Photo Scan: Quick, almost immediately and without directly visible defects. there are just the last 5%, where it is in relation to earnings will quickly exorbitantly expensive then.
Film / Negative Scan: Quick, surprisingly well, a small format negative is scanned with about 27 megapixels and the result is remarkable, only it acts not as sharp as you would then wish. There are quite a few more percent that are needed for 100% rating. Because the Epson Perfection 3490 was deutlisch better. Since you have a violation of the film clearly recognized and was not distracted by color fringing. But for coal you also get the time not so good scanner. Between the V300 and the comparable model of Medion are in dot sharpness and density still worlds.
Who wants to make his negatives and slides quickly intuited that is good at first operated with the Epson V300, especially since the normal holiday photo film from the compact camera even theoretically delivers the sharpness you could achieve.
This scanner is nothing for quality created photos from the ambitious amateur and professional photographers fraction. But it really enough to take pictures for the Web or the presentation on HD-TV or projector and the enlargements are well used. 27 megapixels you do not need normal.
Those who want to scan their old material with souvenir value and make available (the snippet from the Super-8 film, one has yet, ABE is unable to project them and want to enlarge), which is here already more correct.
100Euro are in this purchase no risk, because you get a solid film scanner that delivers convincing results.
2. Software Features
First minus here, ever confident in an otherwise very simple undguten software over Tonwertoptimierung, color correction, noise reduction and restoration automatic provides a rock-solid base tool and also me, spoiled as a professional device users. Pipette and profiling you can easily reach the desired result, provided it permits the submission.
The minus: When FilmScan he just can not find the right clips that one then also can not manually set at lousy material. Within the window, you can indeed draw a frame, but in contrast to the old software, you can not touch on all the free access and draw and edit the window manually. therefore you have to cheat here. I cut strips the negative and launched gerahm changed individually (as a last resort) or just on B & W film, or put the slide, and then made into photo shop the post. (Has 2 disadvantages:. Can be very difficult to use the 48-bit color resolution as an advantage, because the range is so out controls of hardware, then that's just a lazy compromise.)
The batch mode is in this context only moderately useful. The automated scan then often fails to positioning errors.
But I can reassure the Nnormalfall it all goes smoothly, only the boundaries are not always predictable.
3. Ergonomics
Laterally folding closing lid, which is just hooked almost vertically stable weak, but probably standard. Here I would like also at half opening a breakpoint. The button, which incidentally trigger very well thought out features that could be forward, and just as the USB port could apply less, just like the PSU connector. An angled connector, as in the power supply is a good start would be here at least was.
4. Conclusion
Neat scanner for 100Euro I have seen nothing better. Fast, clever and amazing results. Everything you need to digitize the family album. The transparency unit allows FilmScan, that's what you need it and can be stored in the scanner. 4 stars from the professional;)
