Had to fix a could things that came loose in shipping, but had worked wonders in scanning hundreds of old 4x5 wide format negatives. I have always preferred Epson scanners, but this is by far the best in home scanner for negatives.

It's been a while since a scanner aimed specifically at professional creatives was released, so it's a surprise that both Epson and HP are launching new models. Epson is first out of the gates with the Perfection V700 Photo.

Produces excellent quality; high-resolutiuon scans

Not as good as dedicated scanner for film

It's hard to argue with the incredible level of scanning resolution this model offers. You can scan images at up to 6400x9600, while other good models often only go up to 4800x9600.

Had it shipped a few days ago and tried to set it up and there was a constant blinking red light. Called Epson and they said it was defective possibly during transit.

I use this scanner in my dental practice for scanning documents and xrays for all types of record keeping. Its ability to scan all types of films and xrays make it very productive. The software is very simple to use and integrates well with other software. This my second unit after 8 years.

I have processed approximately 2000 colour slides, colour negative film and black and white negatives total. The quality settings are very flexible and the resulting scans are excellent although somewhat time consuming at the highest quality settings..

Found that the RS price was best buy online at the time. Original order cancelled, called customer service, they confirmed order and price were valid and in stock. They reordered another one for me. The order was cancelled again. I called to get a supervisor to find out why.

Accurate Color; Easy To Set Up; Good Bit Depth; Good Resolution

Slow

The scanner works as advertised and its performance is "as required". The EPSON software meets the seem requirements and performance The Adobe and Silverfast software are so buggy and mal-functioning that they need to be salvaged. They are beyond redemption and take away from the scanner.

Easy to Use; Quality; Easy to Set Up; Performance

The Epson v700 is hands down the best and most affordable scanner for professional film scans available. In my experience, the performance increase a Nikon coolscan 9000 or a Hasselblad flextight will give you over this scanner is negligible; and the Epson is usually much faster.

I've used one of these scanners in college multiple times and was very satisfied with the quality of the scans. I scanned 35mm, Medium Format and Large Format film in it and all came out very nice.

Great image quality; Very affordable

none that aren't with every flatbed scanner
