MicroBoards CopyWriter Pro 1652

Advantages: Produces a really good quality picture
Disadvantages: Expensive and sometimes struggles in low light conditions

...The Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 is an excellent webcam that produces a really crisp and clear picture at the other end. The camera is fairly expensive but worth the cost. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Whats in the box- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The webcam An instillation CD Instruction manual When your ready to install the software, dont do it from the CD, as several other reviews have commented on problems with the CD, instead go to the logitech website and download it from there.

Advantages: no
Disadvantages: ok

...the I needed to go away and get a VGA cable to hook it up and that's what I did. Since I have alot of things around my TV (lots of computers things and electricity) I didnt want any sort of crosstalk (disturbance on the cable from other electrical devices- its quite rare now but not unheard of) I made sure that i got a double shielded wire, the best one of these that i could find was the Belkin PRO series.

Advantages: Professional A2 printing for under £1000.
Disadvantages: Large size, but not compared to other A2 printers

The black & white prints from this printer are as good as I could get spending hours in the darkroom. The quality is amazing. Colour is great too, especially from Adobe 1998 RGB files. The output closely matches my monitor using standard printing profiles. The prints should last at least as long as those from a photographic lab and the quality far outshines anything I got back from my pro lab. You can print borderless prints from 7"x5" up to A2, although I find it more economical to print smaller prints together on a single sheet of paper and then trim them later. Ink cartridges are around £35 for 80ml of ink, this works out far cheaper than the cartridges... Read review
