Not for your film negatives! [Posted on 2006-11-27]
If you are planning to scan film strips (it does not even work with mounted slides) this is certanly NOT the scanner. It crops the image and you will expend the rest of your life moving the back light one frame per scan.
Amazing scanner, compact but powerfull [Posted on 2007-01-31]
Excelent product, quick, simple use, and with years of use granted.
If you are looking for a complete scanner, this is your best choice.
You will not regret.
Good scanner, lousy software [Posted on 2007-02-08]
Canon has never released a Universal/Intel binary of their Mac OS X driver. The UI is cheap. If they fixed the software, this would be a great product.
If you can get one of these, do it [Posted on 2007-04-12]
too bad it's end of sales, as this does meet all the postive reviews posted here. was looking for a scanner for general home use and photo scanning... the reviews for the newer versions seemed to be not as glowing as those for the 500F. Got a chance to get a refurbed unit and it's great. the photoshop editing software doesn't have the interface that one expects from Mac software, but functionality is very good. One cable for usb/power is very nice, and the combination buttons on the front (scan&mail) are convenient. all in all, this continues to be a greate little desktop scanner.
A Lemon of A Scanner [Posted on 2008-02-08]
A fast, powerful OCR scanner is what I had hoped for, but instead got a slow scanner with presumed OCR technology that doesn't work well. Furthermore, the scanner software that comes with the scanner is terrible, and has a poor working interface. I do not recommend this scanner. Look elsewhere.
