A SUPERB LITTLE MACHINE
HAVING DELAYED MY DECISION TO PURCHASE, TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY, WAS THE MACHINE ALL THAT IT WAS MADE OUT TO BE, "DOES IT ACUALLY DO WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN" - I AM REALLY PLEASED AND IMPRESSED BY THE RESULTS OF MY WEDDING SLIDES - PERUTZ 1965 ERA - THEY CAME OUT REALLY CLEAR AND UNFADED. I NOW HAVE A SET OF SUPERB WEDDING SLIDES TO LOOK AT ON MY COMPUTER, RATHER THAN THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY OF DIGGING OUT THE SLIDE PROJECTOR AND THE INEVITABLE SETTING UP AND DISMANTLING OF THAT EQUIPMENT. I AM WELL IMPRESSED BY THE RESULTS OF THE ION MULTIFORMAT SLIDE AND PHOTO SCANNER (ALTHOUGH, NOT A SCANNER BUT A MINI-CAMERA) BUT WITH FIRST CLASS RESULTS FROM SLIDES, NEGATIVES AND PHOTOGRAPHS. I WOULD TRULY RECOMMEND THE PURCHASE OF THIS MACHINE IF YOU HAVE LOADS OF OLD PHOTOS, SLIDES AND NEGATIVES WHICH YOU WOULD LIKE TO BRING BACK TO LIFE. I AM NOW LOOKING FORWARD TO DIGGING FURTHER INTO MY ARCHIVES AND REVIVING MANY MEMORIES. IF YOU ARE "THINKING ABOUT BUYING ONE" - STOP THINKING, ITS WELL WORTH THE MONEY. HOWEVER, ONE PAIN TO BEAR. THE SLIDE / NEGATIVE PLASTIC HOLDERS LEAVE MUCH TO BE DESIRED. ONLY 3 SLIDES ON ONE HOLDER OR 6 NEGATIVES AND SINGLE PHOTOS PER OPERATION. THE MAKERS MUST COME UP WITH BETTER SLIDE HOLDERS - OPENING THEM TO CHANGE OVER SLIDES / NEGATIVES IS SLOW AND FIDDLY - ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SLIDE HOLDERS SIMPLY REFUSE TO OPEN! BUT THE WINTER DAYS / NIGHTS WILL BE WELL SPENT THIS YEAR. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Scanner is ok and reasonable fast, but beware iPhoto users...
Giving this 3 stars, because, it is okay. No more. It has just been released from amazon whilst being checked from a customer complaint. It seems to be the norm for some of these products! Anyhow, got this delivered today and have tried it to drop a review in. I have scanned some prints, old and new and some negatives, not tried slides yet. Firstly I have to say I have an agfa scanner also of a similar ilk I was hoping this would be better. In some respects it is, it is a higher resolution and there are controls on the unit for selecting B&W and cropping etc, the cropping is for selecting the 3 different print holders. The menu is not very intuitive, but you get used to it. Pros; its quite fast to use, get a pile of prints, divide them into size and B&W or colour and the only thing slowing you down is its a little slow getting the prints into the holders, its mainly because of the corners of the print. But it fast enough, 2 button presses and your image is scanned onto the SD card. Negatives and slides are as easy once you get used to positioning them and the scans from negs are ok. Cons; as a previous person mentioned you do get a light shadow on prints more so on darker images, it is the reflection of the light source around the camera, no, its not a scanner, it is a box with a camera in, so there are some LED's illuminating your prints, light shows through negs so not a problem. IF you want to digitise some old prints or you want to digitise some prints for general viewing its fine, but if you want to produce fine files to print bigger etc, its not so good, I doubt you could get rid of this effect easily, it is noticeable but not terrible, like i said, if you want to cheaply digitise your prints from the 1960's for keeping and viewing on a PC or Mac for friends and family stick one or two on FB then its fine. I didnt get a cleaning tool? You dont need to use it with a PC but you can without a card, but with a card you can sit anywhere and feed it prints and negs all day, then later get them on your computer. There is one BIG negative for me, the exif data saved with the photo is set at september 1st 2010, so after I downloaded my first scans into iPhoto on the iMac I couldn't find the pics amongst my 10000 pics, but eventually found them when i realised this in september of that year. This is disappointing and a shame you cant set any date on the unit. I am going to keep this and use it, because its, OKAY, no more no less. I find that scanned prints or negs from devices like this have a certain harsh effect at the same time appearing soft, considering negs are as high in resolution as a 24Mega pixel camera, they dont look so from scans with these devices. One last thing to remember is that it was supplied with a euro power adapter, i think it would fit in a shaver adapter, but I dont use mine I use one of the alternative power sources you can get from here, it runs on USB power anyhow. Update, May 2015. I guess the file date issue applies to anyone on macs and pc's, however I found an app to change the file creation dates so I batch change them. I have discovered another fault with this unit, I scanned about 5 rolls of film and was discovering on quite a few what appears to be fogging on the left hand corners, I was seriously thinking this was one of my 3 film cameras I use. Then when I inspected closer, some Ektar film i took thinking it couldnt be that bad, I reinserted it into the scanner and realised the scanner is actually creating som e highlight areas top and bottom on the left if there are any dark areas. Its totally un useable as a tool for creating decent files, but all you can do is use it to scan your negs to view them, only and catalogue them, if you want a scanner for creating proper digital files to crop or print from , it aint this unit...

At long last, a solution to my problem!
This is the third device I've bought over the years to try to scan the extensive family slide collection. Both previous options have been a nightmare in terms of the software they use (full of bugs) and have produced dire results. They both went back. However, this is great. Really simple and quick to use - I can scan a box of slides in 15 mins. The quality is great. Ignore what some of the reviews are saying; I think they're expecting to turn slides which might be 30 or 40 years old and which are likely to have degraded into something which looks like a modern-day digital photograph. The limiting factor here is the quality of the slide, not the quality of this product. My one criticism of it is that it doesn't quite capture the full slide - the scanned area is slightly smaller than the slide image. So where Dad took a perfectly framed photo of the QE2 as we toured Southampton docks in 1975, a picture which showed the full length of the old girl from nose to tail, I couldn't quite fit her in on my scan. BUT, for speed, convenience and quality, this is the answer I've been looking for for years!

Ottimo oggetto che unisce una qualità più che accettabile a livello amatoriale ad un buon prezzo. L'utilizzo è semplice e le funzioni incorporate efficaci per il raggiungimento di un buon risultato

Simple,works well and reasonably priced! It took me a little while to learn all the tricks. For instance, don't feed more than two slides at a time in the holder if your slides only fit in tightly. Clean dust off your slides before putting them in the holder. Clean the scanner inside glass surface with the brush supplied every so often. I did almost 2000 slides and the quality was good! It will be nice if the scanner comes with an auto feeder and an auto slide cleaning mechanism but then the price would not have been so much affordable.

Muchas funciones, facil de usar, pero muy malos resultados, muy poca definición, saca del paso pero lo acabas dejando encima del armario.

Works great but it takes a long time to insert scan and reject slides. It did capture my slides very good. I scanned 800 slides. Good product.
