We ordered this scanner for one of our museums. It has been better than we could have imagined. We are able to to look in the backgrounds of the pictures and read signs, see things we hadn't been able to make out, and identify people. We are so pleased with this scanner's performance that we are ordering another one for one of our other museums. I would highly recommend this product to anyone needing to archive photos.

By zygote

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

Pros: It works just fine! I was really surprised to discover that "negatives"are converted to a "Positive" picture. Con: It takes about 1 minute to scan each slide.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice Scanner

By joed1746

from Colorado

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

I purchased this scanner to transfer 35mm slides to digital. It does a good job and it will transfer four slides at a time. However, my dad took at least 6000 pictures in this format, so the conversion process is slow. The pixel definition is great and it beats getting this process done with a commercial outfit.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best scanner I've used

By cafox513

from Santa Monica, CA

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

I've only used this to scan flat items -- usually color work from magazines, for reference. The fact that it folds almost flat is a boon! I've used various weights to flatten the items I'm scanning, so far without damaging the unit luckily. I've used it off and on for more than a year with no real problems at all. But all ain't perfect. The routing of the two cables could be better -- they do get in the way. And I fear I will bang the flipped-over top on something important when opening it all the way, though that hasn't happened yet. Installation instructions were weak, but what else is new.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Excellent Choice for Home

By Old Former Marine

from San Bernardino, CA

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

I was looking to scan a mess of slides. Checked reviews on line. The Epson V300 kept popping to the top with rave reviews. Now I'll add my rave to theirs. This has been an excellent plug and play scanner with excellent output quality and terrific ease of use (my learning curve was about 10 minutes). Love the ability to scan multiple pages to a single PDF document. My only gripe now is that I put the slide tray away somewhere safe so I wouldn't lose it or have it broken. Now I can't find it.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Joyce

from Palm Bay, FL

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

Since I wanted to scan a lot of photographs I picked this unit for the high resolution and I am completely happy with the quality. Actually it exceeded my exceptions. Of course, I use it for all my scanning needs, not just photos, because everything comes out perfectly clear, my artwork and personal archival needs as well. It's quick to fire up too.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice

By HermanXP

from Lomira, Wisconsin

Comments about Epson B11B193081:

I use the V300 for a variety of things and it preforms flawlessly. At present I am scanning old photos into a file and with the help of Photo Shop the photo will come out in better shape than the one that it was scanned from. The Epson V300 has never let me down I any of the many operations I have ask it to do.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
