Global Great Gadget Giveaway features an Epson do-it-all photo scanner

This morning on my Tech Talk segment on GlobalTV Monday Morning News I showed our third weekly prize for the annual Global Great Gadget Giveaway, an Epson Perfection V550 flatbed scanner. Five lucky winners this week will walk away with this high tech scanner for digitizing old print photos, 35 mm and medium size negatives and as well as slides.

Old pictures from prints, film and slides can be digitized with the Perfection V550. handout

I have been using one for the past few weeks and it’s like discovering faded and dusty pictures and bringing them back to life at the touch of a button. Just in time for the comingholidays share treasured family images.

Unlike smaller film scanners, this flatbed scanner has several modes from easy to professional for digitizing high quality photos, or just small zoomed in views. Using Digital Ice technology you can remove scratches and dust as well as screen textures from old printed photos on silk finish paper.
