Epson Perfection V750-M

Review Credibility: Excellent Veteran reviewer M. David Stone puts the Epson Perfection V750-M through its paces, saying the scans are very high quality and that the fluid mount works for hiding scratches in black and white film. The driver Epson ships with the scanner may not work as well as the alternative SilverFast driver also bundled with the scanner, he says. He compares the V750-M to the V700, saying the V750-M's better optics are aimed at professionals, producing "top-quality scans for photographic prints and film."

Review Credibility: Excellent David Brooks compares the Epson Perfection V750-M Scanner with a professional Konica film scanner and the Epson V700, finding that the scanning quality of the V750-M is comparable to the high-end film scanner. He praises the fluid mount capability, and he compares the output of old and new slides, transparencies and prints. "These are occasions when I really enjoy being proven wrong," he writes. "In this case I stand corrected in my support of what had become conventional wisdom -- that flat-bed consumer scanners do not provide a film scanning capability competitive with dedicated film scanners."

Review Credibility: Good More than 50 customers at Amazon.com give the Epson Perfection V750-M scanner an overall rating of 3.8 out of 5 stars. Clearly, user expectations are high for a machine that has one of the higher price tags in the market segment. Most say the V750-M's scans are truly excellent, but some say that experience is marred by lack of instructions, less-than-professional-level software and spotty customer service experiences when hardware problems arise.
