Review : Quality and construction
My initial impression was that his was a poor quality product. The instructions were some of the worst I have come across and the mains adaptor fell apart in my hands. There is therefore a question of electrical safety. I did mange to clip the adaptor together and now believe it is safe, if used with caution. After a number of trials and errors, working out how to find my way around the menu I managed to scan and save images. Comparing these with a rather old but high quality slide scanner they were of higher quality. The colours reproduced with this device were close to the original requiring little correction. I am therefore satisfied that the device performs as specified but has some questions as to the build quality.
