Review: Good for old Printed Family photos and any A4 down document - When I started to look for a photo scanner I was going to spend £400 plus on a multi-feed scanner, I'm glad I didn't. As it's very unlikely the very small photos from 40 - 90 years old would have been able to go in the auto feeder. That said this is a great piece of kit and works very well. you have to feed each photo but take's in the photo once the photo reaches a certain point and scans very quickly. I have scanned over 1500 photos over about 10 hours and this includes filing them etc. far quicker than an all-in-one lifting and placing each one. I already have four other scanners 2No A4 BW both sheetfed, 1no A4 single sheet colour and 1no A3/A4 multi feed/single sheet colour. Three are Brother, one HP. All are very good but none does this job as well as the Plustek Some reviews complain about the software but it does what it says on the tin its simple to use and once you get into the rhythm very easy. There is a limit of 50 photo for each batch but all you have to do is save this batch in a location of your choice and start again you can scan 1 or fifty it doesn't matter and save each time. The quality is fine and when you consider the age of some of the photos you are likely to scan and the cameras our ancestors used. This scanner brings out a good image sometimes better than the original. I am very pleased with it. One note, this scanner does not scan negatives for that you would need a Plustek OpticFilm 8200i SE which is about £300. It's been very good value for money especially when you consider the competition.
Review: So far, so good! Qick and intuitive - I bought this in place of an Epson V600 whcih I could never get working after 4 hours of dicking around. That was a flatbed photo scanner. This is a top-loader. This is a top-loader photo scanner which does docs as well. Set-up took <5 mins including downloading the drivers. So far it has been excellent. 300dip jpg wizzes through and 6oo dpi jgp a smidge longer. It does all normal formats though I haven't tested them. I did 60 photos in 25 mins including faff time, and have hundreds to go so am really glad. Does sizes A4 down to passport size. The feeder auto-centres when you feed in. Lots of functionality. The cost of getting the photos digitised was roughly £0.80p/photo so it definitely made sense to me to buy. Only a couple of whines - could be some documentation and the target directories could be easier to change. You need to wait for the scan process to finish before the next one can be done even though the photo has already come out of the bottom. Good thing is that the photos are grouped as you put them in but not saved so you can select them all and put them into a specific folder, but once saved to the folder you can't edit them again unless you re-scan or use another package. So far I am really impressed with how simple it was to set up and use - definitely intuitive. For smaller photos you can put them in two at a time to create a single image. The footprint is roughly A5 deep and high, and A4 wide so nowhere the footprint needed for a flatbed. Plus the ergonomics of an intuitive top-loader make it quick and easy to use - no dicking around with lids and having to place photos in a specific area. Doesn't do negatives though, but not an issue for me. So far a great buy - definitely reccommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product - however...
*by H***W on 4 June 2022*

Decided after many years that I needed to take control of my photo collection (about 5000 pictures pre-digital camera era) and hoped that this would be the device to allow me to do that... Initial thoughts on unpacking were: - good design - solid build - simple physical setup Installing the software (for a Mac) was a simple case of visiting the website and downloading the latest version, double clicking and then installing - what could go wrong? Running the calibration was also straight forwards - select from the menu and follow the prompts. The application, as has been pointed out in other reviews, is not the best and provides almost no standard features we have come to expect from a modern application: - opens in one of two modes, either a fixed size window or full screen. There is no option to resize... - opens on the primary screen only. I have a multi monitor setup for my Mac and had to set one of the large monitors as "main display" and then reopen the software to get in on the screen. Once installed and visible on the right screen the actual software use is straight forwards, configure the filename default, set the folder location and the resolution and you are good to go. The scanning resolution can be set to either 300dpi or 600dpi only - no additional options. This is acceptable for home use, but not for any "serious" requirements. The software has a set of simple controls for image quality and picture restoration. Again, they are suitable for home use (archiving, sharing, TV display) but I would recommend using an alternative product to correct the image if quality is paramount. Scanning is very simple, and in the case of 300dpi, almost ridiculously fast. Drop the photograph into the scanner feed location and 2-3 seconds later it appears on the screen ready for editing. All image are scanned to a staging area to allow them to be corrected and then saved - but you are limited to 60 images before you MUST save them which prevents you from scanning large number in a continuous run. I can only assume this is due to software limitation and the lack of correct memory management. It is also worth pointing out that the scanner can ONLY be used by the provided software - it does not appear as a selectable device other applications. HOWEVER... I have returned my scanner due to hardware(?) issues causing a "lockup" / "freeze" at random intervals through the scanning process. As a result I cannot comment in depth on the additional features of the software or the results it may be possible to achieve with some practice and mastery of all of the features - but my initial impressions (once you get past the limitations) were quite good. I really wanted to like this device: - it is simple to use - it is relatively inexpensive for what you get - it is fast (even without an automatic document feeder - see the Epson devices but be prepared to pay a premium) - it produces reasonable images which are more than suitable for home use ...but the annoying hardware glitch has spoiled the overall experience for me. Overall the quality and end-to-end workflow is, for a relatively inexpensive bulk scanner, quite good - and I would recommend this product for anybody with a large photograph collection looking for a cheap alternative to a professional scanning service. Hopefully you will get one that works correctly - by the number of reviews on here there are a lot of people who have - but the bottom line from me is that the product is good at what it does (when it works) but is let down somewhat by the software that supports it.
