How much better is the Epson Perfection V850 Pro compared to the V700? And the Nikon Coolscan 5000ED with slide feeder would be a dream machine for slide bulk scanning at high quality (However now it starts to become expensive.) If you are planing to scan mainly 35mm film and wants the best quality get a film scanner like the Plustek OpticFilm 8200i Ai or in case of loads of mounted slides the Pacific Image PowerSlide 5000 or better still a 2nd hand Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400 all in about the same or less price level as the V800/V850. not really unless you are ready to pay a premium for a minor improvement.
If you already own a scanner in the caliber of Epson V700/V750, Canon 9959F or even Epson 4990 then the answer is more like well. If you shoot medium and or large format film and not already own a top quality scanner then YES this is a great scanner for all larger film formats and allow you to make fairly large high quality prints. Should I buy this scanner? The answer is not that easy and can be many. However if you already own a V700 or V750 it will not change your life in any revolutionary fashion, in this case I suggest you buy yourself some better film holders and maybe a 2nd set to get better productivity. It will also be more then sufficient for scanning 35mm film for moderate size prints and web use but for serious 35mm scanning, get a film scanner!
Yes the V850 is a competent scanner that will suit many users needs in particular when it comes to medium and large format film scanning. This review might not live up to all readers expectation in regard of professionalism but I hope it will help as many potential buyers as possible to decide if the should buy the Epson V850 Pro. and even thought I do have some extra material that i will post later (as a silent update). A review that I feel have been an detailed examination of the Epson V850 Pro capability. Epson Perfection V850 Pro final verdict and a summary of the review!
