I am really sick and tired of conventional scanners. Over the years I have tried every brand of the scanners, only to find that none is reliable enough. Moreover the durability is the issue. An average scanner lasts just 6 months to a year. Then there is the problem of drivers. God forbid! If you have misplaced the CD that has come with the equipment you are doomed. I was really in need of a device like Hammacher Schlemmer Digital Photo Converter. Apart from the fact that I am given the task to write the review on the device, I really appreciate the idea. The device has come at just the right time.
The device comes with a sliding tray, just like a CD or DVD drive. The photo to be converted is placed on the tray and as the photo comes out from the other side a digital version is ready to be used. I accept that digital cameras are mainstream now, but the person like me who have a large stack of paper photos or who would have to convert office documents to digital formats the device is panacea. Moreover Hammacher Schlemmer Digital Photo Converter can be connected with a PC by a USB cable making the device more applicable.
The sensor employed by converter is 5 Mega Pixel CMOS, exactly like digital cameras.
Photo converter would not be too heavy on your pockets and can be bought at $79.95. Worrying like me that the device would just be another not so reliable gadget, it comes with a life time warranty.
