Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Pros: very quick scans, decent quality
Cons: manual is terrible, impossible to keep the glass clean
Model Number: 9MP standalone
I unpacked the unit a few hours ago. I've only used it for 20 scans. Here is my preliminary report.
- in general I like the scans. (I haven't done negatives yet, but slides and photos look good - except for the issues noted below)
- processing it is very quick (only a few seconds) - if you don`t use Magic Touch .
- the 3x5 photo scan cut off a little bit of the photo`s edges.
- the slide carrier has click stops, but they don't line the slides up with the viewer (so you spend too much time fidgeting with the carrier to line up the slide)
- Magic Touch processing (dust removal) takes 45 seconds per scan (which works very well, at times)
- Magic Touch only works for slides and negatives. (why not for pictures?)
- should have an on/off switch
- should have a carrying handle
- impossible to keep the glass clean (difficult to get dust-free picture scans. Remember no Magic Touch for pictures.)
- I'm curious why they call this a 9-meg scanner. I set it on Super Fine and 12 meg but can't get more than 2 meg files
- files get a timestamp of 1/1/2009 which is misleading (there is no clock)
- manual needs to be beefed up or include a disc version of a larger more useful document. (e.g., no instructions on what the "setup" options are.)
- manual says put slide carrier in with arrows up. (I don't see any arrows on the slide carrier)
- the menu disappeared when I pressed the wrong keys. (had to unplug to reset the menu)
- needs (at a minimum) on-line tech support.
- not sure if I'm going to keep this unit. (I've got 90 days to figure it out.)"
