I bought the cannon 700F to up grade, also to use when I travel. At just over 4 Lb it's no problem for carry on with my laptop.

It's seams fast, in about 6 hours with breaks I was able to scan 221 photos of various sizes.

The hole family has used daily for 4 months and several trips so far it it's been great! we scan every thing from high resolution photos to text books.

I would buy it again and recommend it to any one.

Dont buy this product

Scanning documents is fast and pretty accurate, but when scanning film it places several bars on your scan which prevents an efective reproduction of your media.

              I purchased this scanner for use in the classroom from funds generated by our generous PTSA (Parent, Teacher, Student Association). Thus far, we've used it to scan storyboards for student video projects and it really picks up the details. Initially, I had my students sketch their storyboards in pencil but noticed the scans came out out more boldly when they traced them in black ink.
              Students have commented how streamlined it looks and I've noticed how quietly it scans.
              I've experimented with scanning color images and noticed the detail and accuracy. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase.

              Comments about Canon LiDE 700F Canoscan Flatbed Scanner:

              The maximum scan resolution in standard mode is only 600dpi and 1200dpi in the advanced mode. For negatives the maximum resolution is 9600dpi and the scan came out great but it took seven minutes for one negative. The automatic multi-crop function sometimes blurred scans but the manual multi-crop worked well. I have a canon scanner similar to this one I bought ten years ago. This new scanner is only slightly better for photos but it's much for negatives.

                    I had to replace my HP Scanjet 3300C because no one wanted to make a driver for it for Vista of Mac.

                    I like my LiDE 700F!! My purchase was for my online college studies. I scanned 32 pages of Calculus homework (in no time at all) into one continuous PDF file. The settings screen was easy to use (math homework need not be in color at the highest resolution).

                    I also wanted a scanner that works with my Windows laptop and Apple MacMini. This scanner has me covered.

                    Looking forward to the options of scanning photos and artwork.

                            It would be nice if the E mail button would offer the choice to use Thunderbird instead of just Outlook Express.

                                Easy to set up and get on to what you bought it for. Scans look great and works well. I have not used the 35mm accessory - I have only used it to scan documents, which is why I bought it.

                                A good choice and excellent value for all-around scanning. A little bit slow on full color, but very accurate. BW scans are fast. The one-step buttons on the scanner are handy, especially for making copies and multiple-page pdf's. The setup was quick and easy, as was installing the software on my Mac.

                                  I have been using Canon Cameras, video cameras, scanners, printers for years. They are hard to top in my book. This scanner does the job that other scanners costing hundreds of dollars more do. The only reason I upgraded is because my previous Canon scanner, which lasted for years, is not compatible with Windows 7. Last but not least, once again, B&H had the lowest price. I am very happy with their service, [...] and low prices.

                                        I bought the LiDE 700F to digitize photo albums. The scanner preforms marvelously, cropping multiple photos and very fast. Saved me hours of edits, it literally took longer to get photos out of the albums than to scan them. Install was very painless, software took a bit to adjust to. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the purchase and will be doing business with B&H in the future.

                                        Comments about Canon LiDE 700F Canoscan Flatbed Scanner:

                                        I've used this product primarily for scanning book chapters and photographs, with great results for each. Set up and installation of software was easy, and creating both .jpg and multi-page .pdf files was intuitive and relatively effortless.
