I bought this product for my wife to replace an old scanner. The pre-scan time is lightning fast. The quality of the scans are HUGE and clean. We have started to scan some negatives and they are some what slower but the quality is better then any picture can scan in. It is the best scanner I have seen on the market and I would recommend it to anyone. Also it comes with Adobe Photoshop Elements 4. That software runs for $99 by it's self. This scanner is well worth the money.

Easy to use, good resolution and color. Best feature is the auto-crop, especially when you are scanning several pictures - saves a lot of time. I don't use the photo editing software that came with it, so I can't comment on that. Great buy.

I bought my LIDE35 at Fry's Electronics for under $40. I needed a scanner in a hurry since my last Paperport had died. The LIDE35 installed and worked with no problems. The quality of my first scan was much better than any done with the Paperport.I bought this unit because it was cheap and small. It is compact enough to travel with a laptop. USB power means you don't have the weight, mess, and need for an outlet that a wallwart powered scanner has. This is a big plus if you are traveling. Computer bags seem to grow in size and weight when you are running across Ohare airport tryin to catch a plane on the other side of the terminal. Wallwarts require power strips and make a mess in hotel rooms.The LIDE technology looks good to me. I have had 4 previous scanners. They all died because the CCFT lamp went South after a year of moderate use. LEDs should last much longer. I found the color quality and balance of LIDE better than the CCFT scanners I had used. It is really nice to be rid of the lamp warmup warnings and delays.Buttons on the front are more of a problem than a feature for me. I ususally operate scanners through the scanner control software, and edit with photoshop. Accidentally hitting a button wastes more time than using it for it's intended purpose ever saved. I would actually pay a few bucks more to have a scanner that did't have buttons.Other things that would improve the LIDE35 are:Make it even thinner and lighter.A lighter thinner USB connection cable. Several aftermarket cables are more compact.Over all I feel this was a bargain. It works better than any other scanner I've had and will probably last longer since there is no CFFT. Canon did a good job on the LIDE 35.

This little scanner works well enough for the price. The only gripe I have is that at first I couldn't get it to work until a techno-person asked if I had turned the switch on the bottom from "lock" to "unlock". What switch? I asked. Oh, it's there, all right, but nowhere in the instructions could I find reference to a lock/unlock switch; and if the reference IS there, it's certainly well-hidden.Now maybe people who have grown up with computers know enough to look for such things...but believe it or not, some of us are over thirty! So, this little gizmo gets only four stars...and I think I'm being generous at that.Hint to instruction-writing geeks the world over: DON'T ASSUME THAT "EVERYONE KNOWS 'THAT'"! Not all of us do.

The scanner does the job I need it to do. The pictures turn out nice. The only drawback is the software program to make pictures better is not that great. Otherwise, for the price, good purchase.

Product was as advertised. Pretty quick on scanning and easy editing software to master. No problem on installation, either hardware or software. I had it up and running in about 10 minutes. I used this machine to duplicate old family photos. I prefer to use Photoshop for final editing, however, but that's just me. I am a Mac user.

I bought this scanner to scan in about 150 old black and white family photos, and they all came out very nicely. I scanned only a handful of color pictures, and they were fine as well.Some experiences I had using the scanner:- smaller pictures end up getting a better final resolution- the quality is great for pictures, but only average for text; for example newspaper articles don't scan well enough to allow you to read smaller text- I was able to scan aout 30 pictures in an hour- scanning multiple photos is usually easy: you don't have to crop a big image into the individual photos because the scanning software figures out the picture boundaries. However, occasionally the picture boundary detection stuff messes up and the scanner detects 1 fewer picture than was in the scanner, forcing you to rescanFor some old polaroids, the scanned picture was clearer and brighter than the polaroid. it brought out the picture inan amazing way.

I have been buying Canon products lately -- camera, printer, photo paper, and now this printer. Canon has yet to let me down. I'm amazed at the scan quality this scanner produces! I bought it simply so I could share wedding book and magazine photos with my mother who lives several hundred miles away, but I think I'm going to be preserving my old 35mm shots using the CanoScan LiDE 25. The price was excellent, installation was a breeze, power is supplied via the USB cable, and the software is incredibly user-friendly. I have yet to look at a manual and I'm already scanning images beautifully! It does take a while (45 seconds to a minute, give or take a few seconds) for things to scan. If you're on a deadline, this may not be the right equipment for the job. For day-to-day home use, this scanner can't be beat! Also, kudos to Amazon.com and UPS, from whom I always receive stellar service! My scanner was shipped and received in practically no time at all! I think it was a two business day turn-around from order to receipt, and with FREE SHIPPING!

