...Intro
This scanner from Canon is a flatbed scanner, which can also scan film. Yes, that means you can scan your old negatives! Of course, if you don’t need to, don't let that put you off this scanner. This is one of Canon's mid-range scanners, higher models have better film scanning.
Installation of this scanner was a breeze. First, you have to unpack the scanner. Whilst this may seem like a minor point, it does actually take a little while because all the parts of the scanner is secured by many little red tape strips of tape, which you have to remove. Whilst this does take a little while, you can be sure your scanner was fully protected in transportation and is assuring. After that you just have to connect the USB and power cables and install the software, and you're ready to go.
Speed
This scanner is much faster...

...CanonCanoScan
The CanonCanoScan LIDE 60 is one of my most recent buys.
It has a very hard act to follow in my study - an HP Scanjet 6300 which I reviewed some time ago.
Buying
The HP decided to die on me, just when I needed it in connection with a funeral!
I needed to scan a photo for an order of service in full colour, and the HP was lifeless.
A quick trip to PCW was my only hope, and faced me with a dilemma. Would I go top of the range - my normal approach - or get by with something cheapish.
The latter was the option which led me to the Canon. At under £50 it seemed to offer all I really needed, and did the job perfectly once I got it home.
Appearances.
This is a wonderfully light, slim model - and sits on its edge on the desktop if need be.
26 cms by 38 cms by 4 cms deep is all...

...I have CanonCanoScan LiDE 25 at home. I have used this scanner since 2006 and got no problem with this scanner. CanonCanoScan LiDE 25 can be installed easily and can be operated even for beginner. It doesn't need an adaptor. The power supply comes from one USB port. CanoScan LiDE 25 has a good design. It is very slim and light, so you can bring it easily wherever you go. This is not an expensive scanner in my country, but it has a good quality in scanning results. The scanning process is a weakness of this scanner. It needs maybe 2 minutes for one page scanning. Colour sensitivity of this scanner is good. It means the result and the object of scanning have almost same quality. Overall CanonCanoScan LiDE 25 deserves to be recommended for anyone who needs a cheap scanner with a good result....
