Let's deal with the big question
Can a flat-bed scanner really produce film scans to compare with a dedicated 35mm scanner? In our opinion
Most users will be well satisfied with the Epson output. Scanned Kodachrome slides retained colour
Detail and...
The scanned image quality is very good
Both for black and white negatives and for 50 year old Kodachrome slides. Scanning 35mm originals at 9600dpi produces a big file that translates into a 140x90cm at 240dpi in Photoshop
Giving head room for cropping
Film holders for 35mm
Medium format and transparency (slide)
Good OCR recognition
Excellent quality flatbed scans
The editors didn't like

Digital ICE dust removal, Excellent OCR results, Good range of transparency holders
Substantial footprint, External power supply, Noisy head drive motors
The Epson Perfection V600 Photo is a quick scanner. Starting from the simplest 200ppi A4 black and white scan, which took just eight seconds, it takes very little time to start scanning, thanks to its white LED light source. LEDs, which used to be found o...
Abstract: Leider steht dafür nicht die ganze Auflägefläche, sondern nur ein schmaler Streifen in der Mitte zur Verfügung. Der Scanner schafft 6.400 dpi und ist dank LED-Abtastung sofort bei der Sache. Die Scan-Software bietet eine automatische Staub- und Kratzer...
Abstract: il séduira ainsi ceux qui recherchent une solution simple sans faire de compromis sur la qualité. Enfin, le V600 Photo d'Epson, même s'il ne délivre pas une qualité d'image supérieure au CanoScan 5600F stricto sensu, corrige en..
