Using this scanner to digitize 35mm slides that are over 40 years old in some cases. Considering the condition of the slides after all the years the Canon 9000F does an adequate job of digitizing the slides. Some of the slides have a heavy orange tint and they are basically useless to try to create digital images via use of the scanner, there is only so much a scanner can correct. Using an Adobe Photoshop type editor to attempt to correct the color issues is not worth my time. The scanner is fairly fast compared to some others I have heard of in digitizing the slides, 4 at a time. I have around 2000 slides so it will be a very time consuming process to digitize all of them so I will review them using a slide viewer to see which ones I actually need to save via the scanner.

The basic scanner is excellent - nice resolution although it's a bit noisy. The software is the problem. Canon has decided what you will want to do with the scanner and have structured the software accordingly. If you want to do something a little bit different, I think you can but it becomes a major battle fighting the defaults on the software. It is only intuitive if you have a twisted Canon mind - otherwise it's really difficult to adjust. On normal pics, the colors are great but on transparencies, they get washed out very easily. The base controls are not accessible for fine adjustment of exposure in scanning. Too smart means in practice not smart enough. The Epson scanning control software is MUCH easier to use.

This scanner is great and easy to use. I had the Epson V600 and the interface was ridiculous. Also, it kept cropping my photos for no reason. The canoscan scans the whole frame and I haven't had any issues.

Excellent color scans. The user interface is a bit clunky. My older HP and Epson scanners were easier to use. But new stand-alone scanners are apparently no longer being made. Among the existing ones this Canon is a good choice. I had to avoid Epson because my V550 (an otherwise sweet scanner) turned out to be incompatible with Windows 10 when I upgraded.

Good old mid-level scanner, antiquated software. Beautiful colors and detail scanning original watercolors. Driver works with Windows 10 - a minor miracle. Scans fast and quiet enough. They don't make them like this anymore at affordable price. Get it while you can.
