ClearClick QuickConvert 2.0 Photo, Slide, and Negative Scanner - Scan 4x6 Photos & 35mm, 110, 126 Film - No Computer Required - 22 MegaPixels

The scanner works as expected and is easy to use.• It's really helpful to be able to scan from above the photo without using the base. There have been times I've needed to scan a photo "in place" in a photo album.• The multiple options for the size of the photos (e.g. 3.5x5, 4x6) are adequate, although it would be nice to be able to scan 5x7 photos. When scanning 4x6 photos, there is a little bit cut off all around the photo, so I'm careful to position the photo prior to scanning.• I've used it for scanning both slides and photos and am pleased with the results. I'm using it to scan old photos that are of varying quality, so I'm not expecting extremely high quality results from the scanner.• For slides, it works with the standard 35mm slide that is 24mm x 36mm. Note that it can't scan 35mm slides that are 40mm x 40mm square film size.• Others have noted that the scanner doesn't work well with curled photos. I put a stiff clear plastic page over the curled photo, then scan from above, and that solves the problem. The weight of the scanner over the plastic page flattens the curling.A big plus is the PhotoPad Professional software included with the product. When I purchased the scanner, I didn't realize how valuable this addition would be. Since some of the photos I'm scanning are poor quality, the software can help improve the digital version of the photo. I don't have Adobe PhotoShop and am not a professional "retoucher," but I find the software useful for light editing, including color correction and adding text.

This ClearClick image scanner was purchased (initially) for the creation of the ultimate Christmas gift. Family members *truly* enjoy having their decades-old slides & photos available in electronic format.It is relatively labor intensive to work through any project of this type, but where there is a will, there is a way. No doubt, the ClearClick streamlined the entire process and produced amazing results. Where professional digitizing services charge (on average) ~$1/slide or photo, this unit will far exceed its price tag value when you have hundreds to thousands of photographic memories. If you can allocate the time doing the work, yourself, then just do it.Couple of notes:- if scanning slides, use canned-air to remove dust particles prior to each scan. It's well worth the effort, you don't want to have to redo anything. I went through 2 cans, cleaning ~900 slides. I eventually picked up an electric handheld, dust-blower/remover since canned-air can be pricey. At present, I still have a over a few thousand slides yet to scan.- If scanning boxes of slides, carousels of slides, or envelopes of photos:-- Just a suggestion: do one entire box/envelope/slide-carousel at a time. I moved them after each completed batch to a computer.-- I named them using the slide/photo film development date and slide/photo number (when available), using a naming scheme of '<year>_<month>__<slide#/photo#>.jpg, so '1971_08__15.jpg' as an example. Where there was more than one box with same developing dates, I suffixed the month with a letter, ex: '1971_08b__15.jpg' which was slide 15 from the second box. Moving the image files off from the scanner card (using USB mode on the ClearClick) and renaming the jpeg files right away eliminated any potential for confusion of what had already been scanned.- Scanning one slide/photo does take ~1-2 seconds, as indicated.- Scanning photos while they're still in the plastic of an album 'works' but the rows of scanner LEDs could sometimes be seen on the top and bottom of the finished scan. Removing them from the plastic, while it adds more time, is well-worth the effort. You only want to "have to" scan your photos one time, in my opinion.- The ClearClick on-screen menu took a little bit to get used to, but it's relatively intuitive. I only used the brightness and RGB color adjustments a small handful of times. Keep in mind that each of those color adjustment settings remains 'set' until the unit's power is cycled or if you go back in to reset them.- I haven't tried the HDMI 'preview via a TV' feature, but that is certainly a bonus. The screen on the unit worked for my needs.- The included 32GB SD card was more than enough. Image files were, on average, 3-4MB in size using the 22MP setting. The ~900 jpeg files were ~3GB, in total.

This is a good little scanner for those who want to digitize old photos and slides. For slides and negatives it works very well. In fact the negatives show up as positives on the viewer, making it easy to decide if you want it. For photos, it works well although there one drawback. To scan, you pick up the body from the base and lay the photo in the base. Put the body back on and scan. Old photos tend to curl, and there is no way to flatten them for scanning. Also, the directions are not well written. In my case, I had some trouble making it work initially. I contacted the company directly, and they were very responsive, which counts for a lot. Also, this scanner includes the 32G memory card, while many others I looked at do not. I think the price is a little bit higher than it should be, but that's just me.

I have had a huge box of photos that were just dumped in a box dating back to the 1960s. I am currently scanning each photo, organizing the photos, and digital photos by year. The Scanner does a phenomenal job and does it quick and simple. On Amazon I purchased two "novelinks Transparent 4" x 6" Photo Cases and Clear Craft Keeper with Handle - 16 Inner Cases Plastic Storage Container Box (Clear)" in which I am organizing the physical photos by year. Once I have all my photos digitally scanned, I can then put my organized physical photo storage case away in storage.

This product is easy to use and does exactly what it says it does - make electronic copies of your photos. Can scan in the base, or remove base and put copier directly over the photo. 4 x 6 is maximum size though. One of the great things that happened to me was the product support from the company. I could not find the SIM card. I inquired at the address in the booklet and received a response within a few hours. I looked all over for it but could not find it. The company Rep by the name of Tyler shipped me a replacement within 48 hours. I have never had such great service from a company. Four stars plus for this device and company behind it.

Well made [almost] and easy to use. Does slides [5 stars for that] but the led light source for copying off pages or photos doesn't go on - at all.Back to quality control. Should have been obvious before packaging.Fact is, I have a much better way to batch pages... so I'll keep the unit for slides which it does well.
