Editors’ Rating: Excellent
The IRIScan Desk 5 Pro ($299) looks more like an office lamp than a scanner, but don’t let appearances fool you. This is a powerful, highly accurate performer that costs less than many of its competitors. An overhead scanner, the Desk 5 Pro nimbly scans book and magazine spreads, documents, ID and other cards, and some 3D objects. It also scans large areas at a high resolution, making it an easy shoo-in as our Editors’ Choice for overhead scanners.
