Sharpness and grain rendering are weak points. I imagine this will be locked down as soon as an admin sees it.īefore this gets locked, I'd point-out only that my epson v500 is mediocre with 35mm.

If you have read them all you should find your answer. Originally posted at 9:40AM, 24 February 2009 PDT Should I rather go with the v350, since it has a film loader (although it looks to me you get a lot of dust on your negatives that way)?Īny other suggestions in this pricerange (€150-ish) are welcome as well. I've read mostly positive reviews, but I'm not sure if it's actually a good filmscanner.ĭoes someone have some experience with this scanner? I've been looking around a bit and found the Epson Perfection v300 the best choice right now. I'm looking for a scanner that scans slide film (35mm), mainly to see how my pictures look before getting them printed. Call Epson SA on 01 for more info.I know there's a million topics about this, but I've read them all. You can even scan 3D – and over-sized objects, making use of its 180 degrees lid, making it ideal for scanning from books or old albums. The V300 will also allow you to convert all your slides and negatives to digital as it has a built-in film and slide holder. Scanning at a considerable 4800 x 9600 dpi, the V300 can do far more than scan the odd newspaper clipping.įor starters, you can scan all your photos at archive quality resolutions, without having to wait an eternity for scans to complete either. To give your product a name like “Perfection” takes courage, or arrogance, but does the V300 live up to this marketing hype? The short answer, yes it does. You don’t have to fork out a fortune anymore to get some good quality scans as is proven by the very well priced and very much liked Epson Perfection V300 Photo Scanner.

Scanners have come a long way in a short time, a tale not unfamiliar to anyone who knows anything about the consumer electronics industry.
