  • High-end consumer/entry-level professional scanner
Style: Pro scanner
BLUF: This scanner is versatile, easy to install and use, and capable of handling most scanning needs. Stand out features are the ability to scan slides and negatives, thick books, both letter-sized and A4 documents at very high resolution. Scanning is smooth and reasonably fast. The latest Epson scanning software is available as a free download and in professional mode, it gives a substantial degree of control over all aspects of the scan. Scan output is excellent quality. MORE DETAILS... SLIDES & NEGATIVES: The first thing you notice is how thick the lid is. That's because it's designed to allow scanning of slides and negatives (requiring a light source inside the lid). Some scanners advertise the ability to scan slides & negatives, but only have a narrow opening in the lid that can scan one short strip of 35mm negatives or 4 slides at a time. This can scan 12 slides at a time. It also is designed to handle 35mm and two different medium-format negatives. If you skip using the holders, you can also scan large-format negatives, but you'll need something to hold them flat (I used a piece of plate glass). THICK BOOKS: The next thing you'll probably notice about the lid is that its hinge can be raised a couple inches. In fact, you even lift it off entirely without disabling the scanner. this means that a large book can be placed on the scanner bed easily, without a permanently attached lid getting in the way. DURABILITY: This is a well-built piece of equipment. I first used one at work, and never had any problems with it. I wound up buying one of my own when I started scanning old medium-format negatives. I've had this scanner now for about a decade and it continues to work flawlessly. PORTABILTY: This is for desktop use. It's large and heavy enough that you won't want to lug it around. You could, but it would be kind of a pain. SETUP: Easy plug and play for the most part, using a USB connection. You will want to download the latest Epson scanning software (free download) to get the most out of it. I got lucky: because I'd already been using Epson scanning software, it immediately recognized the scanner and I have the option to select between two scanner types (I use the other scanner when I travel; it's less capable, but much smaller & lighter). ... show more

  • Top Notch - Impressive Results and Fast
Style: Pro scanner
Literally, I'm very much impressed with this scanner. I've been a photographer since 1983 and have taken many 35mm images of professional bands. Looking at original prints from photo labs by which I had brought the negatives to (back in the day) which had poor color calibration and sloppy edits, these scanner puts you in control. With the included software by SilverFast, you can choose the film used such as Kodak Plus ISO 200 (just look at your film strip to ID the film type). The built in template auto calibrates and images turn out accurately. There are other options such as dust removal. The negatives scan fast even at 48bit 2400DPI. It's convenient to have 2 film trays as once is scanning you can load the other. Each tray can hold up 3 strips of film. I am glad to have gotten rid of an older outdated CanoScan 4400 which could take hours and was unable to produce accurate reproductions. Only word of caution is the assembly in connecting the top lid cover with the bottom platen glass section. There's a small cable built in to the top of the scanner which has about 9 pins. There's no marker letting you know which side is up or down on the cable itself. Just be sure to align correctly before inserting so that the pins don't get bent. Use a flashlight if necessary to get a closer look. Overall a great buy. Windows 10 and 11 drivers are on the Epson website. Don't both with the Epson CD unless you have the older Windows 8 or Windows 7. ... show more

  • Very satisfied
Style: Pro scanner
Invaluable - I came across thousands of photographs, film, and slides from grandparents on both sides! I had my eye on this for over a year before I decided to purchase and I’m glad I did. Before, I was using a printer/scanner to digitize old Photos, and it did up to 600dpi, which is great, but this Epson performs up to 6400. 6400!!! So I thought I would be using the Max dpi on this Epson but the files are just absolutely gigantic without any notable quality improvement. So I wouldn’t necessarily purchase it for this aspect. I’m scanning everything at 600 dpi. Scanning the slides is arduous (sliding each one in place) but simple. The scan takes about 3-4 minutes for 12 slides. I really appreciate the slide image editing tools (sharpness, dust removal, color tone correction) as these have markedly improved the quality of the digital images. Overall, this was a big investment but has performed very well and I have enjoyed having it. ... show more

