Kodak NUSCAN Q500 5MP document scanner

The Kodak NUSCAN Q500 is a compact document camera designed for teachers, office workers and home users who need to capture A4 pages or small objects quickly. It connects through a single USB 2.0 cable and draws power from the host computer, so no external adapter is required. The device runs on Windows 10 down to XP and saves still images as JPEG files.

Fold-flat design with LED illumination

When opened the unit measures 260 x 80 x 200 mm and weighs 1.54 lbs; folded it drops to 260 x 80 x 80 mm for easy storage in a drawer or bag. A built-in LED light provides even illumination across the 297 x 210 mm shooting area, and the fixed-focus CMOS sensor removes the need for manual focus adjustments. Auto white balance keeps colours consistent under varying room lighting.

5 megapixel CMOS sensor captures 2592 x 1944 stills

The image sensor delivers a maximum optical resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels and can capture a frame in roughly one second. Output formats include JPEG for photos and DOC, PDF, XLS or TXT for documents, while video can be recorded in AVI, MP4, FLV or WMV. Buyers who need higher resolution, wireless connectivity or macOS support should look elsewhere.
