Canon CanoScan 9950F review
Canon CanoScan 9950F The Canon CanoScan 9950F gets our vote for one of the coolest flatbed scanner designs on the market. Its blue-backlit power button and shiny, black body make it look more like a BMW than an office machine. Alas, looks aren't...
Adequate all-in-one scanner; quiet operation
Spartan feature set; lackluster scans.
An OK scanner for an OK price.

Canon CanoScan 9950F
The Canon CanoScan 9950F ($399.99 direct) flatbed scanner encroaches on territory usually reserved for film scanners. With a claimed 4,800 pixel-per-inch (ppi) optical resolution and 9,600-ppi mechanical resolution, plus the ability to scan film at...
Slide-scanning features are far ahead of most flatbed scanners. Color-restore feature. Good OCR accuracy. Scans directly to PDF format
No ADF. Dust and scratch removal feature doesn't do much
The Canon CanoScan 9950F is an all-purpose scanner with good OCR accuracy, one-button scanning to PDF format, and a bundled document-management program. But the emphasis is on film, with scans of reasonably good quality and a design that lets you...

CanoScan 9950F
Image and film flatbed scanner
The CanoScan 9950F walks a fine line in the advanced consumer/professional market and, while there are many features in this new model, some of them require an excellent eye and a little time in Photoshop (or the software included) for best results....

CanoScan 9950F
The CanoScan 9950F offers high optical resolutions, improved scan quality, and more intuitive software controls.
Excellent color and detail capture from both transparency and reflective media.
None significant
The CanoScan 9950F bumps the optical resolution up from 3,200 dpi to 4,800 dpi. It supports both FireWire 400 and USB 2.0 connections and ships with a stack of film holders to hold just about any common format

Canon CanoScan 9950F
The Canon CanoScan 9950F is a pricey powerhouse that can scan both prints and film at a maximum optical resolution of 4800dpi. Producing crisp, colour...
High speed, good scan quality, neat film and transparency tools
Nothing notable
Canon's CanoScan 9950F is a great scanning option for expert users who need high-quality powerful tools, and speed.

Canon CanoScan 8000F
If you are into digital imaging, a scanner may well be regarded as a key peripheral for your set-up. If that's so, the Canon CanoScan 8000F could be the unit you're looking for.
Thanks to its solid feature set and good image reproduction quality, the CanoScan 8000F is a flatbed scanner that should appeal to anyone who's serious about digital imaging. Although not quite as accomplished as the Epson Perfection 3170 Photo, the...

Canon CanoScan 9950F review
Will its resolution and pedigree translate into top scans?
Superb scan quality ; Decent scanning speeds ; Versatile film scanning
Marginal quality advantage for price ; Expensive ; Not the fastest
Excellent reflective scans, but the Epson 4990 is faster. Only film fans could justify the price.

Canon CanoScan 9950F
You'll get solid--but not spectacular--scans from this cool-looking flatbed.
Adequate all-in-one scanner ; Quiet operation
Spartan feature set ; Lackluster scans
You'll find well-organized FAQs, tutorials, downloads, and accessory information on the Canon Web site. You can download complete manuals in either HTML or as a PDF. Canon also offers an interactive troubleshooter to help you isolate and solve your...
