After receiving the scanner, I had no problems with installing nor using it. The instructions were quite clear and the scanner did most of the work itself.
I highly reccommend this scanner to anyone who is interested in/or has photos that they wish to recover and keep safe.

 Worst purchase ever! October 30, 2008

I bought this scanner at Amazon.com because of the many good reviews I read. Big mistake.
It is a very flimsy piece of 'equipment'.
As I opened the box I heard something in the box that made me suspicious.
Something was moving. As I took out the scanner I heard another bang.
There is a locking mechanism that is supposed to keep the scanner head immobilized. Well the lock broke, because it was shifting from left to right.
I still decided to follow the instructions and install the software. I plugged in the scanner, made sure the scanner was in the 'unlocked' position, and tried to scan an image. I got an error message that the scanner was locked. No it wasn't. I could not even lock it if I tried. It only remained in the 'unlocked position'.
I am very disappointed.
Great product for the price October 30, 2008

I read many reviews before purchasing this product so I was very comfortable making the purchase especially as I got a real bargain at $101.
It's worth taking some serious time when scanning slides to understand all the various scan settings and how they translate to a good scan on good and poor (faded, color shifted, etc.) slides. Once you're comfortable that you've got your settings right then it's straightforward to scan lots of slides. You can only do 4 at a time and depending on the scan resolution you're using this can take a long time. It's a good idea to have something else to do while you're baby-sitting the scanner.
I did find that performing some operations on the PC at the same time as scanning would lock up the software - so be careful especially if you're like me and scan many slides before actually saving them! You learn quickly to save frequently!
Despite the above annoyances this is a great scanner for the price. I've done around 1200+ slides and now it's time to do the negatives and prints!

I vetted this product on ZDnet prior to buying, it got a very good rating by independent reviewers. The canon has preformed above our expectations, very nice peripheral for the cost. Great deal at Amazon.

For the price this is a great Scanner. Had it up and running in about 15 minutes. It scanned slides faster than I thought it would. Am very pleased with this product.
