Title: Canon, thanks for ruining Christmas
Product review: Setup was a breeze, the scanner looks nice, and the software is OK. There's just one problem, the scanned pictures look like crapola. At first I tried scanning a magazine cover at 300 dpi and the resulting image looked nothing like what I was scanning, it was all blotchy and the text looked like garbage. Then I switched to 1200 dpi and a regular old photograph. The colors were OK but the outlines of the people looked all jagged like bad Atari graphics from the 80's. Oh and you have to wait like 3 minutes for the 1200 dpi image. I bought another brand of scanner for about 80 bucks five years ago and it beats the daylights out of this thing. Needless to say, I'm going to return this hunk of junk.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
