Rating:  - A very nice scannerThis was a replacement scanner for an older HP Scanjet. It is a huge improvement! I really like the instant-on feature of the scanning light (it doesn't have to warm up like the HP). The Canon comes with the templates for scanning slides and film, which is a benefit for me. Setup was easy and the twain driver seems to be working with Windows XP just fine. The only criticism I have is the sheer number of software applications that you need to install - the instruction aren't that clear about what the apps are and which ones are required vs. which ones are not. It's best to install everything and then see what you actually use. You can uninstall what you don't want, later. I do miss having a document feeder, but the scans are high quality and relatively quickly done. This scanner prompted me to finally pull out all the 20 and 30 year old slides and start scanning them to digital format. Rating:  - WARNING!This product is highly addictive! I am an amatuer scanner. I have a box of slides and 35mm negatives which I have wanted to digitalize for years. I bought myself an early Christmas present and went to work. It is helping me accomplish everything I hoped for with 35 years of material. The only problem is that I now wake up at 4:30 am every morning and scan until I leave for work. I come home from work and scan until bedtime. It caused me to have to buy an external harddrive for my computer. My wife thinks I have a girlfriend on-line. Other than these minor issues I rate this Canon scanner A++++! Rating: - Very good scannerI needed a scanner to scan slides, my dad had a collection of over 3000 and I was hoping to find an inexpensive solution to view and then print out the image...Very happy with my decision to get this Canon scanner...comes with good software and very easy to use...Only problem I had was trying to get it registered online, called them up on the phone and in 5 minutes was taken care of...I also am able to scan negatives to a positive image, so cool...will use this item for a long time... Rating: - CanoScan 8800F is a winner!I wanted a dedicated scanner to use especially for slides. After scouring to web for comparisons and user ratings I decided to get this one. I was concerned that CanoScan 8800F doesn't utilize ICE 3 technology for scratch and dust removal but rather, uses their own proprietary FARE 3 technology . In the final analysis, Canon probably decided not to pay for the ICE 3 licensing but Canon's FARE 3 technology does do the job very well. In fact, in a side by side comparison, I found, after sifting through endless web pages, that the Canon with FARE 3 rendered a bolder, more eye-catching image than Epson's, which uses ICE 3. I guess it's a matter of aesthetic judgement. I highly recommend this unit based on price, features and most of all...results. Rating: - SatisfiedI'm quite satisfied with my Canon Canoscan 8800F. It works well with 35MM slides, photos, and black & white images. It is quick and easy. |
