Canon CanoScan 4400F Color Image Scanner (1306B002)

I like the product very much. It is has 4 different way to scan. like PDF format and other image format. Another one I like is the PDF book format.

I is worthed to have it.

This scanner is a great deal for this price. I purchased it for a personal project of scanning in negatives. It takes about 4 minutes for the whole process with a 4-framed negative, including the preview scan, scanning in each frame and forwarding to save on the computer.

The quality and color of the images is excellent for ordering even 8X10 images. The software that comes with the product is fine, although I use photo shop CS. It is easy to install and use.

Special note is that it will only scan standard 35 size negatives (I have not tried scanning slides). Unfortunately, after I purchases it, I realized my grandmother also had size 120 file that will not fit into this scanner. I believe it should scan 110 film as well, but I have not tried that yet either.

I do recommend this scanner for personal projects, the timing isn't bad for the price. The ONLY major problem I found was that after a little while (maybe 10-18 negative strips), I find that the software has an error and I have to restart the software and re-scan the last negative. However, that is small in comparison to the price and quality that I am getting.

Most of my work with this scanner has been capturing 35 mm slides taken in the 1940's and 50's. Printed images have been very clear while I am still learning the sort and save options. The scanner is relatively fast considering my tasks. I would like to get another slide holder so I can be loading one tray while one is scanning. I don't know if these trays are available. I have really enjoyed this resonably priced additon to my computer. I have also scanned just a few regular photos which seem to be captured in very good quality.

I bought this scanner because I have a huge volume of slides, prints and negatives to scan and store as digital files. I am also a professional photographer who shoots weddings, portraits, sports, night scenes and nature photographs. It is crtical that I get images with great detail, sharpness, accurate color and low noise. This scanner delivers very well in all those areas. The instructions are easy to follow and set-up for any kind of scanning is very simple. And, if the original item being scanned is of high quality, the scan will be high quality, too. I have scans of old Kodachromes that have been used to make prints as large as 8"x12" with no noticeable loss of sharpness or image quality. Scanned 8"x10" prints have produced high quality prints as large as 20"x30". My only complaint is that the scanner can handle only four slides at a time or one strip of five frames from 35mm negatives. But, overall, I am very happy with the scanner.

This is a pretty good product. Scans can be saved as .jpg or .pdf files. One button touch for email scan. Quality is very good. So far only two negatives: does not always start the first time selected; scanned image broken into pieces. Both are rare occurrences. Would I buy it again, YES!
