I have used the 415 handheld scanner for nearly two years and, therefore, I am familiar with the product. This scanner takes all the 'chance' out of scanning. The resolution is great and the results are better than expected. The price point makes this VuPoint a bargain. I have one suggestion: use a good PDF app and the cataloging of receipts becomes easy. I use Nitro and I have used this app for years. I was surmised in the fact that the app cataloged the receipts as I entered them and it made combining them much easier. N.B.- There are many good apps that can handle this scanner, I just happen to have mentioned one of them. The scanner is well worth the little time it takes to collate receipts and documents.

This device works well mechanically and I found it very easy to scan a huge stack of photos quickly. I was disappointed however, after I scanned all those photos, when I found that the digital images had an extremely high contrast which caused detail in the darker areas of the photos to be lost completely. The device includes a blank sheet which is supposedly used to set the white balance, but it did nothing to improve the quality of the scans. After running into problems with E-bay's inappropriately named "30 day guarantee", which is designed more to protect irresponsible sellers, I ended up sending this scanner back to the manufacturer. I am hoping the manufacturer will be able to repair or replace the unit, because no matter how easy the unit is to use, it is worthless if it is incapable of producing quality scans.Read full review

This is by far the best potable scanner money can buy, is a life saver when always on the road and need to scan documents I pop it out of my bag and it scan documents, photos, receipts, whatever you throw at it in crisp rich colors as well as BW. The software that comes with it it's pretty basic but works, it runs on batteries so you can scan directly to the sd card or you can can plug into your laptop and store in any destination folder you choose, my clients are always asking me where they can get one because it's really convenient to carry in fact I have even taking it on vacation, last year I visited Argentina and meet with long lost cousins of mine who shared some wonderful pictures on my parents, aunts and uncles, grandparents the whole family and the scanner came in so handy, I was able to keep some very dear memories that otherwise I would have not be able to share with own grandkids.Read full review

I read a review prior to my purchase stating how a line runs through each scanned picture. Well, it's true. The majority of my pictures had a line running through them. I wasn't too concerned with that. Using medium resolution, I've scanned over 500 pictures and I'm still using the same set of batteries I started with. The scan rate is impressive. I was able to scan nearly 200 pictures in under two hours time. Scanning the same number of pictures on my printer would've taken me several days to do. All in all I recommend purchasing this scanner as long as you don't mind the line running through your scanned pictures.

Overall this product works as specified. I found that the Paperport software that came with the scanner was difficult to use. It wants to grab all the data on your hard drive.I decided not to use it. The scan direct feature is good. It lets you scan a document and save it all at the same time. I find this very useful. Also the ability to scan to a micro SD card is good. The only problem I have with this unit is how it grabs the paper. You have to be very careful when inserting paper, especially receipts. The tendency is to start scanning before the paper starts to go through. My primary purpose in purchasing this unit was to be able to scan receipts for tax purposes. Overall, i am happy with the unit.
