Epson perfection v500 photo refurbished plus#
I have an old Canon MG7720 All-in-One printer/scanner that I used to scan old photos and the quality is better than the V600, plus it cost a lot less. Interestingly, searching B&H's website for a 35mm slide scanner, the Epson V600 does not show up, so I feel the information provided by B&H was not accurate. After getting such poor results initially I should have given up on the Epson and sent it back to B&H for credit. I should have bought the Plustek 8200 scanner. Overall I am very disappointed with the V600 and B&H's advise. They now offer a third party software, Silver Fast, which I found to be very confusing to use and useless in improving a scan. Because they are not updated the instructions it is impossible to get help to see why the quality is so poor and if there is any changes that would improve it.

It utilizes one small plastic detent on one side to orientate and hold it in position, but every time slides are removed and/or inserted into the holder it moves out of position.Įpson no longer provides their "professional" software Digital Ice that is needed to properly scan slides, yet all of their instructions still refer to it. The holder used to position up to 4 slides on the scanners glass is poorly designed. I estimate only 20% of the scanned images will be worth keeping. At 3200 dpi it took 3 minutes with the file size 67MB.Īfter importing the images into Lightroom Classic, it requires a lots of adjustments to remove the blurriness/graininess and adjust the colors. At 4800 dpi it took 4 minutes and the files were 150 MB in size. With the resolution set to 6400 dpi it took about 6 minutes to scan 4 slides and the file size was over 260 MB for each image. After several scans at different resolutions I found that 4800 dpi provided the best compromise between image quality, image size and time required to scan. I started changing the various settings, image type, resolution, scanning quality, etc, and found the mage type had to be set at 48-bit color and the resolution had to be increased from the default of 400 dpi.

The scan time was very fast, like the photo, but the image quality was so poor the TIFF images was unusable. Then I scanned 4 slides, at the default settings. Based on their recommendation I ordered the V600.Īfter getting the V600 setup I tested it by scanning a 10x13 printed photo using the default scanner settings and the results were excellent. They said the V600 should produce the results I wanted.

Their last email said the V600 would be the most versatile and the Plustek the most expensive. After several exchanges of emails with B&H sales support they recommended a Plustek 8100, Plustek 8200 and Epson V600 Photo scanner. After reading many reviews, most expressing having poor results, I decided to contact B&H Photo for their expert advise. I didn't want to spend a lot on a scanner since I would only need it for this task and have 2 other scanners for everything else (documents) I scan. The slides have been stored in Kodak Carousel slide trays, with the trays placed inside their box, so the they are dust free. I wanted to convert 2,000 35mm slides taken with a SLR camera to digital and needed a scanner to accomplish that. In order to create the most clean and accurate digital output, it comes with a comprehensive software package, including DIGITAL ICE technology for dust and scratch removal, ArcSoft PhotoStudio for image enhancement, and Easy Photo Fix for restoration of faded images.
