High Quality Scans. The best flatbed scanner in the price range. Challenges scanners costing twice the price.

Scanning 2000+ 35mm slides. The slides are 60-80 years old, should have done years ago. Slides loose some of the color over the years. I agree with all the recommendations that this is the best scanner for what I am doing. I am using VueScan software to create an image of the 12 slides and process another day. Buy a few extra slide holders. Also created for scanning photos.

Does a great job scanning 35mm, 120, 4x5, and larger! Buy the additional wet mount for even more capability! Comes with 2 of every adapter so you can be scanning one and prepping the other!

I enjoy using this scanner along with the EpsonScan. I have also used the SilverScan program; it requires more of a learning curve. I purchased the scanner to digitalize family photos from years ago. It is slightly shaper than the V600 but would be hard to tell if not comparing scanned photos side by side, but not as sharp as digitalizing using my Sony camera with a Sony macro lens. Using the scanner is a slower process upfront but the colors are more true to life than with my digital camera which is faster upfront but that requires more tweaking to get the colors right after capturing the photo/s.

It is simply THE scanner to get if you are serious about scanning photos or slides, haven't tried negatives, but it has the adapter. Historical Society is happy.

Love this scanner. Very crisp detail and consistent results. Very fast as well. Would highly recommend this scanner to anyone looking for professional results.

The IT person who set it up for me said it was new but an older version of the V850. The Silverfast 8 that came with it was already outdated and wasn’t compatible. He went in and updated to the software Silverfast 9 but I had to pay extra. Now it is supposed to work. He said it should be a good scanner.

Did not work out of the box but Epson sent me a replacement that works GREAT and Best Buy refunded my money and the extended warranty money. I am very happy with the scanner

While we have not had it long, so far the scanner and software work beautifully! It has cut our scan time in half! The quality of the scans are as expected, they look great.
Negative on the negative carriers. Slooooow scans.

It has the capability of making good scans, but it has not kept up with modern technology. It is extremely slow and the 35 mm negative carriers are a tedious nightmare. I will not use mine again until I find the time and way to make the negative carrier I have designed in my head. It just wastes too much time.

This is the gold standard for flatbed scanners. Depending on specific needs, VueScan software can be more useful than the provided Epson software.

Very high quality scans but it takes a VERY long time to scan slides. I bought it to do stereo slides but so far have not seen a way to do them. Epson said that it would.