The Canon 5000F scanner provides high quality scans at a reasonable price. Being a professional photographer and newspaper cartoonist for 15 years, I've worked with numerous scanner models ranging from HP and Epson to even Microtek units. Yet, for the price, Canon outperforms them all with a "print-perfect" optical resolution of 2400x4800 dpi. I mostly use the scanner for digitalizing my artwork at a resolution of 1200dpi at an output scale of 100%. The scans appear crisp and clear with well-defined gray tones and contrast levels. Given the ease of the scanning software, it's simple to make a slight adjustment during the pre-scan to change the contrast and brightness to fit your needs. Also, the Canon 5000F is a well-built unit. All low-priced scanners consist of a plastic body for weight purposes, however, the Canon 5000F employs a solid and sturdy drive unit to guide the movement of the lamp carriage.I previously bought the HP Scanjet 3970 because of its attractive price, but I also quickly discover its cheap construction, worthless 3-month warranty and its loose connections. Thankfully, I was able to return it for a refund.At work, I used an Epson 2400 scanner, a comparable unit, that fell apart from the hinges inward. The Epson 2400 could not reproduce the color of photographs as naturally as the Canon 5000F. When scanning grayscale images, the Epson 2400 also could not detect gray tones as well as the Canon unit. The Canon 5000F wonderfully reproduces the color of photographs and slides when I scan images to be posted on the web. However, for scanning negatives or slides, I use a film scanner to achieve the best results. When scanning negatives on a flatbed scanner, the machine must scan the images at a higher resolution than you intend to print. For example, scanning at 2400dpi will magnify the negative image and allow for decent printing at 600-1200dpi. For beginners or professionals, the Canon 5000F provides excellent results at a reasonable price. There's very little difference in scanning speeds when a person scans an image at high resolutions, because we're talking about an image file 40MB or bigger. I haven't seen where the flimsy HP or Epson models scanned any faster than the Canon models. After all, if you want quality, be patient. It might take 1-2 minutes for a 2400dpi scan of a picture, but you should be pleased with the results.For the best color reproduction, clarity and construction, I highly recommend the Canon 5000F.Note: The Canon LiDE series of slim scanners also provide decent results, but they use a different method of scanning than the Canon 5000F in order to make the scanner 1.5 inches tall. The Canon LiDE series use LEDs for the light source and a contact image sensor (CIS) to capture the scanned image. This system, given the material you're scanning, might not provide you with the color tones you're seeking in order to print large photographs. Instead, the Canon 5000F uses the traditional cold cathode lamp as the light source and a CCD as the scanner element which still provides the best color and grayscale reproduction. Enjoy!

Unfortunately, this scanner did not work. I got a continual error message of "twain error", which Canon support could not fix. Therefore, I'm out my $50. All I was shooting for was to scan in some old family pictures; then I wouldn't even need it any more. Everything else on my computer always works perfectly. I'll find another way.

This was a nice scanner until it died. It did a decent job scanning color print photos once I got the right settings. Unfortunately, it stopped working exactly one year after I purchased it. This was on a Sunday, no telephone tech support from Canon on Sundays. I called them the next day and spent almost an hour on the phone to confirm the scanner was dead. Then I was told that I was one day out of warranty, tough luck, thank you for purchasing Canon products. They would not budge at all. For this scanner, Canon gets 2 stars: 4 for actual performance, 3 for the driver software, and zero stars for durability and customer service. Hopefully Epson will be better.

You already have a printer, you have the fax machine, you just need a scanner. Of course there are these new all in one packages you can buy these days but they are costly and bulky.Here you have a simple flat bed scanner that is affordable, and has the features to copy, scan, email, even edit what you scan as well. It's powered through the USB cable so no need to worry about plugs. The scans come out great and so do the copies. The speed couldn't be any faster which is of course a plus. The scanner fits nicely just about anywhere, or can be easily stored if not used frequently.Total quality, and a great buy especially for the price as well. Worth picking up.

I originally bought it just for the software [Adobe Photoelements 2.0].I have seen usb bus complaints by windows XP when I plugged in non-powered hub with my jumpdrive trio, so I didn't think XP and/or the PC itself, provided very much usb power. But this little scanner does just fine with it's only power source being the usb bus.The software install was one of the most informative I've ever done. It lets you know where you are at in the process.It starts out saying that there are like 8 programs left to install, and then the countdown just keeps going, automatically.You don't have to go hunting for the install buttons for each and every single program. It's setup to auto install things one after another.You simply say Yes or No, to each program and/or component.Scanner operation is smooth and quiet. It's hard to get used to NOT hearing the scan head movements.So far, so good.Two thumbs up !

