The film scanning devices that I linked for you were made specifically for what you want to do and they are much faster and easier to use than most flatbed scanners for converting films into digital formats for the web, or for printing, or archiving, or for whatever. What I consider is avoiding buying a 10 ton truck to carry 1 ton goods? Epson Perfection V800 is better than V370 in performance but do I need it or to buy V370 to get my work done? If V800 is faster than V370 in scanning film negatives what will be the difference in scanning speed?īased on your comments, why not get one of the scanning devices I showed in my links even one that is less than $100us AND get a flatbed MFP (multifunction printer) with a sheet feeder? Then, you will have the best of both. My need is to scan all of my film negative stocks for storage, using the images scanned for website posting only, NOT for printing.

I have been shopping in computer mall here for fast scanner which costs more than USD2,000. The quality of the images scanned is not ideal.
My old Epson scanner is still working but taking lengthy time to complete scanning a film negative and I have to wait during scanning. If you add the time expenditure for the scan, you has to ask yourself if a scanner is worthwhile.Ī current 24 MP digital camera can capture the image in fractions of a second.

Using the professional scanning software SilverFast Ai Studio, this value is increased to an effective 2600 ppi. The Epson Perfection V800 Photo yields an effective resolution of 2300 ppi if the template is scanned with 4800 ppi. I have been shopping stand-alone digital converts here before and they are already out-of-market here. I would prefer flatbed scanner rather than stand-alone digital converter because after treating all old film negatives I still can use it scanning documents.
