CZUR Shine 800 Pro Portable A3 Overhead Scanner

The product is quite handy for scanning different types of documents. The image quality is upto mark. The software makes scanning very easy and fast. Takes only around 5 seconds to scan a page giving reliable performance. For flattening the curved pages a higher model is required, but this does the job. It'd be a little better if there was finger rejection offered like there is in higher models by using czur cots, however by using black and white scanning option, fingers don't appear intrusive. Easy to connect with windows machine. The availability of light on stand makes the lighting appropriate for various daylight conditions.Would be helping if it has ocr for indic languages.Overall great product and worth buying for large scale scanning usage.

Wonderful product for scanning old documents

Really a good product and work as expected

If you are buying for converting hindi book in to ms word with OCR then you must NOT buy itTotal money and time wasteBut will give only 2 star for english OCR but didnt worth it because english ocr can be done by mobile also

I am doing a large scanning project for work and need to scan 26 boxes of paper documents. This scanner is perfect for the task because of how fast it is. Unlike most scanners, which have a physical scanner on a motor that slowly moves across the paper to scan it, this one is a camera that snaps a photo in less than a second. As a result, I've gone from scanning one box a week with a conventional scanner to one box in two days with this one.If you're curious what the software and quality of scans looked like, I've attached some photos.Pros- Compatible with Mac; most scanners on Amazon for some reason aren't- Extremely fast scanning; less than a second- Compact and portable- Long return window; I bought this in early October 2021 and have until January 31 2022 to return it- Clear images, especially when black and white mode is enabled- Easy-to-use software that makes large scanning projects a breezeCons- Foot pedal and auto-scan are not reliable; I've had issues with them doing double scans or not scanning at all, resulting in extra time afterward having to go back and fix it. I find that just pressing the "scan" button in the software is ultimately the fastest and most reliable method- This scanner is only good for flat documents; if you scan a book, the scanner will pick up your fingers in the image, and the text/images will be curved- I can't re-arrange the order of scanned pages in the accompanying software; if I accidentally scan something out of order, I will have to export the PDF, then re-arrange the order of the sheets in Acrobat Reader

Document camera was easy to install and use; works well with Macs.

There is a glare on literally all of the published texts that I truly to show my students. Not to mention any whiteboard surface. All my instructional videos have this glare right smack in the middle. I’ve googled how to fix this lighting issue, but there’s nothing I can do bc the cam’s lights are not adjustable. I guess this is considered a cheaper docucam, except I spent a couple hundred bucks and I’m not impressed with the value. It’s doing the job, but for this money, I expected it to be more effective.

Ich habe die Kamera als angeblich gebraucht gekauft. Von den angegebenen Fehlern war nichts zu finden.Nun die Probleme:Das Licht ist nicht abschaltbar. Somit gibt es starke Blendungen bei glatten Papier. Dieser Scanner ist auf keinen Fall zu empfehlen. Es ist einfach nur ärgerlich!!!Man kann an dem Gerät kein USB Verlängerungskabel nutzen. Ich habe schon echt gute gekauft. Die Kamera hat plötzlich Standbilder, oder fängt an zu flackern in allen möglichen Farben. Ist Sie ohne Verlängerung angeschlossen, ist alles Top. Weiter ist sie sehr ruckelig wenn unter der Kamera etwas bewegt wird. Sie stellt auch Alles im umgekehrten Sinn da. Wenn man nach Links arbeiten möchte, muss das Blatt nach rechts bewegt werden. Es lässt sich auch nicht in der Software ändern. Weiter hat diese Kamera auch keinerlei Zoom-Funktionen.Wenn ich das Gerät für den Originalpreis von knapp 160 Euro gekauft hätte, würde ich Sie zurücksenden. Sie ist auf keinen Fall 160 Euro wert. Ich bekam Sie für die Hälfte. Muss nun erst einmal klären ob ich Sie trotzdem zurück schicken kann. Ihr solltet euch nicht täuschen lassen. Sie ist den Originalpreis nicht wert !!! Schade habe mir mehr drunter vorgestellt.Ja, ich konnte die Kamera zurücksenden. Ich würde Sie niemals wieder kaufen!!

I wish I had this very valuable "tool" to use as a second camera weeks and weeks ago! Iam tutoring K-2nd Grade, via Zoom. I borrowed a document camerafrom school. Terrible, not in color, not in real time, just terrible. I then decided toreturn it and buy my own. Meanwhile I did it the old way using an easel with magnets :(I read and researched for several days before choosing my CZUR 800. I cannot say enoughgood things about the quality, the overall its appearance. Even the pad that comes with itis very good quality. It is light weight, not bulky. I set it up simply by plugging it into mydesktop HP monitor. I should tell you that I have a Windows 7. My students, as young asthey are, commented on the clarity and color that they see on their end.I downloaded the CD on my desktop computer quite quickly. I will not be using it as ascanner anytime soon, but as a document camera, I rate it over five stars. I will be recommendingit to my principal and other teachers. We may be returning to our school site where teachers are stillusing their "dinosaur document cameras". I also purchased a 4- year warranty.
