Epson Perfection V300 Photo Color Scanner (Black)
I was a little nervous after reading some of the reviews, especially since I have an Apple laptop. I am so glad that I didn't listen to them. I recieved this item yesterday and I couldn't wait to get started on scanning some of my old pictures. I got it out of the box, installed the software and it was off and running. The install was really easy. I put the pictures on the scanner, pressed the scan button and they popped up on the computer screen. It took me a couple of tries to figure out how close or how far the pictures could be for the scanner to detect that they were different pictures. That is the feature that sold me the scanner. I love that I can put 3-4 regular sized photos on their and it automatically creates seperate files for them. This scanner is honestly worth double the cost, but I am so glad that I didn't have to pay it to get all of the amazing things this scanner has to offer. If you are on the fence about buying this, just do it, you will be so glad that you did!

epson 300 photo scanner
I bought this to scan a great deal of slides. I use this scanner nonstop, from morning to night. It is the best scanner I have ever bought. It works with both xp and vista. It is quiet, a lot of times I don't hear it when it gets done so I have to keep tabs on the screen. I am very happy that it scans like it should, I have had no problems with it. I haven't done negatives yet but I have done pictures and the quality of both the slides and pic's turned out great. It does take longer with higher dpi but I organize in between. I have scanned well over 1500 slides and still going. It doesn't come with a physical direction book, that is on the disk when you load it. I would rather have a book. All in all this is a great scanner and I would recommend it to friends.
Great for scanning film!!
Basically, im rating/reviewing based on the film scanning feature. I've used other Epson scanners for film and the results were not always great. I've used a Plustek scanner, and ofcourse the results are top professional quality. However, after using the Epson V300, I'd say this scanner works just as good as a Plustek scanner. It scans negatives in under a minute, using the professional mode, your able to get accurate color results. Even though the images dont come out as sharp like the Plustek does, I was still very impressed with results. I'll be using this scanner for a very long time. I'm a very happy customer! :)
very good consumer grade scanner
Very high quality output for the money. Construction is only consumer grade, however, so don't plan to bang it around or frequently move it from place to place without consequences. Not the type of scanner you would want in a busy office or other high traffic operation. Perfect though for personal use, and very economical. High quality scans of 35mm negatives, photos, drawings, and objects. Have not tried it with slides yet, but I assume the results will be similar to film. Software is light and useful.
