I could have done a better job removing dust, but otherwise they are very similar. I'm uploading a shot professionally edited and scanned by a film lab, and my own edited shot scanned on this scanner. Colors don't come out particularly vivid, but images 'straight out of the camera' usually need to be edited anyway. It automatically crops images, and though I haven't found out how to turn this off, I'm pretty happy with the job it does. At a decent resolution and using digital ICE (which doubles scan times) it took about 15 minutes to scan around 8 frames. It's not particularly fast, but it's not too slow either. I use it on an older version of MacOS and the only issue is I have to jiggle the mouse between frames or it stops scanning. The software impressed me, there's no bloat and even though this scanner came out in 2007 there's a version for Windows 11 and MacOS 10.15. It seems to be the same part as the V600.Ī nice little scanner that can do either documents or camera film. I 3D printed some but I think you can find them pretty easily online. Note: If you're using this for film (I am) you need the film holders that shipped with it originally. Make sure you have the plastic film holders!
