I am rough on equipment. Any type of equipment. I've broken CD players, tape players, cameras, etc. I drop them, I bang them, and then I drop things on them. This is my weakness and I realize it. So when I get something expensive like a scanner, I try to take very good care of it.
Try as I may, I am still the guy with the rough touch and I dropped a brick on my new CanoScan. "A brick?" you say. Yes, I dropped a brick on it and dented it. I was about to curse the day I didn't buy a warranty, when lo and behold! It still worked beautifully. Good as new.
We got the scanner because my wife needed to scan in three years worth of photographs. Any other scanner we tried had too low of a resolution to get the right quality. This CanoScan can scan pictures in at an amazing 1,200 x 2,400 dpi resolution. This allows you to see the details that you never knew were there in your pictures and manipulate them. There is no adaptor required because it gets everything through a USB connection. This is truly a plug-n-play device. And lets not forget it's shiny, slick design. This is one head-turner of a machine.
It's been over a year since we purchased the CanoScan and I have yet to have any problems with it, brick dropping and all. Very fast, very durable, and very reliable: The CanoScan is a great investment in an ever-advancing electronic world.
