Epson 1250-photo

Written: Dec 21 '01

Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0
Ease of Use:  
Pros: very good image quality, fair price

Cons: Slow to start, awful color correction, awful twain software

The Bottom Line: Would recommend the 1250 photo, the slide adaptor produces far better results than the Agfa E50 /E52.

gdesign's Full Review: Epson Perfection 1250U Photo Flatbed Scanner
Excellent scanner image quality

Both Auto color and ICM render images dark and spotty
recommend not using twain color correction.

Fantastic on B/W photo's and text documents.

Has problems with dark images /photos tend to get spotty and
when lightened in graphics software become full of squares
and color flaring.

Will accept 16 bits/pixel or 48 bit color if software such as Artscan Pro is utilized.. from a 30mb image to a 80 mb image. Nice transitions.

Does not handle well Matte (non-glossy) photo's with the UV
protective coating . Unable to compensate for refractive coating.

Handles Glossy photo's well.

We give it a 4 out of 5
