Best scanner for under $500

Date of Review:  Feb 10, 2005
The Bottom Line: This inexpensive scanner has top-notch scan quality and does equally well on prints and films. Simply the best in its class.
Review: I simply love the Canon CanoScan 4200F flat scanner for prints and films. It's fast (both in scanning and transferring to the PC), quiet, and has superb scan quality, esp. on 35mm negatives. (I haven't tried scanning 35mm slide films.)

At last, a fast, quiet, cheap scanner that does nearly everything!

Date of Review:  Nov 13, 2005
The Bottom Line: A fast, high resolution, quiet, cheap scanner with good software, especially useful for photocopying and for high-quality archiving of transparencies, film, photos and documents. Slow to warm up.
Review: What's it useful for?
I use my scanner mainly for photocopying, but I also want to archive all my old transparencies and photos in digital form. I will therefore specifically comment about these two uses, both of which the CanoScan 4200F...

Works like it is supposed to

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: Buy it. It works like it should with no headaches.
Review: Load the software before you plug the machine into the computer. I don't know what happens if you don't because I heeded the dozen stickers and boldface warnings. The reward was one of those rare everything-works-like-it-should experiences. Our last...

CanoScan

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2005
Review: I guess a lot of people choose a brand. I bought this because my experience of the brand has been of good quality at an affordable price. I did look at other brands but what clinched this for me was the opportunity to put slides and film into it...

CanoScan 4200 F:A Great Scanner

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2006
Review: I bought the Canon CanoScan 4200 F Scanner because I needed a scanner that would scan film negatives well, but was cheap. This scanner worked well. It's simple and easy to use and comes with a variety of software choices. Not to mention, the film...

Good Price but Poor Performance with Graphics

Date of Review:  May 23, 2005
Review: I had an older HP 5200c scanner that needed to be upgraded. I recently purchased this 4200F Canon scanner because of its good ratings from Consumer Reports for speed, resolution and price. However, when I scanned a black and white drawing, the only...

Canon 4200F scanner

Date of Review:  Dec 23, 2005
Review: I purchased the Canon because it is one of the least expensive scanners I could find that would scan 35mm slides. It does do this very well. However, Canon claims it will use USB 2.0 -- this is not necessarily true. The scanner will work on USB 1.1...

Very Good Scanner

Date of Review:  Dec 24, 2005
Review: Fast scanner, sharp pictures, vibrant colors. The scanned colors are a little different from the original but not enough to be a problem. The software is simple but adequate. The USB cable uses a proprietary connector at the scanner end. This may be...
