 Works with Photoshop 7 Just Fine August 26, 2008
Hobbyist2006
Overall, what I really love about this wonder from Canon is the fact that for just a tiny 3-watt power consumption, the 600F makes amazing film scans all the while looking cool and without making too much noise. I bought this scanner for the main purpose of scanning negative 35mm films at home. I am sure all those accollades it got for conventional platen scanning were also well deserved. That USB power and data cable "all-in-one" has got to be one of the top 5 clever inventions of the decade. Only wireless power supply would be better and it has yet to be invented!
I'll limit my review to scanning film.
The key to scanning 35mm films is the Film Adapter Unit (FAU.) For this reason, it is very important that you use and store it carefully. One scratch on its glass elements and you'll potentially ruin many important images. In actual use, the FAU took some getting used to. You have to carefully place it on the platen glass and attach its cable. You have to delicately place your film strip on the guides. You have to remember to put back the FAU's cloth protection on it when the FAU is not in use. You can easily scratch the all important glass elements if you're not careful. All this hassle however pays off handsomely when your clean, film scans magically appear on the preview window. Too bad if you have other film sizes or mounted slides. The 600F does only 35mm film strips, but it does this singular film job very well.
The default 35mm film scan resolution of "1200 dpi" resulted in an image with 1660_by_1088 pixels dimension. I figured if you use the maximum optical resolution scan of "9600 dpi" you'll get a 13248_by_8730 pixel image since your scan area (about 1.38inch by 0.91inch) remains the same. Unless I'm mistaken dividing the above by 300ppi, you'll get an image 44-inch by 29-inch!
If you have the dough you may opt to get a dedicated film scanner like one of the those Nikon Coolscans and scan like crazy. But the 600F's tiny power consumption, neat layout, cool design, great results and ScanGear's accessibility to Photoshop 7 all combine to make home film scanning a very rewarding personal hobby for me. With the caveat of being very careful in handling the FAU, I highly recommend the Canoscan 600F.
Great scanner August 25, 2008
R. Cornell (Santa Barbara, CA United States)
We wanted to replace another Canon CanoScan scanner which was several years old. We have been extremely pleased with the LIDE 600. I do scans of both old negatives and book pages and love the fact that this scanner does both beautifully. The tilt top will accommodate large books, which we cannot do with our all-in-one printer. Great all-around scanner.
Document scanning August 19, 2008
J. Baker
Few of the reviews posted here covered its document scanning capabilities, so it was with some trepidation that I ordered it since my primary use is for documents. And I can say that I am very pleased with the device. Software installation (Windows XP Pro) was a snap and operation is intuitive and easy. Other positives are (1) thin design, (2) optional upright position [takes up about 4" of desk space], (3) ability to scan multiple pages into one PDF file and (4) powered off of the USB connection on the computer. It's pretty fast for a personal scanner. Loading, scanning, and unloading a page take about 15-20 seconds. That is plenty fast enough for me. The quality of scanned doument at 300 dpi is fine. Even if I never use it to scan a single photo, I am very happy with it.
Lives up to "Good" reviews July 24, 2008
Phil Gunn
The scanner is great....it is a shame that the film copier part does not adapt to 35mm film slides.
