Pencil Drawing Scans
on July 17, 2010
Posted by: Sketcher
from Sammamish, WA
I bought this mainly as a device that I could scan my pencil drawings in at a higher resolution than I could get at my local copy center. I was very impressed with the quality reproduction of the scans and the auotmatic features the software has to adjust contrast, etc. The resultant digital images are crisp and give me a great digital representation for my drawings that I can then upload to a website for friends to see or email. I also did a scan of a color photo that I wanted to work from, blew it up 2X, and chose a grey scale output of a photo I wanted to draw. The detail was wonderful and it allows me to do a 2X drawing of the photo much easier. I haven't used the film negative feature as of yet.
Operation is simple, seemingly foolproof, quiet and fast enough for my purposes. I was surprised at the images you can get at even the lower scan resolutions that the scanner offers.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Scanner

I am not use to writing reviews ... I can tell you that I love this scanner... I had a older one from Epson and I wanted to update... my friend took my old one and is still using it.. wow huh... this one, the photos that I scan are so beautiful clear and sharp...and it does the best it can with some of my really old 35mm photos that I did not do a good job of taking the picture...I love the Dust and scratch removal that's great...I like the looks of it also that is a nice bonus for sitting on the desk... I like that I can move it to another location and plug into my laptop I have windows 7 on my laptop and so it goes between Vista and Windows 7 with out any problems...oh yes the one feature that it has that I love and use all the time is the email one... you just push the little button it it does it's thing... I have taken the photo from email and then the same one and scanned it to the computer and I cannot tell the difference... great huh...hope this helps you...I would buy another one from Epson...

BRAVO!!!
on August 6, 2010

from Columbus, GA
BRAVO-BRAVO. I just finished processing 1000+ 35mm slides, and put 800 of them on DVD's for my children. Patience is key, each slide needs to be evaluated as to whether it is a throw away or a keeper, and does it need color correction. Color correction takes time, but is straight forward. I was dreading this task, but the V500 made it easy. I used a Windows -7, 64 bit processor computer. PS.. I down loaded Epson 13658 software. How canI obtain a set of Windows-7 software CD's for my V500 Photo Scanner ??

Works great!

I had to replace my last epson scanner because the slide and photo features were no longer working. This new scanner is easy to operate and seems to produce very good images in all three of the modes. I'm looking forward to getting some big projects done now that I can scan my old negatives and slides.

Epson V500 Photo Scanner
on August 17, 2010
Posted by: RJTuite
from Fairport, NY (near Rochester)
I really like the scanner. It does an excellent job with all sorts of originals (text, graphics, or photos). I particularly like creating a scan copy in pdf format for best quality.
As feedback on future enhancements, I would like (1) the ability to designate where to store a scan-produced file, (2) one click computer access to the various scan options (print copy, email copy, pdf copy), rather than the scanner buttons or the program launch sequence, and (3) ability to access the scanner from another computer on the network.
