The Valoi easy35 is an innovative, compact, and self-contained 35mm film scanning system that features a built-in light source and attaches directly to a macro lens, delivering professional quality scans in a system the size of a water bottle, while requiring no copy stand or separate light source. It is modular, compatible with most cameras, and above all, easy to use! 

This kit comes with the following components to get you started:

  • Valoi easy35 body with built-in light source
  • Valoi easy35 Standard 35mm Holder
  • Valoi easy35 distance tubes: 1x10mm, 1x20mm, 5x40mm (230mm total)
  • Valoi filter thread adapters: 39mm, 46mm, 49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 67mm (filter thread adapters are not needed for lenses with a 62mm filter thread size, as this is the native thread size of the easy35)

The kit does not include a digital camera or macro lens capable of focusing to a 1:1 ratio, which are required to scan film. The easy35 contains a built-in rechargeable battery that can be charged using the USB-C connection on the unit. The unit only comes with a cable so you'll need to have a power supply piece additionally to charge the unit.

Materials

The housing is crafted from Nylon 12, an exceptionally robust plastic that is both rigid and incredibly durable. The tubes, including the part that facilitates tube rotation for rotational adjustment, are made from aluminium and are anodised with a super-matte finish. The precise threading not only enhances the user experience but also guarantees that the device aligns perfectly with the sensor. Additionally, the super-matte finish ensures no reflections bounce back onto the film. Inside, there's a secondary diffuser crafted from a Plexiglas diffuser acrylic specifically designed for LED diffusion. This ensures no colour shift and promises consistency, with a guarantee against yellowing for 30 years.

Light Source System

Unlike cheaper solutions, the easy35 has a light system based around a powerful and high-quality light source with the folllowing features:

  • Powerful light output, with shutter speeds typically between 1/40s-1/200s
  • CRI 95 rated for great colour reproduction
  • Bi-colour LED adjustable to different colour temperatures
  • Internal reflector for an even light in a small footprint

Accessories

The easy35 has the ability to be mounted with a range of accessories like the easy35 Duster and replaceable film holders like the 35mm Sprocket holder as well as holders for special formats like 50x50mm mounted slides, APS, 110, 126 and Minox. Due to the small size of the system, it cannot scan 120 fim. If you want to scan 120 film with a similair system you'll need to opt for the easy120 which will be released in 2025.


Compatibility

Most interchangeable-lens digital cameras make excellent scanning cameras. You will need a macro lens capable of focusing to 1:1 magnification to scan 35mm film. Most of those lenses available will be compatible. 

It is not recommend using lenses longer than the following focal lengths:

  • Full frame: Shorter than 55mm, Longer than 105mm
  • APS-C: Shorter than 40mm - Longer than 70mm
  • M4/3: Shorter than 40mm - Longer than 60mm
  • Longer focal lenses can work, but it cannot be guaranteed there are enough included tubes to use this combination. Shorter focal length lenses can cause vignetting.
