Digital camera reviews of Ion 35mm Photo Negative and Slide Converter to PC (SLIDES2PC)
Digital camera Review: "30 IMAGES PER MINUTE" MISLEADING
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased the Ion Slides 2 Pc to digitize a large family collection of slides from over the years. For its small cost, I thought I could save a lot by doing it myself and not sending it to a lab to do it professionally. Once you install the software (scanner driver, and Photo Impression 6), you reboot and then start up Impression 6. Click on "get Photos" and the quick scanner calibration starts. Now its time to scan. The program gives a live view what the scanner sees so you can align everything up(the trays click into place for each slide, but it is just to make sure everything is aligned), and then you can take a "snapshot" (using the button scanner, or the button on the program) of the slide, and continue onto the next one. Unfortunately, the scanner can only store 12 slide snapshots in its memory before it has to transfer them to the computer. When you copy over to the computer, the transfer rates are VERY slow. About 1 and a half minutes per each snapshot. The labeled "30 images per minute" is pure crap. If you can do up to 12, and then have to transfer, how could that be under a minute? On top of that, the file sizes were only 300kb(using normal quality). What took so long? I believe that you may as well just get a flatbed scanner with the slide attachment for it, because they both will take the same time and have the need for the flimsy slide/negative tray. Unless this product can be used with the driver and another program, I think it is a complete waste. The system it was running off of had:
RAM: 2.00 GB
CPU: Dual Core 1.7 GHz
Windows Vista Home Premium
