This is one of our favorite scanners because it has great ergonomics, an aggressive scan engine, it's very durable and it has a rasterizing laser. This scanner has great ergonomics because it is easy to pick up without regripping, it also has a two finger trigger and it is very light weight and well balanced. The scanner also has a unique rasterizing option in which it has a set beam for a set amount of time and then it begins to rasterize if it doesn't pick up a read.

While in the stand this scanner is also very aggressive in that you'll start with a steady bar and if it doesn't read anything it will begin to rasterize. It is also very fast.
