Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this two weeks ago, great price, free and fast delivery from Beach Camera through Amazon. I got this to replace my old Epson 636U, which I loved but which was not compatible with my new Windows 7 computer.
Well, this one could not have been easier to setup. In less than 10 minutes I was scanning. And the only reason it took that long was because I had to decide which photograph was going to be the first one I scanned. I tried the auto mode and the Professional (Photographer) mode and they both came out great: fast, great colors, and sharp. I can see that using the auto mode will probably be more than sufficient for most scans and most people. But, if you like to tweak with histograms and gamma and all that other PhotoShop-type stuff, you have plenty of flexibility. I haven't had a chance yet to try out the rest of the software and features but they look promising.
Now, for the asterisk: it's not enough of a complaint to ding it one star down from five, but it is slightly annoying. I don't care for the placement of the power cable and USB connectors on the unit; I think they'd be better in the "back" of the unit, but maybe they are right next to the power/control buttons to save money and space. And maybe it's just a problem for me because I have the unit on the right side of my desk and the computer tower is on the floor on the left side. (I can't reconfigure it any better). So, since the unit is so compact, I turned it "sideways" and it worked out just fine. The cover flips open perfectly, the power/USB cable are out of my way, and the little extra reach to the buttons is no big deal. So: still five stars.
Highly recommended, not only for the price, but for the features, and results. Now, on to the thousands of photos I want to scan in. Maybe I'll update this review after a few hundred....
