The scanner is real good and fast and has good quality. The digital camera is nothing special and for me is a pain because there are no instructions, just a slip of paper. It has internal memory so you cant use a card. However overall I would give this 4 out of 5.

Why would anyone sell a scanner that is MacIntosh compatible in a package with a digital camera Macs cannot use? That is what happened to me! This Mikrotek camara is useless on my Mac G3 since it's for Windows only! I assumed since the Scanner was Mac compatible then the camera must be too! .... Also the camera is super small (about 4" by 3") and there isn't any guidelines with it or directions and specs. Just a tiny slip of paper with about two generic sentences on it telling you things that anyone with common sense already knows. It's made in China and consists of cheap plastic like those throw away cameras from you local drug store you use one time only. The cap for the lens cover falls off constantly and no way to fasten it back on. ....

I purchased this scanner just over a year ago. It is alot slower than the last scanner I had....which lasted quite awhile, and the ScanMaker 4600 is already broke after only 1 1/2 year of use.

Plenty of software to utilize every corner of home or office scanning. Best scan quality I have seen. It pays to go with a company like Microtek, they focus on specific products and try to make the best. Sorry HP and Canon. Microtek has you beat. With the right printer and paper you can make photo quality prints.
