Title: Did not measure up...
Product review: I went with this scanner because of the impressive resolution capabilities and the (alleged) XP compatability, as well as Microtek's impressive reputation in the commercial scanning world. Additionally, the price is very attractive considering the unit's features. The software gave my system problems from the get-go, causing it to crash twice. When I did get some images to scan, the results were not impressive--focus was soft, and light and color were not reproduced accurately. I returned the unit the following day, so I will admit to the possiblity that I did not give it a fair chance, but my patience was exhausted quickly. I bought a Canon D1250U2F to replace it, and the contrast was night and day--the Canon has performed extremely well with only minor complaints.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
