CNET Review
The Good: Produces high-quality scans; easy to install; comes with adapters for slides and 35mm or medium-format film; nice price; lets you save scanning presets.
The Bad: Annoying software package; no manual; scans slowly at highest optical resolution.
The Bottom Line: The Epson Perfection 3170 scans like a champ--and it's cheap, too.
