The Scanjet 3800 photo scanner gives great value for money as a means of digitising your photo collection. Your can scan photos, slides and negatives quickly and efficiently. Also it is possible to digitise and copy your old photos with a resolution of up to 2,400 s 4,900 ppp and with a colour depth of 48 bits for warm rich images.
The software you receive with the scanner is , HP Image Zone; a simple, comprehensive solution that provides you with a range of easy-to-use tools to get the most out of digital photography. HP Image Zone enables convenient download, archiving and preservation of digital memories, as well as simple editing, project creation and photo sharing.
HP Image Zone photo and imaging software lets you optimize and enhance your digital photography and video experience with one, all-inclusive digital photography software program. It offers an integrated environment to organize, edit, view and preserve important photographs.
Convenience and ease-of-use. The software will automatically upgrade all HP devices to its newest version each time you purchases a new HP product. Although optimized for use with HP digital imaging solutions, Image Zone can be used with any brand of PC, camera or printer.
The facility the that I personally use is the panoramic photo stitch feature. It allows you to take a number of photos and stitch them into one photo, the package is very clever and matches the images perfectly.
Overall excellent scanner with easy to use software. If it is high end photo editing you are after then HP Image zone is not the one for you, but it will easily cope with the basic demands of a family photo album.
