I have just bought the Canoscan 8800F after reading the review of scanners published by Which? for slides and negatives they rated the Canon 5* vs the V350 at 3*. Which list as their 3 best buys as the Canonscan 8600F (best for reflective scans), Canoscan 8800f(best for slide/negative scans) and the epson V750 (Good at both reflective and slide/negative).
I have been delighted with the results so far although I have some problem with marks on some negatives as I have posted in this thread.
