My question is: How big are the individual finished files? How many MB per image? Can anyone advise me?

As with any photo,the subject matter will determine the overall size of the finished image. I scanned over 500 of my fathers 35mm slides taken from the 50s -70s. I then picked 10 different slides of varying subjects from landscapes to profiles and close ups. Those 10 averaged out to 383 KB not MB. I then calculated the entire finished scanned files and the overall size of each file averaged 408 KB. The unit was a perfect purchase for my needs, especially for the cost.Hope this helps.Mr H

they will be the same size as the pic would have if taken using photo film rather that slide film.

I'm not clear what you are asking. The length of the files, how wide, or something else. Please clarify.

The frame comes with an 8 GB USB drive. JPEG's don't take a lot of space, so it would take hundreds if not thousands of image files to fill it up.

I scanned a 4x6 photo at 600 dpi and saved it as a jpeg. The file size is 3 mg. Hope that helps

I haven't used it for awhile, so my memory is a little hazy. I plugged it in to a port on the front of my computer. I was scanning slides. I chose "USB Connect" from the start menu. The Omni saved the images (I think it has the capacity to save some images without a card) and it was transferred directly to my computer with a message that said "open folder to view files." I clicked on that to open the file and there was another file in it that said "DCIM" which I opened and there was my image. I copied it to a file in "my Pictures." Using a Memory Card in the Omni Scan is good because it allows more images to be saved and then transferred to the computer. I then printed out the images I wanted. Hope this helps.

Just for kicks and grins I scanned negatives and slides at the maximum resolution and I estimate the process took about 10-15 per. I also found out that scanning at the highest resolution created files so large (some as big as 600MB) that even though I have a fairly high performance PC, (Core i7, 12GB of RAM), the files were so big I couldn't open them. I dropped down to around 2400-4800 DPI and found the files created about 1.2MB or so. I also scanned files on my MBP with 4GB of RAM and it also created files too large to open and in a few cases it even crashed. I decided the 4800 DPI range was more than sufficient for scanning for my purposes which is to burn all these treasured slides and negatives to disk and give them to family so they can enjoy them too. If you are a professional photographer or designer and you need the max resolution you will need a box with the highest performing hardware you can buy and that will be commensurate with the price. Bottom line: Test various resolutions and see what works for your purposes. I read MANY of the reviews of this scanner before I bought it and decided it would work perform the job I needed it to do and it has performed admirably.

Can I play back? I record and then listen to it for my minutes of the meeting. Does that answer your question? It is for a non-profit group and I keep it as our permanent record though the file size is huge; I want to say around 128 megabytes. It works great. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I loaded about 125 photos at full resolution(up to 20mb/picture) and the frame worked flawlessly. Then I repressed the same photos to reduce their size and to see if there would be any noticeable difference. There was no apparent difference. It continued to work flawlessly and it displayed all of the photos that I loaded. I expect it can (and will) store and display several thousand images with the 4GB thumb drive but I haven't load that much yet. I suggest that you try fewer images and/or reduce the resolution of the images. Consider the size of the library that you have loaded. Other than that I have no more suggestions.

geez you all are so ignorant. the actual space is 64GB but a filesystem is needed to keep track of the files on the disk. how else do you expect it to work without a filesystem?

It came formatted in FAT32, I reformatted it to NTFS as I use large image files on it and can not use FAT32 due to the file size limitation of 4GB for a single file.

Thanks, I'll look into how that is done. Also, can a flashdrive handle a program this large or only just files?

I know they are small like 1 1/2 x 2 if that helps you get approximately ready. It is at my Dad's and he loves it. They send you templates that I used to cut up the photos. One drawback we found was if the phone line goes out you have to re-program...no back up.

I have been quite happy with the photo scanning. Of course the final result will be determined by the matrix and a high quality scan can create huge file depending on the image size.

Hi Linda! It would depend on a few factors such as the sizes and resolutions of the images. The smaller the photos, the more photos that can be stored! I would think you should be able to put several hundred if you want a guess. :)

Thank you.Basically, the problem I got is the pause between the clips when I write them to a DVD. So, I joined them (and the pause problom is solved) and tried to fit it to a 4.7 GB (which apparently holds 4.38GB data). And if the total size is less than 4.38GB, I could write the DVD. Else, I had to separate the single cip (which I joined before) and remove some of the clips and see how many are getting fit in 4.38GB. I think I could write it. Of course, I have to write a second DVD for rest of the clips. Thank you

Wow, at 2terrabyte why is that even an issue?? I have no idea.. Just use a huge external hard drive and it should be almost limitless. All I know is that 2tb seems like plenty, at least for me. In four years of many photos, I didn't even fill 250gig on my laptop that was my main computer at the time. I do like this all in one, tho it isn't quite as fast as I had hoped it would be. And I prefer the Windows seven side to the childish eight side. Love the large screen. Overall..I would recommend it..the storage should be plenty especially for a home computer.

There is 32GB (I am answering this from memory) of internal memory, not all of which is available to store images. It can take a SD, SDHC, or an Extended SD(XC?) (>32GB).
