3.0 out of 5 stars Ion Digital Photo, Slide, ands Film Scanner, September 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Ion Audio Photo, Slide, and Film Scanner (PICS2SD) (Electronics)
I am using this product to convert my old slides (from travels) to digital images so that I can put them all on DVDs and get rid of my old carousels and slide projector. Ion Audio Photo, Slide, and Film Scanner (PICS2SD). The item comes with terrible directions, so be prepared to have difficulty figuring out how to use it. Then, the process is pretty easy, and fast to scan our slides. The conversion does often result in images with a purple cast. I put them in iphoto to make color corrections the best I can, and my slides don't look too bad! This does add a lot of extra time, though. Also, the machine is supposed to store up to 14 images, but after scanning one image, it said "full" and it wouldn't store any more. I was on the phone with Ion company and they couldn't figure out why I was having this problem, although, I noticed... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Super great..., November 24, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)

I was very pleased with this item....if your slides are good quality the transfers will be in good quality...very fast and easy...didn't really need to read the instructions...don't know why others had a hard time...just put a few in and work with the buttons a little and you will catch on quick...I did at least 700 slides that were over 20 years old....didn't take long at all, even let 8 year old granddaughter help...after the holidays I plan on doing my many boxes of negatives, did a test on some black and white negs they turned out great...Love this machine, plan on sharing long lost family pics during Thanksgiving !!!

2.0 out of 5 stars No Bang for the buck, August 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Ion Audio Photo, Slide, and Film Scanner (PICS2SD) (Electronics)
The unit did not work well with photos. Scans did not look good. When the same photo was scanned with a 8 year old scanner the difference was very noticeable.
The Ion scanner scanned in 5M and the scanner scanned in 300dpi. File (JEPG) sizes were 1.05 mb Ion scanner and 1/2mb Acer scanner. I would have to believe it is the ion scanner itself with its LED light that is the scan quality issue that I have had.
Several observation points:
1. Scan Quality is an issue in my opinion with this scanner.
2. Scan quality/file size is another issue.
3. Internal memory holds only 3-4 photos far short of what the manual states.
4. Transfer to the computer via usb is ok but needs to be more direct without having to use a usb to computer dump menu option.
A software option solution would work far better, as I would assume most will be using a computer with this unit. For the cost of the unit I would expect that.
5. The Ion unit needs a solution for handling... Read more
