I've scanned in some old 35mm slides with outstanding results.
I did consider an 'all in one' printer, but my Epson photo printer does a good job and I would require a printer that could print good quality photos, print on DVD's and scan slides and negatives.






How good can be judged by the triviality of my one grumble! After doing a preview, you mark out the area to be scanned. On the old scanner, a preview wiped this mark-out. On this one, you have to click a button to start over, which is what I at least normally want to do.





You must however download the Win 8 (64 bit ) drivers from the Epson site to get it to work. These are about 60MB in size.
Excellent resolution.
Very good results with old B&W Negatives, which it converts into positive images, also with colour slides.
Faithful colour reproduction.
The slide & photo scanning software is a bit quirky though, although it can be made to function properly. It doesn't either reload your last used settings.
Manual, as is always the case nowadays is pretty basic.

I have found a better solution to converting negatives into digital images now. It is much better to use a lightbox and take a picture of the negative with a digital camera and macro lens, and convert the negative to a positive on the computer. Depending on the resolution of the camera you can make very sharp pictures instantly.
I do not recommend this for scanning negatives if you already have a DSLR and lens that can focus close enough.


All this said, the software is a bit dated looking and clunky, some of the alert boxes even come up in Japanese. This isn't uncommon with software from Japanese firms though - their expertise is in hardware and they always seem years behind with slick GUIs etc. I went for the Epson as the other option in the price bracket was Canon and i'd therefore had the same kind of problems with their software anyway. Other reason for going Epson was my old canon n1220u still works perfectly, but they stopped making drivers for it (32 bit win7 yes but 64 bit no). I therefore wanted to take my trade elsewhere as a protest at that.
It gets 3 stars as it's much bigger than I expected and the big plug in transformer seems OTT for a low energy device - I miss that about the Canon, with the lide range being powered by the single USB cable. Also the results, although excellent are not a massive step up from my 10 year old Canon. When you think of how tech has moved on in that time, I was really hoping for something with a bit more wow. If you blow the results up in Photoshop, some detail is lost, even on pretty high res scans, and there is still a bit of colour cast that needs correction. Anyway, the CCD/LED Canon model 700F, which is the main competitor here , is 2 years old now, so I guess until they update that model, this still remains the best, up-to-date tech for under





I've not yet had a chance to use it a lot, but the main reason I bought it was to transfer slides into digital format, which it does very well so I'm happy.
