ION Audio SLIDES 2 PC Brings Old Memories Back to Life

  September 18th, 2008



At some point in our lives, we might have come across at least a box of slides or negatives that are of precious value to our families. A problem arises when we want to preserve the memories digitally. The real question is figuring out the best method to do so that easy on our wallets. ION Audio - traditionally known as a company that designs USB turntables - has unveiled a $100 35mm slide and film scanner to come to our rescue.

Known as SLIDES 2 PC, the USB-powered gadget lets you work your way through a sheet of negatives or a carousel of slides. Its five-megapixel scanner with a four-glass optic element won't give you the results of a professional counterpart but it get the job done in a fraction of the time and money. The unit comes built-in with exposure control and color correction basically minimizes post-scan touchup procedures. At such price, the SLIDES 2 PC isn't that bad to bring old pictures back to life.
