I had bought a Canon LIDE scanner (for less) but it was garbage - had to return it.

Bought this one on sale from NewEgg and was scanning literally minutes after it arrived.

Great Scanner 10282004 12:59:24 PM Comments: I needed a scanner mainly for film strip negatives and based on the previous reviews here, I chose the 3170 and It turned out to be a good choice.

Within 20 minutes of taking the unit out of the box I was scanning my old negatives without any problems.

Its so easy that anybody could do it.

PM Comments: What a great scanner It does a fantastic job of scanning old pictures and slides.

But beware, for some reason after long use the eyeballs on people start to disappear on the scans (slides only).

We have exchanged our scanner three times, but it still does the same thing.

B. Old Negatives Come Alive 8262004 7:21:32 AM Comments: I cant say enough about the ability of this machine in scanning old negatives.

I have a collection of probably 500, 50 to 60 year old Bamp;W negatives in 120,220, and 314 x 414 sheet film sizes.

The ability to scan these negatives, crop them to desired size, and then enhance them with the included Adobe SW is amazing.

The end product is better than I was able to produce with the Omega enlarger and wet processing in the darkroom 50 years ago.

PM Comments: For years Ive wanted a scanner capable of decently archiving my old slides (as well as photos and documents of course).

It seemed to take forever for price and quality to reach a point where I could jump in with a reasonable expectation of good film scanning, and the Epson 3170 was my choice.

As Ive done very little scanning before and am not a serious image file editor, I havent a lot of experience for comparison.

I can only say that over the last few days Ive scanned over 200 slides at 3200dpi resolution and Im very satisfied with the result.

The software installed easily and is very intuitive, such that Ive been using professional mode and havent needed to refer to any help files yet.

Preview scanning is quick, and gives me a very good indication of whether the color restoration option is suitable for each image.
