ION Audio, a company which manufactures entertainment solution devices and digital gadgets, has introduced its latest product called Slides 2 PC which is a 5-megapixel digital scanner.
This device allows users to scan their 35mm film negatives while allowing them to edit and improve their images. With color balance, automatic exposure, color conversation, and fixed focus range, people can enjoy high quality pictures.
One of the most impressive features of this device is the 2592 x 1680 high resolution capability which provides vivid and highly realistic color and well-detailed lines, providing high quality images.
This is how to operate the device: install the software on a computer (this is already included upon purchase) and connect the scanner using a cable. A blue light will appear which gives a signal that the device is properly connected to the computer. Simply put the 35mm film negative on the scanner and the picture will appear on the PC’s screen which can then be viewed by people.
Other impressive features are user-friendly menu system for easy operation; image transfer and editing software which allows users to improve the quality of their pictures; four glass optic elements; fast scanning operation; and extremely portable design which allows users to carry this around.
The Slide 2 PC can support XP and Vista Windows. To operate, this device requires USB Port 2.0, Pentium III 450 Processor; 50MB hard disk space; and 128MB RAM.
This device also includes two slide trays, negative tray, quick start guide, optics cleaning tool, and CD which contains ArcSoft PhotoImpression 6 software.
This gadget provides an easy solution for scanning pictures since there will be no need for any kind of computer accessory to make this device work and operate.
The Slide 2 PC comes at a price of $100 and can be purchased from the company’s website. This device can also be purchased from major electronics stores, supermarkets, and major online retail stores.

I guess this is better way of transferring your old photos to digital format – though I can’t see it taking over the standard scanning that people do these days.
Maybe I will be proved wrong though!
