The quality is just as good as my previous Canon scanner which I thought was fantastic (while it worked), and the resolution is better (of course technology has improved).
#Epson perfection v500 photo scanner software software#
The Epson software is absolutely fantastic - it allows you to scan multiple images (both slides AND prints) in one "session". So I decided to return to Epson after my bad experience with Canon. My old old old Epson 1200 scanner is still working fine, but can't scan slides. I purchased it after my 2 previous Canon Canoscan 8400f scanners "died" (sensor failed to calibrate after about 9 months of use). Pros: This is the 4th flatbed scanner I have owned. If this unit hadn't broken, it would have been given a much better review. However, it will be a long time before I will buy anything else made by Epson.

Overall Review: As part of the "final" solution, Epson also indicated that it might be cheaper to buy a new unit. The first suggestion was re-installing software! Their final answer is to deliver the unit to some "local" repair shop some 150 miles away, with a copy of the receipt to prove warranty in effect. If you want to speak to a person, you must call (banker's hours) long distance and wait on hold for 10-20 min. The software took a bit to figure out, but it is usable.Īs usual, Newegg price & delivery was fantastic!Ĭons: Epson service is TERRIBLE! The unit developed a defect within a couple of months: A red line is now added to all my films.

Unfortunately, ICE doesn't work forīlack & White. Saved me hours of extra touch-up trying to remove dust. Bought this to migrate my extensive 35mm and large format negatives to digital.
