Shine Ultra Smart Portable Document Scanner, USB Book Scanner with OCR Auto-Flatten & Deskew, Document Camera for Desktop/Laptop, Capture Size A3, Compatible with Windows & Mac OS

Super easy to use. Decent quality product. Can scan the book fast unlike the multifunction printer.

I purchased the CZUR Shine Ultra Smart Portable Document Scanner to digitize over a century’s worth of business records, some dating back to 1902, and it has exceeded all my expectations. Now that the archival project is nearing completion, I’ve also started using it for regular, day-to-day tasks—and it performs flawlessly in both roles. *Pros:* 1. Exceptional for Archival Work: The scanner handles delicate, aged documents beautifully, preserving every detail with crisp, high-quality scans. 2. Versatile for Daily Use: Beyond archival work, it’s a fantastic tool for everyday tasks like scanning correspondence, invoices, and records, making it a truly multipurpose device. 3. Ease of Use: The intuitive design and user-friendly software make it easy to operate independently, even for those in remote areas with limited technical support. 4. OCR Feature: The ability to turn scanned documents into searchable text has been a game-changer, saving time on both archival and routine searches. 5. Reliable Delivery: Despite being located in a remote area, the delivery process was seamless, and the product arrived in perfect condition. 6. Compact and Sturdy: The scanner’s compact design and sturdy build fit effortlessly into my workspace without compromising on durability. *Cons:* 1. The software could benefit from minor updates to make advanced features even more intuitive. 2. OCR does not include a lot of Indian languages / scripts *Overall Experience:* The CZUR Shine Ultra Smart Portable Document Scanner is not only helping preserve over a century of historical business records but is also proving to be an essential tool for regular daily tasks. Its versatility, ease of use, and reliable delivery make it a standout product, especially for users in remote locations. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable, multifunctional scanner. Whether for archival work or day-to-day use, it’s a fantastic investment!

The product is good. It really scans all the book very quickly. Scan qualities good too. I do think that how the pages which are scanned depends on the quality of the computer power. But overall this is recommended if you are scanning a lot of books. It definitely serves that particular purpose. its ocr capability its very bad infact pathetic and unusable. You may required to install any third party professional OCR software. The software interface could have been better. Overall a good product. Do I don't think there is any kind of customer service in India. So if there is any issue probably have to throw it out

Great scanner, here's what I thought about it broken down by different aspects: -Packaging Comes in a nice, sturdy box with a handle so you can easily carry it and pack it up in an organized way when you're storing it between scanning sessions. -Software The software it comes with is straightforward and easy to use. I really didn't even read the manual, I just installed the software, plugged in the scanner, and figured it out and started scanning in like 5 minutes. -Functionality How it works is it comes with a black mat, you put your book/paper on it and select single page mode or book mode. Single page mode scans one object at a time, and it automatically crops the page against the black background; there are some finger tabs for holding pages flat and the scanner software automatically makes them disappear. For book mode, it scans two pages at once, and splits each page into its own separate image. I have attached some example scans from this product, compare it to the setup photo I took with my phone - even though the page isn't level, it automatically flattens the perceived curve from the camera snapshot, so you don't need to fiddle with making the pages flat. The cropping and page flattening is great, it just works. When you're done scanning, you can export all the images as various document types such as word/pdf, or you can leave them as images. Of course, you can choose where to save the base images to help keep organized. My wife also uses this in her classroom as a visual presenter where she can put a page underneath and write on it, and project it in real time on her projector. -Quality I have attached photos for black/white mode, color mode, and a final word document export. I should also mention, the export automatically processes the image to identify words and does a great job. I picked a page with tiny text on a 5"x8" book and you can see from my attached images that the camera is good enough even for tiny text, and can accurately translate that into a word document. Note that for some glossy pages, the light can reflect back to the camera and reduce quality, but for matte surfaces and "regular" paper, it performs excellent. -Speed It comes with a foot clicker so you can fully use your hands to flip and position pages without slowing down. Flip the page, give the camera a second to focus, press the foot clicker and repeat. As you scan, you can see a preview image and it's pretty apparent if something went wrong, maybe 1 out of 2-300 page flips or so I find I want to do a rescan which is totally fine for me. Depending on how focused I am, I flip a page every 2-4 seconds, on average maybe 15-20 page flips a minute, so that's around 300 pages in 10 minutes! Which I think is super good. Overall it's straightforward to use, takes good quality scans, exports files well, and scans through books quickly. I am very satisfied with this purchase and recommend this for anyone who wants good, fast scans.

Easy to use, very clear image

I paid £210.98 for a source of light. First thing, the provided CD-ROM didn't work, whirring and grinding something awful as if burning to disc. I removed that and decided on downloading the software from the website. Probably safer. Did that, hooked up the machine, followed the instructions, 'looking for device...' Device could not be located. I followed all the steps to see if it could be found, but no. The scanner felt flimsy to me and... empty. No sound, no nothing. Cold to the touch. Like, you know when something's dead, including hardware, it loses its warmth, its heat, the light goes out, there's nothing there. It was like that. It didn't feel like there was anything in it (or to it). An expensive torch, headlamp for a bridge troll. Of course I'm on a deadline so this was really helpful (SARCASM) - overseas delivery wait and then the faff of the return. Obviously I'm returning it for a refund. I'll replace it with something at a fraction of the price that I bet will work just fine.

Scanner excelente. Atendeu minhas expactativas. Consigo digitalizar livros e documentos para uso pessoal: com precisão e eficiência. Antes de conprar, fiz uma longa pesquisa e cheguei a conclusão de este modelo era o ideal para mim: e valeu a pena. Por meio de um PDF-editável, consigo localizar pavravras-chave, termos específicos que me ajudam nos estudos. Recomendo muito.
