Worked well for progressing through powerpoint slides

Works well with both the PC and the Macs at my schools. I don't know what any of the buttons do besides the right and left button, but all I needed was a powerpoint slide changer, so this suited my needs well.

I bought the device to use for presentations and was thankful I did not read the reviews here until after I purchased it. The device actually does click on embedded links in my slides and opens the web page by pressing the top button. Pressing the button a second time will take you back to the presentation. So worth the $$$$,

The FS-02 5MP Slide Scanner worked out great!  Slides were vibrant and clear. Transferred over 1,000 slides dating back to 1975. It did take a while because I could only load four slides at a time. From the computer I can photo shop any photo to edit or change color or back ground. If I went to a professional to transfer the slides, it would have cost me 100% more.

I don't think I'm quite ready to release my death grip on my old MS Office, but either one is fine. I'm more comfortable with my old office suite because I am familiar with it. On the other hand, this can do most of the same things and has a few little bells and whistles to play with such as additional backgrounds for powerpoint presentations. You can make ppt presentations using this, you just have to change the mode.

Not sure why they need such a large box for 3 flimsy little CD's but I guess it makes it look more impressive.

The clipart disk is cool but I have a major nit with it. Their descriptions are nonexistent. So you have to open each one to see what it is for example WP03390 is a drawing of a wine bottle and WP03399 is a wine glass and WP03411 is a pitcher and lemonade glass. It would be much more helpful if the descriptions said as much so I didn't have to waste time flipping through each one and renaming them.

I went through a shoebox of slides and found some gems that were scanned and saved for posterity.  The F2D performed as advertised and quickly scanned the slides with beautiful results.  My only issue was the somewhat tight slide frame.  Some slides were just a bit to large and were
very hard to push through.  Sometimes rotating the slide to a sideways view worked.  Overall, the scanner was a very useful tool for
slide scanning and I am very pleased with the results.

Between my and my father's 35MM slides, there are between 8-10,000 slides. Even at discount prices, having them converted to digital would put me in the poor house! I have begun using the ION Film 2 SD Film and Slide Scanner in conjunction with my Mac where iphoto and Photoshop Elements are installed. I am not a computer whiz so the ease and speed of making doing the scans and transferring  them in batches to the computer was a relief. In Photoshop I was able to enhance color and crop areas where the originals had deteriorated since the early 50's. So far, it is fair to say that this is a quality product at a fair price. This is the first time that I have felt strongly enough about a product to write a review. grandpa, Corning, NY

Does a great job letting one see details of many slides being archived. The projection light does a fine job of color and balance.

This product worked well and I was able to convert all of my old slides to digital images. I would recommend it.

Worked fine for my application.  My steel / glass desk had 12" slides that were broken from being popped loose when the gas strut in a computer chair lifted popped them loose.  Since the desk's slides had a custom hole pattern, I had to drill some holes (figured that this would be the case after looking at the Shop Fox spec sheet".  I opted to drill the desk rails and keyboard tray, in case I ever have to replace them again.  Problem solved!

Several months ago I had agreed to present a program (medically related) to a civic group meeting.  Since this was to be a power point presentation, I wanted to present in such a manner as to resemble one of the professional presentations I often attend for CEU --- thinking this would be visually more appealing to the group and help me in that providing the information in a more concise and visually pleasing format.  I needed a remote device that would allow me to advance each of the slides of the power point presentation with me standing somewhat close to the PC but not wanting to have to be there at the PC or have someone else there actually hitting the enter or next key ---- I found this little device on Amazon and looked up some of the specs and compared it to some of the others found as well - and decided to give this one a try.  It's great! --- small in hand size - the wireless part worked beautifully and really liked the ability to switch it from advance/reverse/etc and the mouse if I wanted it ---- I was about 12-15 feet from the PC but that didn't seem to make any difference as to how well the device worked --- I did have to get used to the size and the size of the buttons on it since my hand is a little larger -- but that was easily done.  The laser was also of benefit in pointing out particular areas on the slides that I wanted to add emphasis to --- would like to have had a little larger 'red dot' --- but otherwise that also performed beautifully.  Am I glad I tried/ordered this one?  Yes -- and would recommend it as well.

Nice little viewer to see slides. I use to this to see if the slide is one I need to scan. Works great.

I have many slides that I needed to scan into my computer.  They were quite old and some were warped.  This device allowed me to use my digital camera with high resolution to (take pictures) of the slides.  The autofocus on the camera compensated for the warped slides which my scanner did not do.  The supplied filter adapter ring fit perfectly to my camera.  This is a nice low cost option that provides excellent quality for digitizing slides. I would highly recommend it!  It is easy to use.  It is just a mechanical holder that allows the zoom on my camera to focus and frame the slide.  All the various settings on my digital camera provide the optical quality for copying the slide.

I ended up feeding one slide at a time because the multi feed feature seems to jam up. It may be because my slides are 40 years old though. The software was very good. It had a lot of nice features. It was really slow on my PC though and I have a Photo Shop program with all the same features, so I just loaded all my slides one at a time, and then used my Photo Shop program to edit them. It went pretty quick once I got a rhythm going. I'm  happy with it. I got about 300 slides copied into my PC in a couple of hours.

It was a lengthy and important Powerpoint presentation before a group where professionalism was critical.  The Kensington Wireless Presenter worked beautifully when everything else seemed to have glitches. Not only did it work perfectly for me, others were pitching their clickers and laser lights aside and borrowing mine to use.  It was compatible  with many brands of laptops including a Chromebook. I was very pleased with its performance.

This scanner has done a great job converting my parents' slides to digital images.  It does pick up dust easily, but is not hard to clean with the included cleaner wand.  I can only do 25 slides at once, then I have to move them off the scanner storage onto my own disk.  I tried going direct to computer and using a usb card but couldn't get those to work.  The 25 slide limitation has been fine for most sets, except for the ones my parents stored in the projector, those I had to break into 4 groups.  I do wish the viewer window was bigger, or that I could zoom in, as I sometimes don't find out until viewing on a computer screen that I scanned a slide backwards.  It's easy to fix with the scanner if you know you've done it - there are flip, reverse and turn options.  Well worth the cost!

Needed something that would work with my Surface RT. I picked the Surface RT to just use for power point presentations. The RT picked this up and connected with no issue. It does feel like a bit of lag in Power Point to where there is a delay from hitting the button and the slide changing.

The buttons are a bit to flat for my liking but its still easy to find the button you need. The laser shows up well and the stylus bottom is nice. It comes with a nice case and looks pretty slick over all. It can also double as a media controller which can be pretty handy.

Once I figured out how to use this, it worked just great.  The directions could be more user friendly.  I had to play with the buttons and pretty much figure out which settings I needed, but it scanned my slides I inherited, which is what I wanted to do.
