Good scanner; confusing instructions
on September 11, 2011
Posted by: BBDocent
from Sugar Land, TX
I've only had the scanner about 24 hours. My main reason for purchasing is to be able to scan 35 mm slides so that I can use the images in a PowerPoint presentation. It's actually working very well. The "confusing" instructions for 35mm slides are scattered throughout despcriptions of the 4 possible scanning modes; however, for the "Full Auto Mode" there is a special note in a box which says that 35mm slides can only be scanned in "Full Auto Mode." Since finding that bit of informaiton, scanning has been easy, and results are acceptable.
The Users Manual has an index. However, it's not useful. There are only 2 entries for slides, and neither reference is the one about the requirement to scan 35 mm slides in "Full Auto Mode." Epson should review the entire Users Manual for accuracy and clarity.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Scanner, software so so

I just set up my scanner. I did learn the hard way that it is much better to just scan the photos and do any adjustments, adding sharpening filters, color corrections, and especially not to use the dust removal tool at any setting. Results are much better obtained by opening a scan in Photoshop and adjusting from there.
The scanner does work very nicely!

Just what the doctor ordered to rejuvenate negs

After only a week of use, it's a bit soon toa rate the V600 at 5 STARS, but, I'll gamble that the features I haven't yet tested are as good as those that I've used this week. If the V600 works as well as my 12 year old "Brand X", which is still operating beautifully on my other computer, I will be very happy.
The TRUE reason that I bought the V600 is to convert hundreds of color and black & white negatives up to 65 years old, as well as restore a few fading color prints from the early 1950s.
Some of my 60+ year old negatives had never been printed, so it was a hoot to hit "preview" and see them appear in their original glory. Great job, Epson. I have already recommended this unit to my oldest son, while another son has purchased the Epson V330 and likes it, too.

Fantastic scanner

My wife inherited a very large collection of family photos, slides, and negatives. Some photos are from the late 1870s, and the slides date as far back as the early 1950s. So, we bought the V600 to reproduce the materials for the family. The set up was easy. The photos and the slides that we scanned turned out great. Photoshop made it easy to correct the color and to improve the image. The scanner is every bit as good as the reviews indicated.

Exactly what I wanted!

I've only had this scanner a couple of weeks but so far it is exactly what I wanted and more. It was easy to set up and is easy to use. I scanned some old faded negatives from back in the 60s and the color restoration is phenomenal. The photos look like they were just taken. I have had 2 other flatbed scanners of another brand but this one outperforms them both.

Have scanned many hundred old Negatives and slides. The ICE feature erased dust spots and blemishes from slides that are over 60 years old. Wonderful product and very easy to work with.

Epson Perfection V600 Photo Scanner

I have not pushed the limits of this scanner. But so far I am very favorably impressed with the hardware, not impressed with the provided software. I find the software painful to use, being forced to do more steps than I feel is necessary and/or having to do the same steps over and over again. Perhaps I just haven't studied the manual well enough (wherever it is).

Epson V600 Scanner

I have 1000's of old 35mm slides from around the world going back to the late 50's. Wanted to preserve digitally. I've tried other scanner/converters but none worked as easily and efficiently as the Epson V600. Thank you Epson.
Now I have to tackle all the photograph conversions to digital.
