Scanning Photos

[Tim Shirey]

I just caught the most recent message of this thread so my apologies if this
is a repeat of anything mentioned already.

Last week I purchased the NEW "Epson Perfection 3200 Photo" scanner and have
been thrilled with it.  The scanner has only been available in stores as of
1-2 weeks ago (based on the Epson website release date and local store
supply dates).  It falls into the price slot held by the Epson 2450 Photo
scanner.

I was looking for a flatbed scanner that would do a good job with
transparencies/slides and this one is great!  It's 3200x6400 dpi resolution!
I've also appreciated the fast firewire connection.  Mine came with the new
Mac OSX version of the Epson Scan software as well as Mac OSX version of
SilverFast SE 6.0, which I don't use. I noticed that there is the "Pro"
version of this scanner available - the scanner seems to be the same - only
different software ... having quickly scanned over the specs on the Epson
website.
