Price Paid:  $235.00 from store

Model Reviewed:
3000f scanner

Summary:

When scanning photos this scanner is everything I require. The scanning software is easy to use with a good range of options. However, when it comes to scanning slides it is most disappointing as they always come out dark. To compensate I try tweaking the brightness and contrast settings in the software but the colors in the dark areas are never true. You can play around with the image in a photo-editing program but they are always disappointing and never get near the quality of color and clarity that you get when projected onto a screen. If you want a scanner that scans slides then go for something else, and if all you need to scan is photos and documents then you don't need this scanner. Beware of reviews that appear to parrot the sales blurb.

Strengths:

easy to use

Weaknesses:

doesnt do a good job on slides
