    Why are my ION SLIDES 2 PC slides overexposed?
    • K
      Kyle ZamoraAug 30, 2025
      The ION SLIDES 2 PC self-adjusts to your slide/negative exposure. Wait for the live view window to stop adjusting before clicking "Capture". Also, your slides or negatives may have been overexposed when originally developed. Consider using photo adjusting software to clean up your digitized picture.

      A black border around the edge of the image can appear if the slide or film isn't properly inserted in the holder, or if the holder isn't fully inserted into the ION SLIDES 2 PC.

    Why are my ION Scanner slides overexposed?
    • A
      Ashley MillsSep 9, 2025
      If your ION SLIDES 2 PC is working but some slides or negatives appear overexposed, it may be due to the auto exposure time varying with your computer configuration. The image copier self-adjusts to the slide/negative exposure. Allow the live view window to finish adjusting for exposure before clicking “snap shot” or pressing the copy button. Also, check if your slides or negatives were overexposed when originally developed.
