"Best Damned Scanner Ever!"

Over the years I have been continually disappointed by every scanner I have used. They were slow. The software was a hassle. The sheet size of the output never matched the input -- I mean who needs an 8.5 x 11.41 sheet anyway! Now my life has changed. I might be more willing to part with a bodily organ or two than my new CanoScan 8800. As an architect I needed a way to easily convert pen and ink sketches into electronic documents. The ease of using the CanoScan allows me to treat pen and paper as an essential computer-based drawing tool. Previous scanners were too cumbersome to dash off a quick hand sketch and email to contractor in the field. Not now. It's almost as easy as passing it to the next desk. JPGs, PDFs - easy. Black and white, color, grayscale - easy. No surprises. Works right every time.
"Scanner for older slide collection"

Went on line, read many of the reviews, most very positive. Scanner arrived quickly. Easy to hook-up and install. Slides were in boxes for 20-30 years still came out almost perfect. I am scanning over 1200 slides. The only thing wrong, I just wish scanning time were a little quicker, but I have worked out a routine in between scanning. Great Product. Thanks.
I purchased this scanner to capture my family's 35mm slides. It captures 4 at a time and the software allows me to clean up the images. This is a much better scanner than slide scanners available for that purpose. I would recommend this to anyone needing to capture thier family's old 35mm slides plus it also is a very good scanner of photos and even documents. It is much more quire than most and very easy to use. Canon makes a good product and the price is very reasonable.

I purchased the Canon scanner for a family project to document over 200 color slides taken by my father between 1940 and 1972. The quality of the scanner output was beyond my expectations. The scanner works equally well on film strips and on photos. Definitely one of my best computer add-on purchases.
If you want to finally get your old pictures or negatives out of boxes and onto your computer, this is a great scanner to do it with. Use them as wallpaper, send them to old friends to remember how you looked, let your kids see what you looked like in a pre-digital age.
This scanner makes it easy to scan your pictures and negatives. The previous reviewers who rated this product highly are correct, and I will summarize those points in a quick format because it works for me.
- Easy to install (Windows 7)
- Began scanning old 35mm color negatives immediately
- Software automatically identifies the negatives when using the holder and scans them in. You don't have to worry about cropping each negative from a pre-scan. I love that!
As other reviewers point out, the disappointments are related to the film, not the scanner:
- It's reasonably quick to put the negatives into the holder, but scanning takes time regardless of the scanner.
- Picture quality on the negatives isn't what we're used to today. Even at 4800dpi they're blurry compared to digital photos. I went back to 2400dpi for a faster scan time.
- I started with 30-year-old negatives and they're pretty beat up after many moves and being stored in old boxes. No miracles.
- Negatives get scratched and the photos dim with age. Either way this scanner will do its best to recover the picture and give you basic tools to clean it up.
- You can use software to improve the pictures, but that depends on your skill with that software. I haven't tried the bundled software because I have a *lot* of negatives to scan and I'll play with it later. It's just great to have the pictures again, scratches and all.
Bring your life back from the attic or basement - you can do it with this scanner.
"Haven't used product yet, was poorly boxed by Amazon"

I haven't used the item yet, it is a Christmass gift. However, it was poorly boxed by Amazon. The Amozon box had about four inches of space at the top and side for the origional box to bang around in.