  • D&S Filter Performance is Dissapointing and
Style: Pro scanner
At $1200, the Epson v850 is definitely priced in the professional scanner category. You would expect every single feature of this scanner to perform better than a scanner that costs under $200. However, this scanner disappoints in a major way that Epson still has not been able to resolve. This makes the scanner a complete waste of money for the prosumer who is photo archiving old photos, slides and negatives. The Major Issue: -When scanning from the Epson v850, you have several options, including one of the most important known as the “Dust & Scratches” filter. TWhen enabled, this feature allows the scanner and its software to analyze the image to remove small flecks of dust, scratches or tears which may exist on the photo or negative. -When you enabled this feature on the Epson scanner, the result is extremely disappointing. The result is an image with MAJOR COLOR COMPRESSION throughout the entire photo, which causes serious defect to the scanned image. It doesn't matter which level of D&S you use, the compression is always present. The compression does not exist with any other feature, it only exists with the Dust & Scratches filter. -This is an extremely horrible side effect that completely ruins the scanned image. What makes this such an important consideration is that the D&S filter is probably the most important filter for scanning old photos, slides and negatives to both prosumer and consumer alike. Without the ability to use the built in D&S filter, the scanner becomes effectively useless to all but professionals who have quality aftermarket software and are willing to put in the additional time to clean up their scans. -NOTE: It is likely that the Epson D&S filter issue is software related, and impacts all of Epson scanners which use this same software package. We hope it is resolved, but have little hope since the software has been in use for years and seen multiple updates without resolving this significant issue. Other Comments: -For professionals who won’t need to use the D&S filter, there is one area where the Epson excels, and that is dark area image quality and detail. However, this is still balanced by the fact that in general, the Epson tends to deliver less detail over all from its scans then Cannon scanners. It’s a give and take situation, there is no clear winner. You can either have good detail throughout from a Cannon, or softer Epson scans with greater black area detail. All of our tests were done at optical resolutions of 600dpi on photos and negatives. We compared hundreds of scans of the same image using a variety of scanner driver features. The Epson tends to scan a softer image that has more red bias and less yellow overall. The Cannon scanners provide full image detail (akin to looking at the image under a magnifying lens), and provide richer color. If you are scanning photos only (not negatives or slides), then amazingly, the very inexpensive ($90) newer Cannon Lide400 scanner delivers low res scans (600dpi or less) equal to or better than the Epson v850 pro. It also scans more quickly through its USB 3.0 interface. Unless you are using the v850 for its advanced features (including negative scanning), its hard to see why anybody should shell out the $1200 price tag for it. The D&S filter issue, all but makes the scanner useless for the average consumer, and for professionals, is unable to replace every other scanner on your workbench. ... show more

  • Requires user to follow ALL software and scanner instructions carefully!
Style: Pro scanner
June 14, 2022 - After at first becoming extremely frustrated with the finicky, and often non responsive scanner. I let the V850 scanner sit idly in a corner for about eight months, until I had the time and inclination to spend a lot of time learning to use it. I have built all of my desktop computers for years, and am somewhat Tech savvy. However, this scanner put me to the test. Once I decided to very carefully follow each and every instruction that comes with Epson's and a third party's software. I began to get good results, and the V850 functions properly. I think that Epson has very good scanning software that is basically very easy to use. However, since the V850 scanner is basically for professional use. The third party scanning software probably is what a professional would need, but the average user not so much. If you purchase the V850 scanner be prepared to very carefully study the instructions for both the software , and the scanner itself. I received no comments or offers of assistance from Epson when I posted my originally extremely negative review of this scanner on Amazon. Other companies and manufacturers often reach out to Amazon customers who have purchased their products. Epson has a very spotty record when it comes to assisting customers, or addressing issues they may have with their products. I repeat, if you don't want a complicated piece of equipment that requires time to learn. Don't buy this scanner. Otherwise, I do recommend it as a very useful piece of equipment. ... show more

  • great for high quality scans of old photographs.
Style: Pro scanner
This is a great scanner. I bought it to scan a lot of old family photgraphs. It does high resolution, and both color and black and white have turned out very well. It is heavy and large, so needs a big spot on a table or desk. I think it's overkill if you're just looking to scan documents. The lid is heavy and and I've not left it open on its own - I have cats who are extremely helpful and don't want to risk it being slammed down. There is no autofeed, so it's slow, but the quality is outstanding. The dust removal works well. It also scans negatives and slides, but I've not gotten to trying that yet. I do have a good amount of old 4x5 negatives to investigate and few boxes of old slides, and will update once I test those features. I have a Mac and it works perfectly with that, and it was made to work with PCs, but can't comment on that. ... show more
