How do you load photos? Will I have to open the lid for every photo?

You have to open the lid to load each photo. The photo has to be placed in the proper position on the glass, according to the size of the photo being copied, and close the lid. It only takes a split second to scan the picture. I believe it actually takes a digital picture instead of a light scanning the picture.

The unit comes with plastic frames that slide into the unit for scanning. The photo must be a size that fits in the frame. The resulting quality is not as good as the digital file that I get from scanning photos on my printer/scanner.

Actually having the same problem so I don't know. I have not gotten around to reloading from scratch. I just loaded pics from a flash drive and turn the device on and off manually. Works fine that way.

I don't know if it will or not, but I sent mine back almost immediately. Terrible - it would load 2-3 pictures and then stop. You would pull it out and start the process over and then the same thing again. Very frustrating.

Insert card into camera.w/ camera set to view pictures, press menu button. arrow down to the icon of the little wrench (that's setup). Arrow down/thru 5 pages til you see format. it will say "delete all data?" (make sure there are no pictures on the card you want to keep or they will be gone once you hit yes. Hope that helps. If you have any ?? lmk As I also have this camera.

Not sure on that one. I try to rotate my pics and save how I want before loading onto memory disk for frame. Sorry.

I bought one of those for a hobby. I have pictures of favorite, handsome celebrity and use that container for the photos that are 4 x 6 size. Can store up to 100 4 x 6 photos in each little container.

Yah that's correct. This varies quite a bit though. If you only have 5 photos to load it's a lot faster than if you have 50 photos. I wouldn't consider this device lightning fast by any means but it does allow you to access the card without having to plug it into a computer which is handy in it's own right.

Thanks Jessica. I'm not very good at setting up computers, etc. so I'm a little afraid of scanning but at the same time, I do want to get rid of all the photo albums onto DVD's. Do you think I'll have a lot of trouble getting up and running?

You load the slides or negatives and manually push the carrier through. Each image you want to save requires a push of the Save button on top. Works well.

thanks for the input .....I had gone ahead and ordered the Scan-Snap but had decided to return it before it even arrived. Your response just made me know that I made the right decision. My plan now is to sort through all those photos and send the best of the lot to a company such as Best Photo Scanning and let them preserve them on discs for me.

no, it will ask you if you want to download pictures that have already been loaded. You can select the images to be downloaded

The RAW files don't seem to get transfered in the app, and I'm not sure if you can even use them on the phone. I shoot RAW+JPG. It takes a few seconds per photo to download to phone, but it goes in a directory burred pretty deep. So then they have to be moved where you want them like the camera folder.

Yes! It is real easy to load, and the pictures are very good. I think even better than our old Polaroid. We are very happy!
