Fully loaded with Microtek's exclusive PictuRescue photo reconstruction and restoration solution featuring built-in Digital ICE technology, the ScanMaker i700 can automatically remove rips, cracks, and wrinkles from photo prints, as well as eliminate dust and scratches from slides and filmstrips.

The EZ-lock holders provide easy film handling for 35mm slides and filmstrips, 4-by-5-inch film, and 120mm film; and the holders lock into place on the scan bed to ensure perfect alignment and consistent scans.

The seven automated buttons on the front of the ScanMaker let you scan images and then email them, upload them to a photo-sharing site, or send them directly to an application of your choice. The buttons can be customized quickly to fit your needs and applications. The scanner connects to PCs and Macs via FireWire and USB 2.0. A separate 15-pin port support optional add-on accessories.

Customer Reviews:

Inconsistant quality .......2006-04-04

When I first got this scanner it was great, I loved the size and the color handeling was pretty much spot on. However, only 6 months in, it has developed a light area where it scanns color images lighter down the side than over the rest of the scan bed. This has come to be unacceptable in some highly critical scans. As much as I would like to love this scanner, I would not buy one again or recommend one - unfortuante.

Nothing but trouble.......2005-06-09

Quirky software and poor documentation make this scanner more trouble than it's worth. Once installed, you can't get some of the bundled software off. The scanner takes forever to warm up and start scanning... even if you just scanned something seconds before. Stay away from this one.

It does not come with Silverfast SE/AI 6.0.......2005-01-14

I got my order 2 days ago. When I open the box and take a look, the software bundle DOES NOT INCLUDE LaserSoft Silverfast SE.It only come with Microtek ScanWizard. However,it seems, the Microtek ScanWizard is usable. I scan a 4"x5" negative and it seems to work ok, I think that I need to play with the scanning software some more to see if I can get it right.

I will submit my detail review later on...
