does the v700 have individual settings for scanning the different slide stocks (e.g., ektachrome, kodachrome, provia, velvia, etc)?

The Epson Scan software has a large variety of settings for acurate reproduction of images, but does not seperate them out by film type. Correcting for over/under exposure or color fading is not difficult, I have successfully copied hundreds of images from different types of films.

It says it scans photos up to 8x10 and 35mm negatives. But we don't scan slides so I'm not exactly sure how that works.

No it doesn't scan slides. It only scans photos but now the end result shows a faint line across every photo scanned. This was cited as a problem that other users have had as well.

I haven't tried that yet but it is supposed to scan any 35 mm color or black and white negatives. The only 35 mm slides it would not scan are the dark ones that could only see spots of light like distant street lights and such.

I don't think so. If the image is 1.75 " it is something other than 35mm. I think it will only scan the image within the border of a standard 35mm slide. Keep checking with other customers. I only used my scanner for 35mm.

Yes it has above slide and below slide variable illumination. There is also selectable aperture and colour filter wheel beneath the slide platform.

D. Fisher, Thanks very much for your response. I've copied your posting on batch scanning and will follow it. I'm just starting to use the V750 to scan my Hassy negs and your information is of great help. --E. Williams

Hi Vicki, No, this model does not scan slides but Canon has models with that feature. Outside of this question though, I can strongly recommend Canon scanners.... long life reliability. Rossi

I also have had two VuPoint FSt-C1-VP Film and Slide Digital Converters. The first one quit, so I got a second because I still had slides to copy. I have been able to use it with Windows 7 with Google's Picasa, their free Photo program. You can download it from Google. In Picasa, I select the import tab. Then select the OVT Scanner. It is the the generic TWAIN driver that Picasa uses for scanners and it seems to work with the VuPoint.

Although I haven't used this feature yet, the scanner comes with all the necessary hardware to scan film and slides. it's detailed in the onscreen manual and it says you can scan 35mm film negatives, 35mm slides, (film positives) and also 120 format negatives.

I purchased an Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner. It scans slides, pictures and negatives. The scanner takes 4 slides at a time. Worked great. I had about 1500 slides from the 60s. The Kaiser Mini let me sort thru them quickly. Was a great winter project.

Yes, it does. It also converts a color negative to "positive" colors. You select the type of material you are scanning at the beginning (slides, color negative, b&w; negatives) and then it displays the correct images on the screen until you change the setting.

I know the mp980 has film guide for scanning negatives and slides. I believe it backlights them also (but I don't have it to know for sure).

Hello D.K.,I can only speak to my own experience with the V500. It has worked above and beyond my expectations. I have scanned over 100 Kodachrome slides, and they are perfect. I find that they scan very clean with just a little spot work to be done in Photoshop. I have not even used the ICE option. The images are excellent, and the resolution permitted me to print a 20 x 30 of one of my favorite shots. Based on my experience, unless you are doing high volume scanning, the V500 is more than adequate.MB

Yes, Epson's recommendation is correct. Double-clicking the scanner in the print & scan section of system preferences gives you Apple's rudimentary scanning capability. I highly recommend a third-party scanning program like VueScan.

I am not aware of this capability. It's VERY easy, however, to set up a folder for each vendor and file the receipts within. I have had this scanner for over 3 months and literally use it on a daily basis and could not be more pleased with its performance and features.

I can't speak to the Canon, but I have been using the V500 for several months with an HP desktop on Vista Home Premium. I have scanned about 1000 35mm slides and all have scanned nicely. I have also scanned a few negatives and they scan better than the slides. Sadly, I still have about 6,000 slides to scan. . .
