The SmartPhoto P60 makes it easy to turn your 6x4-inch photographs into digital files.

The scanner needs no warm up time or any complicated software and has a simple pop-up user interface to give control over the brightness and contrast levels of and select your favourite location on your PC to save the scanned images. This, together with its simple one-button operation, makes the SmartPhoto P60 very easy to use and suitable for users with limited PC skills.
On top of its simple operation, the scanner is powered through its USB cable, so there is no need to be near a power supply. And with its compact size it is easily portable for use in remote locations or on the move.
