I had no prior experience with scanners and was amazed how quickly I learned the process. The quality of the images, even with scratched negatives, has exceeded my expectations.
I've been using an Epson Perfection V500 Photo Scanner for years, and the V600 is even better. The images are sharp and crisp, and the scanner works well with the Kofax PaperPort program. I'm very happy with it.

I bought this primarily to scan old 120 medium format B&W negatives and also 35 mm B&W negatives and slides. It has worked very well for all of these purposes and I have saved a huge amount of money on the medium format negatives as compared to what it would cost for commercial scans of similar resolutions. My only problem was that I was unable to get some negatives to lie absolutely flat even after a number of attempts at remounting them. Whether or not this was the cause of regions of the scan appearing darker than others (typically some portion divided by the rest by a "line" (region of change) at angles that seemed like they were related to the uneven negative, I am not sure. I could not make out such regions when I examined the negatives under a loop but these were much smaller "views" than I could get with a scanned image so I am not sure what was the culprit. In any case, I never had this problem with negative strips that laid absolutely flat in the holder and the results were fixable in my photo editor (DxO). Overall, I have been extremely impressed by the scanner.
