Czur ET16 review: Easy-to-use book scanner hindered by weak Mac software

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>Unlike flatbed scanner where documents are placed face-down on a glass bed with a moving scanner element, the Czur ET16 ($399; available on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H2YCN24/)) features a 16-megapixel Sony CMOS HD camera sensor mounted atop an upright 39-centimeter stand. Books, artwork, or even small physical objects are placed underneath the camera on an included black mat, which helps with document edge detection.</p><p>The camera head includes a small 2.4-inch TFT display used to position documents prior to scanning, as well as a built-in lamp with two illumination. This works well for paper with a matte finish, but anything with a glossier surface should be scanned with the built-in lamp off, preferably using an external lighting source positioned at each side for best results.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3192782/input-scanners/czur-et16-review-easy-to-use-book-scanner-hindered-by-weak-mac-software.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
