Epson Perfection V500 Photo Flatbed Scanner Color Picture Negatives Barely Used
Nov 09, 2021
Epson Perfection V500
Although a slightly older model, this scanner performs equally as well as the Epson Perfection V600. Downloading the utilities from Epson Support, they installed without flaw. Scanning modes provided function from full-auto to professional, full-manual for scanning, cropping, sharpening, color restoration, and dust/scratch removal. Although, some of these features did not provide the quality of image restoration as I was looking through all of the function modes, I did not have a problem creating a quality image file in professional, full-manual mode. Overall, I used this scanner in professional full-manual mode with relative ease, with the exception of having to individually toggle "off," then "on," each photo enhancement attribute to apply them to the photo in the preview window (the check-boxes should have indicated which enhancement attributes were going to be applied when it was preview-scanned).
