 A good product for the price! July 24, 2008

I received this scanner about 4 months ago as a gift and whenever I have the time, I scan 100 of my 1400 plus slide collection. I had trouble running it on my XP computer as I ran out of memory. I have since purchased a Vista PC and it works fine. Although some of the slides scan a little on the dark or light side, for the most part, they come out pretty darn good, especially when you consider some of them are over 40 years old. Geesh, that makes me old, too:) If you have the time and patience, this scanner is for you.

I got this for my dad and he loved it. We had boxes of old slides in our basement for years that we never got to look at. Now that we have this scanner, he's scanned in hundreds of slides to his computer. We can now see our old family pictures on the computer. Brings back lots of memories : ). Quality is good and easy to use, too.

I recently bought this scanner from Brookstone, for $129. Alas I didn't do my research before buying a slide scanner, or I would have realized there were much better scanners on the market for the same price or less. Furthermore, this model (purports) to work only on Windows XP & Vista only, and not on MAC (to which I'll be moving soon). Finally, I was never able to install the driver properly. Although the software included on the cdrom did not show any error when it installed the driver, my XP could never recognise the device. Brookstone could provide me with virtually no support or assistance. They don't even have a technical support department. After doing a great deal of experimentation, I found that there was a missing file, which the cdrom did not contain or at least couldn't provide. Fortunately I was able to return the scanner to the vendor (at my expense) for a full refund.
