Amazon Customer: Great results! Tip: Play around with settings to find what's ideal for you. You don't want to have scanned 4000 slides before finding out you could have done so with better settings...

Cliente de Amazon: Tiene todos los aditamentos necesarios para realizar digitalizaciones de negativos y transparencias o diapositivas antiguas. El trabajo de mejoramiento de color verdaderamente revive las fotos al momento en que fueron tomadas.
El producto es fabuloso para quienes ya tienen o tuvieron un escáner pero necesitan mucho más y tampoco quieren invertir más allá de 5 mil pesos. Un excelente producto para dar el paso al nivel semi profesional y profesional.
La instalación en Mac es algo confusa pero al final funciona todo perfecto.

RogerRoger: I noticed one major feature difference between the Epson V600 and Canon 9000f (MKII), Epson's driver is primarily closed source or proprietary and the Canon 9000f (MKII) driver is entirely open source code.

There maybe some benefits with the closed source code Epson IScan driver, but history dictates products having open source code drivers usually rival products having only closed source code drivers. The main feature of open source code drivers, the code is backwards and forwards compatible with past and future operating systems. Also, open source code drivers tend to be always readily available, versus closed source code having a tendency of their download mirrors simply disappearing due to internal business decisions.

There is a web page detailing some of the differences between the Epson V600 and Canon 9000f scanner models, by searching with an Internet search engine and using the search term "Epson V600 Canon 9000f MKII versus". This page listing the differences is published within the versus.com domain name.

In brief, the Canon seems to win over the Epson unless you want 16 bit reflective grayscale scans, then the Epson V600 would be your choice. In...

DHueber: A much reviewed product. Also, some very good tech reviews on other web sites. I thought I might have something to add?

I bought this scanner because my new printer/scanner "all in one" (a canon mx340) does not do a good job scanner photos (prints). I had a Mustek several years ago that stopped working, so without getting technical (yet), it was obvious that "all in one" was not very good.
I borrowed an Epson V600 from a friend, and I could see easily that one can get much better scanner for <$200. And you can scan negatives/slides with some flatbed scanners, including both the 9000F and the V600. I expected this to be a bonus, but since they can scan negatives, I wanted to buy the best of the two. And that is all you should expect, the best of the class.

Result. It is a 5 star value for scanning prints, not so good for negatives. I lot of this review is about negatives, because that is where the problems are.

Reviews from serious photographic professionals make it clear that no flatbed scanner is very good at scanning small transparent originals (negatives or slides of 35mm and less). The problem is not just the resolution, but the dynamic range. This...

Hesham Askar: CanoScan 9000 MKII is really great, started using it like few weeks ago, the machine and the software driver are really good for the job, and if you are working with Adobe element or of course photoshop, you don't need anything more to make your old photos alive.....
