It is geared to the production demands of professionals who require fast throughput, powerful color correction and image management with PC or Macintosh systems. Using their world-leading technologies and expertise in business machines Canon has produced a scanner that combines refined optics and a new film advance mechanism to ensure 4000 x 4000 dpi resolution for superior film reproduction.

Including both SCSI-2 and USB interfaces, 14-bit A/D conversion, and autofocus, this scanner offers an excellent mix of professional functions. Canon's FARE technology automatically detects and corrects flaws on the film, while the automatic film type detection easily distinguishes between slides, 35mm, and APS.

 Rating:  - discontinued slide holderI love this scanner, but I am very disappointed with Canon right now. I called them to purchase additional slide and film holders, and I was told that the slide holders are no longer available. I have been searching for weeks trying to find a slide holder. I bought this scanner to specifically scan my slides. If anyone knows where I can purchase slider holders for the CanoScan FS4000US please let me know. I really like this scanner, but I am very disappointed right now. Rating:  - Very SatisfiedI've been using the FS4000 since January. I previously had a 2400dpi Minolta DImage II(I believe!) that kept on freezing up and was exceptionally slow. I can't comment in absolute terms about the speed of the FS4000 but it is certainly way faster than the old Minolta. My deduction of one star (more properly about 1/2 a star)is due to the fact the scanner still seems like it could be a lot faster - perception only, maybe, but still.... I have been scanning slides at the highest resolution ... Read More Rating: - Good But Not GreatThis is a very good scanner. The FARE system has worked well for me and that is the reason I bought it. I have the HP PhotoSmart S20 as well. While the scanners are roughly in the same price range, each has its strengths and weaknesses. The FS4000US is SLOWER and the images have more grain than the S20, but the images appear sharper, with better color depth. As to speed, I don't have to spend hours removing dust and scratches manually. And a neat s/w package called "NeatImages" workes wonders with ... Read More Rating: - A Great Scanner, But... You Get What You Pay ForGiven the price, this is a great film scanner. But, it's not perfect. First, it produces wonderful images with color depths up to 42 bits. Its scratch-removal system (FARE) works well (within limitations), and it seems reasonably quick (though I have nothing with which to compare it). Since it supports both SCSI-2 and USB, its versatility is hard to find - even in more expensive models. Setup was a snap. I just plugged it into my (Windows ME) USB port, added the software and voila! There ... Read More |
