Surprising quality and ease
The quality and ease of using this product was surprising. I frequently scan newspaper articles, and they rarely fit on a flatbed scanner. Thus, I had to use Photoshop to stitch together 2-3 scans of the articles, which took considerable time. This scanner will handle A2 size paper, which is big enough to capture all major newspapers (e.g. Wall Street Journal), is easy and fast to use, and delivers crisp clear optics. It even has its own source of lighting. Excellent buy, and I rarely take the time time to rate products.

Handles large size texts
It seems to work although installing and functioning took some time. Advice from help desk did not help much and the user guide is limited.

Great compact, easy to use, cost effective scanner!
Had been searching for a while for a high end, but affordable scanner for my 16 x 20 paintings. I have attached one of the scans. Beautiful. The light on the scanner is best used with no additional lights in the background. You get the best scan.

Very Limited
After spending an entire afternoon with this document scanner (it’s really a camera) I decided to return it. My goal was to scan my documents and photos. This product is so so on document scanning. It’s terrible for photo scanning. The image quality was unacceptable and the software, while somewhat easy to use, is extremely limited. For the cost of this device, I expected a better quality product in both hardware and software. Steer clear of this one.

I was pleasantly surprised
I was searching for something to replace my old 11×17 flatbed scanner that is no longer supported. I had my doubts when ordering this product, but I was pleasantly surprised. You have to be very careful about making sure you have good, even lighting, and you have to be careful about aligning the sheets consistently, but the results are quite acceptable. This would be a good product for someone trying to scan large maps.I am going to buy a plexiglass sheet to hold the papers flat, but that’s the only change I’d make.

This could be a great product if the manufacturer could get his act together
First, this product works amazingly well, but you will have to figure that out for yourself, because while they say you can download a “user’s manual” all they seem to have available it a “quick start” guide. AND, there wasn’t even a quick start guide in the box shipped to me, but I found it online. The online specs for this S21 model are wrong. The online specs say it has a 20.1 megapixel camera, but the unit actually does 27 megapixels!! There doesn’t appear to be anyway to focus the camera, but the autofocus seems to work remarkably well. The software that figures out where the printed text is on a page is just mind blowing. It figures out the most absurd document geometry presentations. While they say a “Scanning Mat” comes with the product, I didn’t get one in my box. The really bright engineers who designed this product could sure use some tech and sales support worthy of the product.

Not Worth It
I’ve used various strategies to capture documents and books and I was initially attracted by the 23MP density and large-format scanning. Sadly, the device will not render text with sufficient clarity to take advantage of the sensor size and produce good OCR results; rather, I could get better OCR using my phone or my M4/3 camera. I will be returning this scanner, as it fails at the one job for which I really needed a dedicated device:It’s unsuitable for digitizing my personal library of textbooks and literature. If the device’s light is off and I use an oblique source of illumination, there is too much noise in the image, not enough contrast. If I increase the ambient lighting or use device’s light, I get washout and/or glare that makes texts unreadable. Something in the automatic light sensing and exposure-adjustment either needs refinement or the components are simply not up the task—there is nothing in the software that is available to the user to manually adjust things like focus or exposure.

We had a missing part that, after contacting the seller they acted very swiftly to replace this. Then followed up to ensure it had arrived safely.The product is excellent and just as described. Would thoroughly recommend.

Spijitig dat de vertikale arm niet kan verlengd worden. Is nodig als het boek wat groot is. Oplossing is er de scanner op een verhoogje zetten.

Perfekt

Its fine but why do they make the software so complicated. It may be wonderful for a very busy teacher. But for me its a nightmare. Today in 2021 your software engineers should be so very good that you make things work without US having to think too much. I do feel you should ask some old man how HE wants to use this lovely tool and how he wants the software to work. And then it would be so easy for the new generations coming on. The technology in the hard ware may be 21st/22nd cent. The software is way back when we had green screens, can you remember that???”Add a photo or videoShoppers find images and videos more helpful than text alone.” it says in question two. Well when I have worked out the software I will happily submit one.For the hardware I would place at least three to four and a half stars. One star is for software.
