Product Description:
The Epson Perfection V500 Photo features a built-in transparency unit for positive or negative film up to medium format. It scans 12 frames of 35mm filmstrip, four frames of mounted 35mm slides or 1 frame of 6x12cm medium format film at once, ideal for preserving old family images. Four easy access buttons are located on the front of the scanner to initiate scan to application, scan to PDF, scan to email and copy. They offer a quick and easy way to scan an image without the need to access settings on the computer. The scan to PDF function allows an image or multiple pages to be scanned and automatically saved to a specified PDF file, while the scan to email button allows documents or images to be copied and sent anywhere in the world at the touch of a button. Software provided with the Perfection V500 Photo includes the new Epson Scan 3.2 and Epson Creativity Suite. Epson Scan is designed to make scanning easy with its automatic mode and home mode. The needs of the advanced user are addressed with the professional mode. Epson Scan 3.2 offers high compression multi-page PDF scanning and allows ICC profiles to be embedded into the scanned files. Colour reproduction for negative scanning delivers superior image quality in critical or mixed lighting conditions. It also offers an advanced backlight correction to improve the overall visibility in the image. Digital ICE Technology ensures dust and scratches are completely removed from colour films, creating high-quality results.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Could not install with Vista
I started with high hopes, but after 4.5 hours with Epson tech support (level 1, level 2 and level 3 - I now can uninstall and reinstall drivers in my sleep) and 2.0 hours with HP tech support, and another 4+ hours poking around on the Internet for solutions, I never was able to get the thing to work. The drivers would install, but then Vista could not find them. Using Vista Home Premium, SP1. Obviously Vista and the drivers don't speak to each other. Have had no problem with other devices and ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - no frames to scan old large negatives
I have a lot of old family negatives taken with the 120 and 616 box cameras.
They will not fit in the frames provided with the scanner.
Adobe editing program doesn't work with the Vista operating system.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - NICE unit! ...but not too speedy...
The Epson V500 Photo scanner is an extremely nice unit. It accommodates photographs, 35mm color negatives and B&W negatives, 35mm mounted slides, large format negatives, and documents up 8.5" x 11" and A4-sized sheets.

The scanned images are awesome! I am extremely pleased with the job this scanner does with my old 35mm mounted slides. I've also had great success scanning old family photos.

Here's how the scanner works:

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great !!! Bought for scanning slides.
I have owned several scanners including two pro-sumer grade Epsons, a UMAX, and 3 Microteks (one pro-grade). Only one of my former scanners did a respectable job with slides and it cost around $1,000 about two years ago. This Epson does an equivalent if not better job than the high end Microtek I used that cost 5 times as much. Slide scanning with a flat-bed has never been so good as it is now with this Epson. Scan times seem just under one minute per slide at 2400 dpi. Set-up was quick. Very pleased.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great scanner
I am using the Epson V500 with Windows Vista and the results are excellent. The software installed without a problem. Refer to the users manual for details. Several hundred slides, Polaroid's and prints have been scanned and the results printed. This is a well-made machine, easy to set up (do refer to the user manual) and fun to use. The greater the resolution of your scan the longer it will take to complete your task. It is worth the time and effort.
