I'm so glad I purchased this. I've thousands of slide, colour and B&W negatives, mostly 35mm, but some 120 and 5x4s. This scanner does all formats and produces beautiful scans.
What you need to know.
It comes bundled with Monaco EZColor to control colour, using ICC profiles. You calibrate your system using the targets (film and paper artwork.) You get to calibrate your scanner, monitor and printer. It's quick, easy and produces consistant colour.
It comes bundled with LaserSoft Silverfast Ai. Takes a little learning due to German English, but it's very good once you get used to it. The autopilot settings produce good results straight away. Remember to get the free upgrade from Silverfast, after you have registered the copy that comes with your scanner.
It does not come with the Fluid Mount Accessory (FMA). You have to send your invoice off to Epson (email a PDF) for them to send you the FMA. If you want the very best scans this unit can produce you need to use the FMA. Especially if you have a slides and negs that are dirty, scratched or grainy. The difference after using scanner fluid is amazing. (Look up Haynes Graphic Arts Ltd and ask about the V750 (FMA) starter kit.
The Epson scan software is not bad either, many will find this sufficient to get good scans without taxing the brain cells.
This unit is so good you will be able to get perfectly acceptable 16x20 prints from those old Ektachrome / Kodachrome slides with a little care.
You will be save countless hours in Photoshop by using Digital ICE to clean up your scans.
It has a IR sensor and can be used in multiple scan / pass to render a greater dynamic range (using Silverfast.)
You can pay £[...] for a 2nd hand Nikon film scanner, that will only do 35mm film. You can pay £[...] for a new Nikon scanner that does only 35 and 120 film. The scans you get from the V750 are of similiar quality, but when you get to 120 there is not £[...] worth of difference.
I reckon this is the only scanner you need to convert your film stock to digital. It might even convert you to digitised medium format film workflow. No digital camera will hold a candle to a medium format slide / neg that is scanned using this unit. Plus, no mucking about in the darkroom.
I'm impressed, you will be if your looking for a good scanner that is good at all it sets out to do.
