Summary: Almost perfect
Review: I purchased this scanner for the 35mm negitive scanning. I wasn't disappointed. I setup the machine, installed the software and was up and running scanning negitives in about 30 Minutes. Very nice negitive scanning at 1200x1200 for the price ( I was not interested in purchasing a 400.00 film scanner). Photo scanning was simular in quality. Overall a good product.
The only thing from making it a 5-Star was the time it took to
scan negitives was about 3 minutes though it seemed like forever.

Summary: For the money you can't go wrong
Review: I use a Mac G4 and I was able to plug this scanner in and start scanning almost immediately. The software iinstalled with no hitches and the plug-in for Photoshop was already there when I opened it up and started scanning. The only thing I really had to do was tweak the colors a little. The first scan or two had too many red tones, but that was easy to fix. All in all for the money, a pleasant surprise. About the only negative is that it is a little slow, but gives you time to get a cup of coffee or check your email and that can't be bad!

Summary: Great scanner for the money!
Review: My first experience with a Canon scanner was horrible. No response was received from Canon after 2 inquiries about a seemingly defective scanner. (Thank-god for ... customer service!)Despite the problems, I rolled the dice on another Canon and am pleased with it. The 660U scans reasonably fast; the picture quality is nice and the film scanner is a fantastic bonus. Hookup was a snap (Windows ME didn't even crash!) and the scanner has performed flawlessly since. The purchase of any Canon scanner over the web would seem to be a significant risk due to the lack of support from Canon. It is simply a pain to have to keep shipping things regardless of who is footing the bill. If you get one that works, you'll be happy with this one.

Summary: It's good for the price
Review: Software is very good. The scanner is good for the price, but it's a little slow and the quality leaves a little bit to be desired. But for under $..., this is a very good buy. If you have 300 for a scanner, go for an epson with a film adapter, it's much faster, and has better scan quality.

Summary: Excellent Scanner; Faced problems with installation !
Review: This is an excellent scanner for the money. Good speed. Clear pictures. Elegant looks. Film scanning is a great feature. But, don't expect the installation to be as easy as others say. I took more than an hour to make it work on my new Windows Me PC. Did everything as per the quick installation guide and the scanner wouldn't work. The scanner would make some noise and an error message would say something like "Cannot communicate with scanner. Check the cables". Then I found the "Driver Update" CD in the pack. (There was no mention about it in the installation guide). It is not mentioned anywhere on this CD why this update is required. Anyway, after I installed whatever is on this CD, the scanner started working. But the film scanning still wouldn't work. I got some error like "Can't determine TWAIN properties". Then, I went to Canon's website and downloaded the driver and the scanning Toolbox programs and everything worked. I would suggest you directly go to Canon's website and download the 3 files (Driver and 2 Toolbox programs for sheet and films scanning) instead of using the CD's that come with this scanner. Be warned that negative Film scanning is very very slow and is not as clear as scanning a print. It is to be used only if you don't have the print.
