. This ensures flawless, edge-to-edge illumination, providing superior results even when using wide-angle lenses or scanning low-contrast negatives. More info on easy35 v2 details and comparison to v1 can be found further up this page.

Is there a Slide Holder v2 to the easy35 v2? Where can I find it?
Yes, there is! You can find all available holders as variants at the easy35 v2 Film Holder product page.
