5.0 out of 5 stars Great Scanner, March 16, 2009

By	LiLi "LiLi" (Hudson, NH USA) - See all my reviews

I got this for my dad for Christmas 2 years ago and its great. We have so many slides that we could never look at and now that they're scanned into his computer, we can look at them any time we want! Brings back some great memories : )
It was very easy to calibrate and use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great toy, June 10, 2009

By	J. Solomons - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just got this item and I love it!! I am running windows Vista and I was up and running in about 10 min. You have to install the driver and the picture software. I have made copies of both slides and negatives and both came out fine. You need to check off if you are working in slides or negatives because if you have it set for slides and you do negatives they will not convert to a color picture for you. You need to calibrate each time you change from slides to negatives but that's no big deal because who goes back and forth. The direction it comes with is pretty good. So far I am very satisfied with this unit. The only downfall is it is a bit time consuming since you can only do 3 slides at a time, but that's not the end of the world. Don't let any negative reviews freak you out, this is a decent machine and will get the job done for you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Waste of time and my money purchasing this time, May 9, 2009

By	John D. Santivasci - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this item as it stated it is compatible with Vista. The manual states it is compatible with Vista. After spending hours trying to get it to work, I called the company tech support. The first thing they told me was that the software needed a patch, and the website to go to. So I did, and spent more of my time trying to get it to work with the patch. I finally gave up, and called tech support again. This time they told me that if I was using Vista 64, the machine wouldn't work. I was using Vista 64. I went to the manual and it states it is compatible with Vista 64. I was told to return it at MY expense. They falsely advertised it was campatible, even put it in the manual, then made ME pay for thier error. I will never do business with them again. No integrity.
