Epson provides TWAIN drivers on their website so you can use the scanner with any scanning app that you want, not just their proprietary software.Īll the Epson software is compatible with the major operating systems, Windows 10 and Mac OS X.

The software also syncs with cloud storage providers like Google Drive, Dropbox or Evernote. It can also automatically detect the correct orientation of your photos and adjust them. The software provides Digital ICE features for removing scratches and dust from film. The Epson Perfection V600 photo scanner comes with a software bundle that contains: Epson Easy Photo Fix, Epson Copy Utility, ArcSoft PhotoStudio, ABBYY FineReader Sprint Plus OCR. It is certainly not as good as the V800 or V850 but you have to keep in mind that it costs far less than them.

There is also another film holder for 120 / 220 film. You can adjust all the options like exposure and gamma. You can put independent frames or complete film strips. It comes a transparency unit that allows you to scan up to 12 frames of negative film (You can also use positive film). Now for the film part: This flatbed film scanner is compatible with 35mm film format and medium format film. For film we always recommend you scan in the biggest possible pixel density you can. It also has a speedy scanning time of approximately 6 seconds at 300 dpi, not that you will be scanning film at that resolution.

The scanner weighs approximately 9 lbs, so it is easy to carry around. It connects to your computer using a standard Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. The sensor works with a ReadyScan LED lamp that doesn’t need to warm up. It has a color depth of 48-bit when you scan in color and 16-bit when you do so in grayscale. This is important because for film we want the best type of image sensor and that is the CCD. The scanner has an optical resolution of 6400 dpi from a CCD sensor with no interpolation. The V600 is one of the best scanners for film that you can buy because it is a great balance between film scanning features, image resolution and price.