The last scanner I bought was in 1997. Boy has technology evolved! Back then I had to pre-scan, adjust scan area, scan, and then save. Now all that process has been eliminated by a push of a button! One touch and this scanner scans, auto-crops, and saves automatically! This scanner can detect what part of the flatbed your photo is located, so it only scans that area and saves the photo without having to specify scan area. Neat! Plus this scanner is so thin and small! I am impressed.

Unpacked this great scanner out of the box and had it working in minutes. It is incredibly slim (about 1.5 inches) and light, but one of the great benefits is that it takes power from the USB port and does not require an external power source. Instead of having a large lamp on board the scanner uses LEDs as the light source. Not only does this reduce the power consumption, but my guess is that they will last longer than normal bulbs. (Disclaimer here...the reason we bought the Canon was that the HP bulb burned out and the cost of replacement was prohibitive).The software that comes with the scanner is easy to use in basic mode, but gives a number of options at advanced mode that are extremely useful under certain conditions.The programmable buttons work well, with one minor annoyance, that being that to press the button sometimes the scanner slides backwards on the desk. This seems to be due to the strength needed to depress the buttons overcoming the friction of the light scanner on the desk.Scans are excellent. The scanner is fast and accurate. We have used it for generating content for the web, for copying documents and for general document acquisition. I am very pleased with the way the scanner automatically will detect the outline of the documents and make multiple documents scanned at once accurately available as single digital images.All in all I am very impressed with this unit, with the build quality, and with the output.

Be warned - DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCTUnfortunately I can not give this a Zero Star. When purchased new the scanner was faulty, and exhibited poor quality control with particles inside the scanner. It was returned for repair under warranty twice, and finally the main curcuit board was replaced.I was present when the unit was being reassembled after the replacment of the board and was horrified to see the service tech use metholated spirits to clean the underside of the class as the owners manual clearly states not to do this !!!(it has his grubby finger prints all over it from the repair work).Despite spending several thousand dollars on Canon products over the years, I will not be buying another Canon product.Poor quality control and customer services can only be rewarded in this manner.

First. I don't know what the previous reviewer's problem was BUT this scanner works great with Windows XP. I had no difficulty at all with installation.The Canon LiDE 35 is a very compact scanner powered off of the USB port. For my needs it does excellent quality scans including photos though I use it mostly for documents. It also is much faster than my old Visioneer Paperport. The four front panel buttons make it very easy to make a copy to a printer or archive a document by simply push the button and you are done. To save disk space it can save files to Adobe PDF format which most users can take advantage of with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader.The Toolbox makes it easy to configure the various scan operations. The included software is great. For image editing it includes ArcSoft Photo Studio 5.5. I like it because it is very easy to crop an image and then resize. Of course it can do a lot more, but those are the two most important features that I use. For OCR it includes OmniPage SE2.0. I have not used it too much but what I like is that I can scan a document and save it to a .bmp file. Then if I right click the .bmp file and select " convert to OmniPage SE2.0 " it opens the program an starts to convert the file to a text document. It works VERY well and is fast. It usually asks a few questions about the conversion and then I can save to a Word file. This is a great feature to convert old documents into Word files so that they can be edited from there.For the money you can't go wrong buying a Canon LiDE 35 with the performance, small footprint, features, and included software.

While waiting for a good page scanner, I bought the LiDE 35 to use in scanning my receipts for expense reports and client documents. The cover of my scanner is dented and the TSA has mis-packed it a dozen times causing me to worry that it would be damaged but each time I've unlocked it, plugged it into my USB port and begun scanning. I've been very pleased with this scanner and on occasion when I scan photos find that it does a beautiful job there too. I'm impressed with this scanner.

I was always told that HP scanners were the best. So for the post 13 years I have purchased nothing but HP scanners for my Macintoshes. Maybe 10 in all. I have always battled multitudes of incompatibiltity issues, poor performance, and very combersome scanning applications.Frustrated I purched the LiDE 35. This is how a scanner should work. The interfaces with Adobe software (and any other software) is exterely elegant, and the scans are great. Canon software is extremly flexible, so workflow is greatly increased. I coiuld not be more impressed. Thanks, Cannon for an excellent, Mac freindly, product.

M. Urbarger is right! I've been struggling with this for a long time and I finally found the answer! Canon USA is useless for this. Shame on them! Here are the instructions. It's only three steps:Step 1. Remove the 2710 driver from your computer. Start/control panel/add or remove Programs/Canocraft FS.Step 2. Download and install this key program from Adaptec(...)This is an exe file that unzips a bunch of files into a folder. You then hit Start/Run/ and browse for the file "aspiinst.exe". After it's done, re-boot.Step 3. Re-install canocraft software.And it Works! Once again, shame on Canon for not supporting this easy fix.
