Once the softwear was installed I went right to work and haven`t looked back. I had been looking for a replacement for a Microtek that had given up the ghost. The only glitch is that if the scanner sits idle for a while, it gets `lost` and won`t scan. I also needed a better capability to scan slides. This fit the bill nicely, and at a decent price. Have to unplug, then plug it in then it`ll work. Other than that I love it.
I bought this scanner primarily to transfer my old slides to a digital format. I have only scanned a few paper items and it works well. While the transfer is by no means quick, I am very happy with the results as I can now view and print my slides from decades ago. I have owned it for about 6 months. Having to unplug the unit to turn it off is no big deal. I would purchase this again as it is a low priced way to transfer your slides to a digital format.
I also love the photo software that came with it. I purchased this scanner a few months ago to use especially for scanning old photos & slides, & have really loved it. I have had absolutely no problems with it; it works quickly when plugged into a high speed USB port, & produces high quality reproductions. I have used it to "repair" some old photos that were torn or stained, & it works easily & thoroughly. I highly recommend this scanner.
This scanner serves my needs for copying documents, creating.jpg images from pictures, slides or negatives, creating PDF documents and any other imaging requirements. The included software makes it easy to use and has never caused any false starts. Great product at a great price.Bruce Cole
I use it mostly for converting 35mm slides to jpgs. Sometimes, for some reason, the scanner treats the slides as negatives. You need to change the order of the slides in the holder to "fool" it back to the 35mm setting. Other than that, it's been great.
