This one is one of the ones I Own and does a Nice job. None of these smaller ones are going to give you the ability to print a poster size but that are great for digitizing  and being able to enjoy your pictures on your phone, laptop or computer. If you want to print them they look great up to 8x10 or a little bigger. very easy to use.
