HP A826 Home Photo Printer Review

Customer Review

I received this as a birthday gift and absolutely love it. It is a little expensive but I think it is well worth the money. The pictures have excellent quality and it is extremely user-friendly, even for someone like me who can barely put paper in a printer. I turned it on without reading the directions and it told me to insert the ink cartridge and the paper. I didn't even know where to start so I pushed the button on the screen that said "show me how" and it did and made it so easy. I have already printed so many pictures and love it!

*UPDATE*
I have now owned this printer for a while and I still think it is by far the best photo printer I have ever used. I actually just used it to print out all my Christmas cards and was able to use the printer to crop the photo i wanted, add a caption, and put a frame on the photo...all on the printer. I will say there is one con and that is that the clip art selection is very limited, but I don't see myself wanting to add clip art to my photos that often so it's really not a big deal.

Canon Pixma mini320 Compact Photo Inkjet Printer (2172B002) Review

Customer Review

Great photo printer. Very easy to use. I had it out of the box and printing from my Canon camera in about 10 minutes. I am very happy with the photo resolution. True to life colors also a big plus. Very fast 4+6 print speed, about 10 seconds per print.
Lots of options.
All in all, a very good little printer.

Customer Review

Does a fantastic job with 35mm slides.
I especially like the full version of Silverfast that came with the scanner.

I would recommend this scanner to any professional or high end ametuer.

Nikon Super CoolScan 5000 ED Film Scanner Review

Customer Review

The scanner works well and its operation is straight forward. It is surprisingly noisy in operation, but this is apparently normal.

Be prepared for large files, if you want the hightest resolution digital photos from film. The high resolution of the film scan yields 20 megapixel digital photos from 35mm film. This means a large (50 Mb JPEG) per photo. Not everything needs to be scanned at highest quality. You can adjust the resolution of the scan, or the quality of the output file, to suit your needs.

A film camera, coupled with the scanner, yields the hightest resolution digital photos. This means my SLR film camera (which has not been used since I started using digital SLR) will now see service when I want the highest quality photos.

Epson Perfection V700 Photo Color Scanner Review

Customer Review

The Epson Perfection V700 is a high-quality scanner that does a great job with a variety of input materials. The interchangeable slide and negative holders may seem a bit flimsy, but they have held up well and produce excellent scans--after a bit of practice adjusting various settings. The included OCR software does an amazingly good job converting average quality printed material to text for Word, although I haven't yet tried it with poor quality print. In general, I'm very happy with the scanner and would recommend it to others.

    Epson Perfection 4490 Photo Scanner Review

    Customer Review

    Maybe I'm still "starry eyed" from the positive things about this scanner, but so far, I'm very pleased with the scanner. I purchased it from a local store, where the sales rep highly recommended it over other brands. If I had read some of the reviews posted, maybe I'd have thought twice about longevity, but it was worth every penny when my son's school report was lost from my children's computer. Thankfully, we had printed a copy of his report to review, because when it was deleted from his computer, I was able to scan it into the OCR program that came with the Epson 4490 (ABBYY). It quickly and easily converted it into a Word document and he was able to make the changes to his report the night before it was due. I have scanned everything from pictures, negatives and slides- all were done quickly. The automatic image restoration with Adobe Photo Elements has worked just as well as the products description says it will. The few pictures I have restored with it are probably also worth the cost of the whole scanner. I hope it is still working as well in a few months... of course, I'm not planning on heavy use, not scanning thousands of slides. I would think if that is your goal, you should invest in a more expensive unit. But- you never know!
