~2007 ZoomEX
I received the Zoom-EX
about ten years ago. I thought Zoom-EX was
an exciting unit full of potential. Zoom-EX’s size and portability makes it
ideal for smaller spaces. Zoom-EX is a portable table-top CCTV.
The unit is also
capable of scanning text from books or documents to a computer, connection to a
PC via USB 2.0 port. Zoom-EX includes its own software that must be installed.
Upon trying Zoom-EX,
I found the unit
featured out dated software and hardware. The scanning process is a bit slow
and it is difficult to stabilize books or textbooks if you are trying to either
use the unit as a CCTV or to scan material.
While testing Zoom-EX I noticed the camera and stand to be a little
flimsy.
In other words,
it is stable when set up on a table. However, while flipping pages, holding
reading material in place and reading a display screen, it is quite possible
one may mistakenly knock the Zoom-EX unit right over mid use.
Otherwise Zoom-EX is a very good portable ideal for smaller
work spaces. The unit could benefit from both hardware and software
upgrades.
