While this BERTL report concentrates specifically on an individual device and is designed to pro-
vide the reader with an independent perspective on its relative strengths, weaknesses and value 
proposition, the decision to buy, or not to buy, is not always “device-specific.” The brand behind 
the device and how it is perceived in the marketplace is also extremely important. This is where 
BERTL Brand Surveys come into play.   
 
BERTL speaks to product buyers on a regular basis.  In addition, BERTL conducts periodic sur-
veys of the digital imaging marketplace.  The valuable feedback we receive from buyers and prod-
uct resellers is incorporated into our reports, in order to provide our subscribers with a perspective 
on the manufacturer behind the device.   
 
The table below shows feedback received in BERTL’s latest survey of this manufacturer’s  
product(s). Note:  Survey results change over time—the data level for this survey is shown at top.
