Epson Duet 80-Inch Dual Aspect Ratio Projection Screen, Portable 4:3 and 16:9 Aspect Ratio Screen (ELPSC80)

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010


As others have noted, overall this is a well-designed and very portable screen, which is easy to put up quickly (much more so than the typical tripod movie screen). Yes, it does sag, or curl back, at the top, you may lose the top 1 or 2 inches of your image (going out of focus where the screen curls away from the projector) or you can merely reduce image size a little to fit the "flattest" area of the screen. One other complaint I have is that this screen on its basic stand cannot be raised as high as those typical tripod movie screens can--I have had audience comments that peoples' heads were in the way due to the relatively low screen height. I am working on a home-made solution to make the "feet" a bit longer/taller (PVC pipe), or to add optional height to the main stem for some occasions. IF YOU NEED A CARRY BAG: Look at the "On Stage Stands" brand bag available here for about . It's a nicely padded and well-made bag (quality zipper) that fits this screen and its legs. It's a little too big (maybe 6 inches too long) but leaves room for cords or other stuff like my forthcoming extension legs! Really protects the screen and legs well.On-Stage Stands SSB-6500 Speaker Stand Bag

My product was returned by my Post Office due to a mix up of the address. After the seller found out the reason the product was returned they not only sent it again at no cost to me but they also doubled my order to keep me as a satisfied customer. They did not have to do this but I was very grateful.

Epson Perfection V500 Photo Scanner

Thursday, February 18th, 2010


Before purchasing an Epson Perfection V500 Scanner I read only the one star (bad) reviews. As I needed a way to scan 120/220 films, I took the plunge and bought one anyway. Most of the negative reviews seemed to revolve around software issues, particularly the supplied Photoshop Elements program. I have had no problems in this area, although, I already had Photoshop Elements 2.0 in my PC and did not use the supplied program. I have Photoshop Elements 6 in my MacBook Pro, but have not tried using the Epson V500 with that computer and program, yet.
I do, however, have issues with what appears to be the V500's inability to manually crop while scanning films. I am scanning film sizes from ViewMaster chips to 6x9 and everything between. The scanner is very hit-or-miss when scanning the ViewMaster reels, even set to scan 6x9 films. It cuts my reels into segments sometimes through the middle of an image. If I isolated a single film chip, the scanner says it can't find it and won't scan.
The scanner also seems to lack any method for manual focusing, creating problems when laying ViewMaster-style reels directly on the glass and when scanning glass mounted slides. If the scanner is capable of manual cropping when scanning film, and/or can be manually focused, I have not found instructions on how to do these things. The Users Guide is disappointingly limited.
Also, scans fail when scanning at extremely high resolution setting, but I don't know if this is an issue with the scanner or my computer.

V500Scanner
Item was shipped when said, arrived in great shape, Easy to setup and output was fantastic. Used to scan slides and output was fantastic and so easy to use.


Great scanner - lousy software
The scanner itself is sleek and quiet. It fits in a small space which is great. It comes with a couple of 'templates' that allow you to load various size photos and slides for scanning.

But the software is awful, at least on the Mac. It took my MacBook Pro a long time to load the installation app, and then the install hung. I finally got it to work, and the resulting application is very clunky and not very intuitive, even for a guy who has a computer engineering degree.

The ultimate bait and switch was the Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 software that came with it. The disk wouldn't even load on my Mac. When I went to the Adobe website, I discovered that they don't even sell 6 any more - they are on Elements 8 now and barely support 6. The online rep basically told me that I was out of luck. So, I ended up buying 8 for 0 because you need photo editing software if you are going to be scanning a lot of shots with your new scanner.


ezrider review
Great machine. Excellant transfers and great for reproducing old odd size black and white negatives. As usual, the instructions are worthless. A lot of trial and error to figure it out.


Incredible Negative Scanning
I purchased this scanner specifically for scnaning of medium format negatives 2.25 x 2.25. I am totally blown away by the quality of the scans. I had previously purchase an HP Scanner for the same negatives, and was severly disappointed in the quality. The Digital ICE technology seemed too good to be true, thus I was skeptical of it, but be assured it does exactly was it says, and it does deliver. I have only scanned a few printed pictures with the scanner, and found the results to be only average.

Epson T054320 Magenta Ink Cartridge

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010


I believe in competition but I tried a refilled cartridge and although the quality was fine it didn't last as long. Weighing that against the slightly lower price of the refills I think the originals are the way to go. Epson makes good printers and has been eclipsed by HP over the years. However I think you can still get more for your money by buying from the underdog.

Ink is just expensive
It's how the printer companies really make their money. I cringe that it costs me 0 to replace all of my ink cartridges on my Epson R1800 and I never get as many prints as I think I should. A necessity for sure, there is no way around buying these things, I just wish they were a little cheaper. The quality of the inks are very good though and the prints I get from the R1800 are outstanding.


