A webcam as slide and photo scanner?

A webcam as slide and photo scanner?

Jay-tech PS970 Combo image / slide scanner (1800dpi, LED, 12bit per channel) (Accessories)

Customer Review

How have written before me already some reviewers, the device is characterized by a very simple operation. Unfortunately this is missing some important features that would very useful for photo / slide "scanner".

First of all: I will deal exclusively on the photo "scan" because I do not have slides and thus the function could not test.

So it is striking that there is no way to zoom in on the displayed image to disappear the visible image on the edges of the plastic photo frame. Since probably only helps a post on the computer. Also lacking any advanced image options that are urgently needed, such as an exposure setting.

It turned out regrettably that the device delivers a rather unsatisfactory picture quality. The lighting inside the case überstahlt the inserted image so that dark areas and bright areas are greyish completely overexposed. For a moment to smile offered me this a clearly visible reflection of the camera on the course, glossy photo paper (!) - A bad design? I would like to not comment at this point and prefer to let pictures speak instead of many words.

The following figure shows the same motif that the Jay-tech equipment has been digitized and the other with the scanner of my multi-function printer to a. In the lower area to find images in original size, which provides a good insight in terms of sharpness, contrast and noise performance. Enjoy Yourself!

ADDENDUM:
I also still have some negatives "scan". Again, it was found that the images are not included with the quality and stored as it would actually technically feasible. The image contrast is very low, the colors tend to bluish and all it is a strong color noise (see the example image above) visible.
