Summary: The Canon Pixma MP260 is our favourite multifunction inkjet printer of 2008/09. It's 'multifunction' because it includes a scanner, and the whole thing--printer, scanner and copier--costs the same as the LiDE 700F. For basic scanning for use at home,...

Conclusion: It's small, can even be used standing up and it can scan your negatives, not just your photos. There's a lot going for the LiDE 700F, even if it the colour problems we found mean that a little retouching will need to be done before you commit to paper.

Pro : Bright, lively scans at low resolution ; Negative scnning ; Doesn't take up much room ; Shortcut keys ; Can be used vertically as well as horizontally

Cons : Scans quite slowly at higher resolutions ; Problems with yellow, red, grey and black

Summary: Unfortunately, as a film scanner, the 700F is ... well ... wimpy—so much so that it's easy to argue that Canon should have left the feature out. The good news is that the limitations for film scanning don't take anything away from the scanner's...

Conclusion: The Canon CanoScan LiDE 700F handles photographic prints and, to a lesser extent, documents reasonably well, but its film scan capability is best ignored.

Pro : Reasonably capable for photographic prints. Backlight correction and color restore features in driver

Cons : Film scan doesn't work for slides. Scans only one frame of film at a time. Film scanning is extremely cumbersome
