Excellent Scanner for Photos and Slides

byfatherjohnaz Feb 9, 2007
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Inexpensive for the quality; good software; fast scanning; quality images; easy set up.
Cons I honestly cannot think of any at this time.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this scanner to replace an Epson Expression 1600 scanner with transparency adapter. That scanner served me 6 years, but started to put colored lines in the scans. To repair it would have cost $480. This Epson Perfection V700 cost me $500 including shipping, so the choice wasn't hard to... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Epson V700 two years ago in order to transform my growing film archive into digital images. My primary purpose was to have a more permanent archival form with easy redundant capacity. After having researched scanners extensively, I settled on the V700. Since I do serious amateur but... Read full review »

The HP 8270 has flaws but gets the job done

bytwofish72 Jan 18, 2008
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros lots of functions, good scan quality
Cons slower than advertised, speed heavily dependent on your computer
Recommended it? Yes

A decision was made at my workplace to digitize all paperwork that was to be archived. In the computer age of today, the fastest way of doing so, is to get a good scanner and turn everything into a PDF document. So far so good. Since the amount of paperwork to be scanned is not overly big, a... Read full review »

Buyer Beware

bygreggfrank Dec 10, 2006
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Marketing lierature looks great. Maybe it would be acceptable if I were scanning photos.
Cons Slow and image quality poor. Not suited for production scanning.
Recommended it? No

I purchased this scanner to scan 2 sided documents for financial record keeping. What a mistake. Forget the speed listed in the marketing specs. If you use the ADF, expect 112-179 seconds per side at 600 DPI. Then, all the images appear very light. I tried all the software included in the package... Read full review »
