Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ Transform Your Memories: VuPoint Solutions Digital Film and Slide Converter (FC-C520-VP) by Brian Page

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Decent (but not great) slide/negative scanner

Decent low resolution slide/negative scanner. Advantages: 1. Easy to use - an untrained user simply aligns images and presses the SCAN.2 button. Uses SC card - Accepts large SD cards so you can scan TONES before transferring them to your computer. It's simple and transparent for the user.3. Decent (not great) image quality. Scans are cropped (missing edges) and low resolution. Both factors make them far from ideal, but the main expectation you should have is that this scanner will give you 'snapshot' quality and nothing more. If you're looking for serious film scanning, look for a much higher quality scanner. The main thing here is that this slide scanner is decent but not great. If you want to scan a lot of slides or negatives with "decent" quality and be done with it, buy this. If you need archival quality, don't waste time! Get something much better.

Pros
  • Compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7 and Mac operating systems; can be connected to a TV (NTSC or PAL) for converting or viewing images (optional)
Cons
  • dunno
