Fast and simple

 

I needed a way to digitize old photos fast. This did the job. The interface is simple, the scans are instant, and the quality is excellent.About me... Frequent user

Fast, simple, good quality scans

Photos sometimes slip out of the tray and fall into the scanner

Consumer review by:

Great scanner, easy to use

 

I love this! It scans slides, negatives and pictures. The pictures do better on a flatbed scanner, but I was more interested in converting our slides and negatives.About me... Frequent user

Scans very quickly

Does not scan pictures very well, but I didn't buy it for that

Consumer review by:

Very pleased with this purchase!

 

This little machine has allowed me to reduce 4 boxes of vintage slides and an old projector to just a couple SD cards and a jump drive. I love that I can save my father\'s old slides and show him these wonderful memories without a projector. I put the...

Poor quality images, misleading "Auto-Focus" claim

 

The box claims that the unit has "auto-focus." In reality, it's fixed focus. Even then, I wasn't impressed when I manually held the slide caddy in the optimal position (there's a lot of slop in the alignment of the caddy). The dynamic range is poor, so...

easy to use, no computer needed, includes SD card

fixed focus with sloppy photo/slide tray, fixed zoom, poor image quality

Consumer review by:

useless - returned item

 

As stated above - useless and returned. Take it or leave it. It is too short because the product has no redeeming value

nothing

everything

Consumer review by:

Not worth the aggravation

 

Customer Service from Ion is non-existant. You have a question about the installation and have to wait over 30 minutes on the phone listening to muzak. You hang up in frustration. You call back and talk to their operator only to have her inform you...

When it works it works

High Frustration Level

Consumer review by:

Great item!

 

I got the Ion Audio PICS 2 SD Photo, Slide and Film Scanner as gift. When I opened the box it looked fragile. Once I read the instructions (which are very clear and easily understood), the viewscreen scrolled before it finally adjusted itself to view...

The simplicity of using the device

It seems fragile and sensitive to handling

Consumer review by:

Look at something else if you need great scans

 

I thought the price was kind of steep, espeically because it only scans one frame/picture at a time. I will give it thumbs up for the speed of scan. You can only can one at a time but it doesn't take long at all. However, the colors were not very...

Overall scan quality

Consumer review by:

As good as it gets

 

This thing seems to be basically a simple digital camera with a macro lens and the ability to reverse image negatives. The material is cheap plastic, but for the price, it does a fine job. Yes, it picks up spots and scratches. Yes, you have to load the...

Simple, easy to use

the film trays are hard to get open if you have arthritis

Consumer review by:

Does a pretty good job.

 

I bought it. I unpacked it. I scanned a 40 year old Polaroid picture (b/w). It did a great job. I scanned ( I realize its not really a scanner) several more, including some color slides and 35mm negatives. It does what I need it to do. Since it has no...

Easy, Simple Set-up
