Good quality and easy to use product
I am very satisfied with my purchase. I use this product to scan various documents and old photo film. The document feeder is an excellent feature. The resolution is great and text recognition is very accurate. Working with negatives is very easy too.

good product
Digital Ice doesn't work at all and don't EVER press the "Cancel" button while a scan is in progress! If you do, you will lock your system forcing a power down to get it going again. Now mine has dead lights (or something) so every scan has a black line through the middle.

This is a fabulous product at a fabulous price. I wanted to scan old family photos, some dating back to the early 1900s that were not in good shape. The scanner is not only easy to use but the results are excellent. There are slide cases, too, for scanning slides, which I haven't tried yet.

PERFECTION V500 PHOTO CLR FB 6400DPI 48BIT LTR USB 3.4 D-MAX TPU
Does exactly what I want, need. Haven''t tried the slide/film scanning yet but don''t have many slides left from the ''60''s! Speedy, easy web site!
Pros:
- Very quiet
- lid easily stays partially open but well out of the way
- super DPI range
- immediately recognized and connected to OS X
- quick ''warm up''
- great controls for pre-scan improvements
Cons:
- Would be nice if it could be shared on the network

It's a winner!
For the average photographer, this scanner does just about everything right. It gives great results, quickly and quietly. I particularly like the color restoration feature, which rescued a lot of my old, badly processed slides.

Good for odd slide formats
I bought the V500 because I had a collection of "medium format" slides (2.75" square) and this was the only scanner in my price bracket that advertised it could cope with that size.

Of course the driver software doesn't work on Linux (I wasn't seriously expecting it to!) so I had to comandeer my wife's PC. There are lots of options promising various degrees of automation.

Excellent Purchase
I purchased this scanner in November 2008 with the intention of digitizing all of our family photographs, some going back as far as 1920. Working every spare minute scanning the negatives and prints the task was completed on March 1, 2009.

Epson v500 reveals OMD completely humbles RB67 results - (4x "full" frame)
Good scanner, and very pleasant seller. Does my 6x7 negs and transparencies perfectly. I always thought my EM-5 bested the results I obtained with my RB67 and carefully processed film, but I had not seen the negs for a while.
