Advantages: Scans slides 35mm and APS Disadvantages: Slightly tricky on first instal
...I have thousands of photographs mounted on slides which I needed to scan in to digital form. I am not part of a professional studio so found this to be a good price at the time. £700 but you can get it for £400 now. It is great for its powerful features like reducing alot of the scratches on these slides.
It can be quite tedious as it will only do batches of 4 slides or 6 negatives at a time although unless you are time restricted it is not such a big problem. The scan itself has 3 stages:
1 Thumbnail scan,
2 Preview scan, where you can touch up your pictures
3 Final scan
I would recommend that you keep checking for the updates of the software....

...I have had lots of scanners and I have found the CanonCanoScan LiDE 35 to be the best on I have ever used. Very easy to use, good scan relation, and picture quality. I use mine for all sorts of projects. My friends have other type's of scanners and I have got three of them to get a CanonCanoScan LiDE 35. And they will say the same as me.
It's the best one you can bye for a very, very low price. It's very light and easy to transport, if your scanner in the office is not up to scratch then take in you CanonCanoScan LiDE 35 and do the job right. Runs off USB2 with very little power taken from you PC. And as the advert says if anyone can Cannon Can....

Advantages: Nice resolution, quick and easy to use, professional quality scanner Disadvantages: Non so far
...I own a small printers and my back-ground is in Graphic Design so when I look for a scanner I look for one that is easy to use but can supply quality high resolution images that can be used for a professional looking finished product and the CanonCanoScan 8600F never fails to deliver the results I am after.
Some may say that the price at around £120 to £150 is maybe a little on the high side but with 4800 x 9600dpi, USB2 connectivity for high speed scans and a nice little mode that allows you to scan multiple images as seperate files with a single pass of the scanner you certainly get what you pay for.
If you are looking for a quality scanner for ease of use but professional results then the CanoScan 8600F is for you....

Travels with my 400D
I’ve been putting off writing this review for months and months. I’ve been waiting until I know just about as much about the camera as I possibly can, but I’ve come to the conclusion that this will never happen, more

At last, a miracle in SLR technology. The Canon EOS focuses back to the 'old school' photographers world and can help even an amateur into a new dimension of imagery.

For some time I have wanted to buy a digital camera that would be small enough to carry in my pocket and would be easy to use. I already have a canon powershots3 IS and have been really pleased with it. However it's not always convenient to carry around... more

From the sleek metal finish to the impeckable Canon lens.
This is has all the good points of the HV10 while getting rid of the bad points.
The common complaint about this camera is its low light performance,... more
