Surpassed my expectations!

I had hundreds of pictures, 35mm, and medium format slides and negatives to scan, and needed a scanner that could do a professional job. I was concerned that the V600 would not be able to give me the final output I needed, and would need to get Epson’s model V800 or V850 to get the results I required. But being on a tight budget I couldn’t afford to step up to that level, so I bit the bullet and got the V600. The quality of the finished images are amazing, and I’m so glad I purchased this unit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

very poor installation program

Every program on the installation CD asked for the same VC_RED.MSI and even though I went online, got and installed the file, your installation software still asked for it. The only program I managed to get installed was from your web site. Not good enough Epson!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have two other scanners but needed a third one to increase the speed and quality of my scanning and to allow me to scan negatives. This scanner ended up being a great purchase on both counts. The negative scanning is terrific! It is fun to turn old strips into high quality digital photos. It scans at a high enough resolution to blow them up nice and big. The regular scanning is great also and the software allows you to scan several photos at once and draw outlines around them right in the tool so it scans just the photos but all at once. The only downside is that the scanner software seems to have some memory bugs and will complain that I need to close other apps even if nothing is open. A reboot of my PC fixes the problem. Also I need to reboot every time I shut off or disconnect the scanner. Mostly I do a large batch of scans at one time so it doesn’t bother me too much.
Using it to scan original artwork, and the quality is spectacular!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Major problems with installation.

Installation causes corruption of Windows Office Applications. I am still trying to work out the bug. I did some test scans and they look OK. Epson needs to fix their driver. I can't really give a complete review of scanning function.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I use this scanner for my illustration business and I have been very happy with it. Even when you are scanning a larger piece you can do it in sections and sew it together in Photoshop. The software installation and user interface was easy to work with. Great product and value! I also have another epson workforce scanner printer that has been solid for years.
I've had this for about a month and happy with it so far. I like the auto feature that digital removes dust and scratches it helps a lot! Though keep in mind you should still clean the slides etc. I am using it to convert all my family's, slides, negatives, photos to digital. After a lot of research and reviews this suits all my needs especially for this price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great scanner for film

I bought this to scan my B&W negatives that I develop at home. It did such a good job I went back and re-scanned some color negatives that I had done commercially, and it did a better job than the lab did.
