The Canon CanoScan 8800f The canon CanoScan 8800f is a near perfect scanner. It is used in our school and after using it for recent Art coursework i was very impressed. It took around ten seconds to scan an A4 sheet, which is pretty quick in my opinion. The quality is also good. The colours come out well and although it was not perfect, it's hard to expect a perfect scan of a watercolour painting, as the colours were not bold. After asking my ...
...on my work, i decided i would have to check out what it comes with online. I was surprised to see that our school's Adobe photoshop Elements 5, a great program, had come with the scanner. Also included is ArcSoft photo studio 5, a not so great piece of software. Anyway, back to the scanner itself. As well as the scanner and software, it includes a trio of plastic adaptors. One is for 35mm filmstrips, one is for 35mm mounted slides and one is for ... Read review

...the updated drivers off the Canon site, so no need to worry! I've now scanned negative film, slides and colour prints, and I've tweaked the settings to get some superb results even from faded or scratched source materials. The ScanGear program includes a number or excellent filters like backlight correction and noise reduction. These are very useful as the processed image needs less work once you get it in your editor. For everyday scanning you ...
...more advanced features for when you do need them. Image quality when using the platen is excellent. Previews are fast and a 1200dpi (max) scan only takes about 3-4 minutes for a 6x4 photo. It's not silent, but the noise is hardly noticeable! When scanning slides or negatives though, things are a bit hit and miss. You can fit 4 slides into the special adaptor and they fit in quite snugly. Sometimes when you insert the adaptor back into the scan cover ... Read review

Advantages: small size, one button operation, no power supply needed
Disadvantages: some supplied software a bit dated

...machine. I'd seen an earlier Canon and was impressed by the size and functions offered so bought the latest model. Very easy to set up, just run the cd and choose the full install. When it's all done restart machine and plug in the scanner. Some of the software has since been removed as not really useful or duplicated what I already had but without doubt the best bit is the push button operation for copy, print, send by email or make a pdf.
