Bruce K.: We decided to digitalize some of our old pictures. I have an Agfa SnapScan 1212u and love it. But after a few hours of scanning, it's showing its age. The scans take a long time and progress was definitely limited by 90s technology. So I did a lot of research on the web. It seemed to come down to two scanners for photo scanning, Canon's CanoScan 8800F and Epson's Perfection V500. Both retail for the same price, but the Epson is much cheaper discounted, including on Amazon. The Epson Perfection V600 is not discounted and I didn't really see a difference between it and the V500 so I never considered it.
Based on the reviews, the 8800F and V500 seemed to be pretty much equivalent. But on most reviews, the Canon usually was the preferred scanner chosen. The overwhelming 5 star reviews on Amazon seemed to support what others on the web were saying. So based on those numbers, I chose the 8800F.
