Canon CanoScan 9000F Mark II movie and Negative Scanner (9600x9600 dpi, 35mm film, 120 film format, USB 2.0) Black (Office supplies & stationery)

Customer Review

Hello,
This scanner is just awesome. Slide scanning, color negative scans - easy, time consuming but incredibly the experience.
But always the first ...

Years done nothing - have been lazy - this must surely someday the slide collection (10,000+ slides & negatives) on the hard drive.
A work to which you actually do not rumkommt, is not without being pixelated land on the garbage collection.
Pushed, pushed - again a few with the (old) made slide scanner - but the results were essentially unsatisfactory.

Here read this flatbed scanner (I still have a CANON MX800 with transmitted light scanner) bought the previous model Canon 9000F very many people were so happy, so put money into their own hands and the successor (Mark II). Unwrapped, connected, only the Scanner Software ScanGear and the Adobe color space installed scanner connected to the computer - ready. Then open the software, the default settings changed (eg where ScanGear to save the scan, and the file format). It's that easy. In the photo cabinet, just any old photo paper bags pulled out of not mounted slides ... and started.

It is currently running a series, because my daughter celebrated the 6th anniversary (so that was about 13 years ago) and in the other envelope are unframed slides from the construction.
Dear reader, please leave me the fun times at first not to report on the scan results but simply to report only the joy of the (last) time to see live images on the screen.
I myself am engineer, I could now write about the quality of the images here and there a little niggle, but what made me much more excited is the fact that it (of course) really works perfectly, the results already in the raw scan all great (even if I have to post-process), the dust Lint mach-off function actually works just fine, the whole takes miserable long (but hey, in the next few years I shall have get through) - but most importantly : I have a lot of fun, with my family, the "latest" 8 Dias, who has finished the scanner then so 'ner forty-five minutes, again to be considered together (!).
This is art! So technology brings real added value - for the whole family - and I see an opportunity 17 years analogue photography finally to capture to disk. Slides / negatives everything in the closet.
I have long wondered if I still have the old 5600F or get this here is, the price difference would be noticeable. Those who do not need quite as watching on's money now, the following must be said: After me now about 100 slides, the price difference is already pretty damn.

Let's talk briefly about how it works - so that the 'normal' analog 'amateur photographer "with hundreds or thousands of negatives and / or slides can imagine what:
- The scanner is (also) a normal document scanner - in my view, but much too good (as I take my next Canon printer with integrated scanner)
- Is in the lid (known) a white deck pad that must be removed (to pack in a clean bag) so that can be scanned in the "transmitted light process".
- There are several "framework": a framed for slides, one for 35mm film strips (as fit two film strips of up to 6 images in, depending on how the movie was just cut earlier.) And one for 120 roll film (formerly for medium format cameras)
- Choose filmstrip holder, "open" the rails, slides or negative strips into the packaging (runs around, face down, therefore a reversed 'R' on the mount printed) and the rails again close (the film strips are so firmly held)
Place holder with film strip on the glass plate, the two "tabs" on the brackets lock the holder parallel to the scan direction -
- Closing the cover
- Click with ScanGear Preview - the preview goes jiffy - all slides are already displayed as single pictures, slides, negatives and select scan (!) - That's it.
- The first major advantage: When removing the slide / negative holder one must not touch the glass plate!
- Second big advantage of 9000F Mark II: The cover remains at a 45-degree angle by itself when opened - very handy and so far as I know vs. a big advantage. the predecessor.

A picture in 3: 2 analog format has a setting of 4800dpi about 31 megapixels and needs depending on the quality and file format according to space, the first lossless PNG format so the 40MB / image. But you can also scan with a lower resolution and / or save it in JPG format with medium / low compression to keep file sizes to reduieren significantly (but then halt losses, what you should really decide only after the image processing).

Please Assume that the final image still needs to be cut (dark edges above and / or below and / or right and / or left) and possibly then the image needs to be reworked. Something can sharpen, not hurt, possibly a little darker, depending on the color film correcting etc. - but first to the hard drive it!

What is also highly recommended, is before thinking about how the film series to be stored on the computer, for me there was mainly the end of the analog time a considerable chaos and confusion in the collection - and do not forget also to highlight what is already scanned ,

My first series of slides was extremely reddish - has a superimposed slide film have been - no problem - I have asked the color correction to "medium" already during the scanning, the white balance worked just fine, the colors were very well corrected during scanning.

So - and now ran to the slides and / or negatives, any discussion about quality not care to complain at a high level is unnecessary as there is only a matter to bring the slides / negatives finally on the computer. That part really gives good results.
Thank you Canon! Well done.
Just buy it from a previous scan muffle with now hell of a lot of work to do :-)

Greetings and have fun
