Canon CanoScan 8800F Great product - I haven't used it heavily for an extended period yet but when I have used it for one-offs, the results have been fine and it's been easy-to-use. Therre's a lot of software bundled with the scanner (including Photoshop Elements which is very useful). If anything there's a little too much bundled software and not enough explanation of what each program does and its benefits over any other similar program. Thus great for techies but for people in a hurry to unpack and get going, a little arduous? A nice 'n' easy intro guide wouldn't go amiss even on a CD if it keeps the price down.

Easy to use software. I use is for 120 film scanning instead of paying for contact sheets or test prints and it works fine for that. The neg carriers are a bit flimsy but work. One thing to keep in mind is that you can only scan one strip of 120 film at a time but it doesn't take too long, i'd say no more than 2 min.

We wanted a slide scanner to convert our collection of slides to digital. This machine does 4 slides at a time and takes about 8 minutes to complete the process. It will be very time consuming to do our whole collection but the results are very good and, of course, you can 'tweak' the digital copies and improve them greatly! The scanner is easy to use and has many other functions which we haven't tried yet, as we already have a Canon MP600 scanner and printer.
