Update: I was somewhat disappointed about the zoom function. As it turns out, you don't really need it. By using some of the software functions, you can get the pages at the level you wish. The support was very good to help me get to this point.I looked at several products. Having used the product to scan several textbooks of various sizes, I have to say this brand is probably your best bet. They have several products of various price ranges. I bought the ET16 Plus because of the auto scan function. It actually work better than described. After you turn the page, if the scanner detects motion, it seems to delay until there is no motion for a few seconds. This is really great when you have two pages that are stuck.So, I love the product and would highly recommend it if you have lots of books to scan.I have lots of textbooks that I must carry around when teaching. I bought this product because I wanted to make life easier when traveling.The product is well made. I was under the impression that it was a US product but it is a Chinese product. The software works very well. It is pretty easy to scan a 500 page book. The post processing takes a little time as can be expected with a searchable pdf file. It is easy to make corrections. Lots of intuitive features.It takes a while to get started if you are careful as I am. The startup documentations needs to be a bit more detailed. The videos are not that good as the lady speaks with a Chinese accent and very fast and low at times, so you have to listen very carefully. Good step by step documentation would be helpful.The user interface is not the same as what is seen in the video as the software is probably more current. But with a little trial and error, the startup productive time is fast.I just scanned my first book. I am not clear how I would insert a page if I missed one when turning the page.Support is from China. They did an auto response, giving 48 hrs because of a large volume of calls. Why would they have a large volume of support calls if the product is good and easy to use? I guess it is because they are in China and there is a time difference. Naturally, you can't wait 48 hrs if you need a problem solved. So some US support is needed.So far I like the product. I think it works well with great correction features. With a little playing around I think it would be very fast to scan a book but not 7 minutes. It takes time to get things right and keep things going as the book does move a bit.The auto-scan feature is very valuable. It works well, detecting page movement. It is fast but movement can duplicate a scan. No problem because it is easy to delete duplicates.Very nice, Apple-like packaging.Tony

Before my review, I need to say I tried almost "EVERYTHING" to scan books at archives, and libraries and was always dissapointed in the results to some degree. Either the images were good but took forever to take (limiting my ability to get the information before they closed and I had to move on), or the quick and cheap methods that sadly left the results almost unreadable at times.Ive tried the scanning apps for smart phones, ad hoc techniques with a high end Sony Camera, tripod, and lights with page weights, you name it I tried it. I just wanted something at home and on visits to archives to be able to scan large sections of books and important odd sized documents that would be good enough to put in a presentation or examine for fine details later on.The CZUR ET16-P professional scanner exceeded my expectations. First, it is portable, in that I have modified a Pelican case to be able to take it with me like carry on luggage anywhere in the world. Next, the curvature correction is phenominal and fast! Pages that normally would curve and distort on other systems are not only flattened, but without distortion that I can see. I can have it automatically conduct OCR so information is searchable and editable, etc.Convenience in operation. Check this out: It has multiple "trigger" mechanisms to match your style of operation. A sewing machine type foot pedal if you work with your hands full, a separate push button so an associate can push if needed, or an on the unit button. It's that example of thoughtfulness in the design that makes this the clear choice. The documents are consolidated easily into formats I wish, like a single PDF or individual images, editing and enhancing is a breeze, and the interface: Simply plug the USB into your laptop and away you scan!I might buy one just to have a spare, as I can't see using another scanning mechanism after using this one.

It does the job. Although you have other options if you get creative such as your phone on a tripod and stuff like that, but this thing is dedicated for the job.
