film, and one for 120 and 220 medium format and 4 x 5? film. To scan you remove the mat from the top cover to reveal the transparency adaptor, place the template on the flatbed, and put the film in the template which is foolproof

My experience.
A lot about this scanner is excellent but not everything. It is very quick to scan but doesn?t always recognise everything it should, for example when loading with 16 slides or 30 negatives it doesn?t always recognise and scan all of them, you either have to try and do it manually or you have to find the missed ones and reload them.

Advantages: Fast, good quality, and easy to set up Disadvantages: quite large, and sensitive
I was looking for a new top of the range scanner, to go along with my Hp P1000 photo smart printer, so I needed one at a good price, but which had great quality scanning, and I found it. Everyone knows that Hp can be a bit pricey, but for around £130, this has to be worth it.
It has a max resolution of 2400 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch), and this is ideal for enlarging pics and still keeping the quality in the picture. It is quick and as you can save the pics as jpegs, and other file types, it does'nt use alot of space on your hard drive.
When loading a pictuer, you also have many functions, ranging from resolution, colour quality, lighting, and inlaging or decreasing the picture size.
The scanner is slightly larger than the average flat bed scanner, but it is very user friendly, and has 4 short cut buttons on the front of it ...
Advantages: Great quality Scanning for it's price Disadvantages: a little bit on the chunky side
a good deal with this scanner.
If you've got windows XP then the plug and play option the scanner gives you is fantastic! no setup required. you just plug in the USB cable and you're ready to go (the PC automatically detects the device)
the one touch buttons on the scanners body also make quick scanning easy and practical.
If you're not after a stylish scanner, and you want to save some dosh, then HP's Scanjet 3670 is a good choice ...
