Pretty Good Stuff
on January 17, 2011

I bought this scanner with the intention of scanning a lot of old 120 slides. I am not disappointed in the least. I do have one quibble and that is I cannot stand the Epson software. The forced use of a serial number at the end of the file name on a flat-bed scanner hampers a smooth workflow. It means having to edit the file name after the scan is complete, making a 2-step process out of what should be a single step.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good start

The initial start-up of the system went as well as any I've experienced for an electronic or computer device. I found the tutorial documents thorough and easy to follow. The scanner made excellent copies of 40+ year old Kodachrome slides the first time around. As I started to learn the color correction and dust removal features they got even better. At first use, this was an excellent product, and I believe as I learn more about it, my results will be even better.

I have only had the V600 scanner for a couple of weeks.
I bought it so I could scan our slides into my computer.
It is working just great. You can only do 4 slides at a time so it is a little time consuming but it works.
I haven't tried film yet but that is not what I bought for.
Easy to install. I am glad I bought it.

Espson Artisan 810

This all-in-one printer replaced my Epson RX500. I absolutely loved my RX500 & was very sad to see it die. I scan A lot of slides, negatives and photos. So it was necessary for my to find a printer that did this. To my disappointment, they don't make one that will do slides & negatives anymore. I did however purchase the Epson Perfection V600 Photo along with the Artisan 810. I LOVE both of them. I'm not thrilled to have 2 machines to do the job, but they are both wonderful machines! The Artisan is hooked up to my desktop computer and wireless for my laptop. I love that feature. The touchscreen is GREAT! So many things were different on this printer that I wasn't sure if I was going to like them. I spent all day playing with the printer. Pictures come out awesome, of course it's an Epson!!! There's a special place for the smaller photo paper, good feature. I fax often as well. So much simpler & faxes more than one page! I printed photos straight from my SD card...BEAUTIFUL! It has a USP port if you just wanted to plug in your camera. I don't know what else to say...Photo come out just as if they were professionally done. I am a person that analyzes every product, read all of the reviews. It takes weeks or sometimes months to do that, but am always satisfied with the results. I love Epsons products, and if your considering the Artisan 810..go for it!

Epson v600 Scanner
on February 7, 2011
Posted by: Bennie
from USA
I purchased this scanner so I could scan some pictures from my old photo albums that are 57 years old. I scanned pages that had 6+ pictures on each page. The scanner worked perfectly. When I put a page with 6 old black and white photos it detected and scanned each photo separate from all of them. This was a time saver because I do not have to use another program to crop and save each picture. I did have some of the pages where it would not separate the pages but this is not a big problem for me. This scanner is worth every penny I paid for it. If you want an excellent scanner at a good price this is the one for you. The only negative is it will not separate photos of 7 and more especially if they are not all the same size. It need separation to scan individual pictures.

Excellent with flaws

the V600 is a versatile scanner that produces remarkably good scans of photographic material right out of the box. The scans are a little soft but the included sharpening feature compensates. The software controls of color temperature, hue etc are adequate but far from the state of the art. The V600 also produces very good scans of 35 mm slides and negatives. The results are not quite as good as a dedicated scanner but are very close. The color adjustments software problems are more obvious with transparencies than pictures. The transparency holders are awful. They consist of 2 pieces that are not hinged. Unless your negatives lie limply in place, getting them into the holder without a wrestling match is awkward. In addition the holders really do not hold negatives flat. The scanner does a pretty good job of compensating but it isn't the best solution.

Great addition to my computer setup
on February 21, 2011

Great machine and simple to use. The simple "scan" button is wonderful. But it's necessary to get very familiar with the User's Guide and getting to know where the info is located in it. For instance, it took some time to learn how to change resolution when scanning 35mm slides, but once I did it at 1200 dpi, Wow. Removing the slides from the document table is somewhat clumsy, but this is greatly outweighed by the versatility for the money.

Great Scanner
on February 26, 2011

I have used this only a few times, but my wife has scanned over 200 photos with excellent results. It makes a great scanner for documents and PDF files. Easy to use reasonable fast. Straight forward settings.
For photos the ICE settings work very good. Not a replacement for photo shop but with a corrected scan to start with it is a real time saver when saving old photos. Very clear with little additional work needed. I have other flat bed scanners, and dedicated film scanner, which I no longer use. A word of caution the only way I have been able to install this scanner on windows 7 pro is with the installation disk. I was missing the disk and tried to install off the website with out any luck. But with the disk took less than 5 min.
