Excellent slide-scan quality for a flatbed scanner. Fast scans. Color-restore feature revives old photos. Scans directly to PDF format

No ADF. Dust and scratch removal feature doesn't meet our expectations

When it comes to photos, slides, and film, the Canon CanoScan 8400F shines. The built-in transparency adapter and the film guides work with 35-mm slides, 35-mm film, and 120 format film, with astoundingly good results for a flatbed scanner. The scans...

Won't work on Mac or XP systems. Canon cutomer support confirms a harware problem. Lock switch id intermittent.....mostly locked regardless of position. Had it 24 hours before Canon agreed to send another unit. This time they say it will be tested...

Wasn't to expensive when i bought it and using other scanning software it does really good pictures, for the price i paid for it

My only problem with this scanner was that like the other reviewers said it had white spots under the glass when i recived it and they are very noticable when your scanning
