I'm overall dissatisfied with this scanner. At all resolutions you can see digital noise creating faint moire patterns on solid tones. There's no way to clean the sensor so dust will leave streaks in your image. Color rendition is pretty bad and requires loads of time to tweak. Basically there's no real way to write the raw sensor data to a file and perform color correcting in another utility. Although TWAIN compatible, the device doesn't show up in any other graphic or scanning software, so you're stuck with the limitations of the included scanning software. The most annoying thing is the presence of digital artifacts, fine discolored lines in the higher resolution scans. The only thing going for it is that it's light, portable, cheap, and can do a quick, decent quality scan to upload to facebook. Otherwise, save your money and rent some time with a real scanner, or by something in the $800-1200 price range. This is just a toy scanner, really.Read full review
The equipment works real well for what I wanted to do which was to digitize old 35mm slides taken years ago. It scans well and produces very good digital images. The user manual is lacking, in that things are not explained very well. However, the Pacific Image website has more detailed directions for using the equipment and they are very good. Both the Adobe PhotoShop and Device driver need to be updated before this equipment can be used. This is a process that is tedious, but if the directions are strictly followed, works well. If these items are not updated, the equipment doesn't work well.
Mediocre, Difficult to setup with Windows10

I never knew how compact this item was, but thats a good thing. The only thing I dislike about this item is how slowly it scan's. The quality of the picture after its been scan is pretty good. Look forward to using it for I have lots of slides to scan.
