A compact, a film scanner and a pocket printer
The PIXPRO FZ45 runs on AA batteries with a 4× optical zoom. The Slide N Scan digitizes 135, 110 and 126 film with a 5 in screen. The Step prints 2 × 3 in sticky-back photos without ink.
The Slide N Scan and the Step each have well over 12,000 ratings on Amazon.com.
These are simple, inexpensive products. The FZ45’s small sensor struggles indoors; the scanner’s megapixel figure is a file size more than detail.
The Magnasonic FS71 adds Super 8 negatives for less; the Liene M100 prints 4 × 6.
