    Epson Perfection V550 Color Photo, Image, Film, Negative & Document Scanner with 6400 dpi (Certified Refurbished)

    • For years, I have been looking for a scanner capable of scanning, restoring, and improving my color slides and old color negatives
    • Tech support blames the slide but all our slides are mounted in the same agfa plastic frames
    • I recently found some 1930's negative film slides and the HP was horrible
    • I've been using this scanner for about a month, scanning hundreds of 35mm negative strips, some 35mm positive slides, a few medium format negatives, and also some prints
    • I have yet to try slides and the digital ICE doesn't work on prints.
    • However, slides and negatives for some reason, are terrible
    • This product works well, but as a number of other reviews say, the slide/negative carriers are very flimsy and will not hold even moderately curved negatives.
    • Scanning negatives and slides like a champ!
    • I cannot recommend this unit due to the terrible failure when scanning slides
    • I haven't used the slide/negative feature yet, but the machine looks well
    • I've been using this scanner for about a month, scanning hundreds of 35mm negative strips, some 35mm positive slides, a few medium format negatives, and also some prints
    • Low price for a product that is easy to set up, has a great manual that installs with the product, and converts negatives and slides with incredible clarity.
    • Tech support blames the slide but all our slides are mounted in the same agfa plastic frames
    • Used scanner for over 4000 slides / Very easy to use and with good results
    • I highly recommend this scanner!Note: the image is a scanned slide from a trip my grandparents took in 1963.
    • I have now scanned, restored, and enhanced over 1,000 color slides that had been sitting in storage for over 30 years
    • It has the ability to scan medium format negatives and 35 mm slides, but I don't have any on those formats
    • I am enjoying scanning slides that are over 60 years old and I am amazed at how well they are turning out
    • Another grave disappointment is the silly plastic slide holder
    • Enhances color on faded pictures, does good job scanning slides.
    • The Digital ICE setting is only available when scanning negatives/slides however.
    • It comes with a 35mm slide/negative film holder, which can handle 4 slides to scan at once, which still can be time consuming.
    • needed a decent, reasonably cheap but still quality photo, slide, and negative copier all in one
    • Scans 50 year old degraded slides, and allows them to be brought back up to a usable state with photo editng software that is readily available.
    • Fitting slides into that thing is a pain, and as others have said, they are pretty flimsily made
    • It has frames for lining up negatives or slides to make copies of