Genuine, and thus perfect
I don't think this ink requires any comments. Its genuine from Epson, period. It's perfect for the Epson printer it's designed for. I don't have a problem using third-party inks on my cheap everyday printers. But for professional quality jobs on a pretty expensive (at least when we bought it a few years ago) Epson Photo R1800 -- genuine ink is the only way to go.


Best price on genuine Epson ink
I buy my Epson ink cartridges from Amazon.com because they have the lowest available price for genuine Epson cartridges and if you make sure you are buying from Amozon.com and not a sub-supplier, you can always get free freight. If you do serious work and serious volume, genuine Epson ink is the ONLY way to go unless you want constant problems and headaches.

Epson 68 Series DURABrite High Capacity Color Multipack (T068520)


Recently ran out of ink on my epson workforce 600 (which btw these cartridges work for, the amazon compatibility option doesn't seem to work right) and decided to pick up refills. These high capacity ink cartridges work great. I print pretty often due to reports etc. that I need to write at home and submit so even after a hundred or so pages I haven't even dented the movement arm on the epson print window. Work great!

Highly recommend these over the regular capcity ink cartridges you'll save $$$!

excellent ink purchase for Epson CX5000
The price is right for this Epson DURAbrite Ultra ink purchase. That makes it a good buy. I got free shipping and that made it an even better buy.

Great price compared to your local stores !
The main attraction of this product is the Amazon price, why pay per ink cartridge more locally ?

Epson 99 Color Multipack with Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Light Cyan, and Light Magenta Ink Cartridges for the Epson Artisan 700 and Artisan 800 Printers


While this Epson ink is more expensive than some generic ink I used to order for my old Epson printer, since purchasing the Epson Artisan 800 printer I have stuck with the recommended ink and am happy that I have. Everything I print comes out beautifully and I've had zero problems with the printer. Buying it through Amazon.com saves a few dollars, it always arrives when promised and I remain a happy Amazon.com customer.

I love seperate cartridges, so I only have to replace what's empty! The colors are beautiful too!

If you want high quality prints, don't mess with third party inks. Epson ink is made for Epson printers. Don't use substitutes.


Great price
Any of our local stores cannot even come close in matching price for this ink set. Plus free shipping makes it an even better deal. Just with that the black was included with this.


excellent
this was a relief to get at the price i got. in my area it would have cost almost double. it was quick shipping as well

Epson Color Multi-pack Ink Cartridges (TO60520)

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010


I print out a lot of greeting cards on my Epson CX4800 and the colors always turn out nice and bright but not too bright. I tried the no-name brand "refills" and the quality is awful! I only spend about a year on the colored ink, including the black. Most printers will not work if even one colored cartridge is empty and Epsons are also like that. Don't know why if you're only printing black but I guess some of the colored ink is used with the black. Anyway, great product. Delivery by Amazon was very fast using standard shipping.

Epson Perfection 4490 Photo Scanner

Friday, December 25th, 2009


After scanning through reviews for the right scanner for me, I finally purchased the Epson Perfection 4490 Photo about six months ago. I use it frequently to scan both 35mm format and medium format. I absolutely love the quality it gives. I scan usually at 1200 dpi in professional mode which takes a bit of extra time but it does not feel unbearably slow. It took me some time to get used to, but once you get the hang of it, scanning is a breeze and even enjoyable. Digital Ice Technology is amazing when your film has scratches or dust from the lens on it. Also, I love the post-processing capability for simple things like contrast, hue, and brightness which saves me steps in Photoshop. This scanner is great for those who would like to experiment in film. Sometimes I will get film developed only for cheap at a local drugstore and then just scan them in, saving me money on having to buy a cd or prints each time.

Epson Cyan Ink Cartridge ( T054220 )

Epson Cyan Ink Cartridge ( T054220 )


I have owned several Epson Printers over the years and the qualipy of the print and seed of the printing has always astounded me. The one thing I have learned over & over agai, with each Epson I've owned, is to NEVER, NEVER, NEVER use "Compatible" or "OEM" Inks or carts on there printers. They WILL clog your print heads!

Epson uses propriatary inks that are much thinner then 3rt party ints and contain no lead or iron. Using NON-Epson Inks WILL clog the Print Heads every time & you'll have to replace the head. Using "Compatible" ink cartridges on printers where the head Print head is attached to teh cart (ie: HP, Dell, etc) if fine & they work perfectly, but printers like Epson & Cannon use teh same kind of ink that apparently 3rd party manufacturers can't get becasue I tried all of them and ALL clogged the Print Heads.

So my advice, spend the extra money and but AUTHENTIC Eposn Ink and Carts.

I have never had an ink cartridge change my life in so many ways. This ink cartridge is amazing! Not only does it allow my printer to print but it prints an amazing baby blue!

I recommend this ink cartridge to anyone who needs to print. It leaves one feeling wonderfully. IT as if angels themselves came down in this ink cartridge. I sincerely hope you buy one even if you don't have a printer. It will change your life!


Great inks!
I continue to be amazed at the quality of these Epson inks. Their archival/long-life qualities are very impressive.
