Title: Scanjet 8300
Pros: Excellent quality even from 35mm film. Ships with SilverFast software and IT8 targets. 8300gp version includes monitor calibrator.
Cons: Rather large footprint considering the scanning area. Software dust removal is poor. 120/220 film holder only takes single frames.
Verdict: HP's scanners have historically been unimpressive for serious photographic work - but the 8300 is an improvement, making it the first Scanjet we'd recommend for a creative studio
Summary: The latest flatbed scanner from HP is available in two versions - the standard Scanjet 8300 and the 8300gp, which is supplied with a GretagMacbeth monitor calibrator.

Title: You Scan Do It!
Pros: 50-sheet, duplexing ADF and 35-mm transparency adaptor are standard. Handles OCR well. Better slide scan quality than most flatbeds.
Cons: No batch scanning. Transparency adaptor is external, rather than an integral part of the unit. Lacks feature for removing scratches or dust from image.

Title: HP Scanjet 8200 scanner
Pros: Auto sharpening, colour restoration, scratch/dust removal processing and the like
Cons: The auto crop before scan doesn't get things right and can even give a horizontal crop to a vertical image! Dust removal software works but is not capable of dealing with dirty originals and the auto scaling/resolution settings don't allow enough control
Verdict: The Scanjet 8200 is more business-scanning machine than strictly a photo scanner
Summary: - The Scanjet 8200 is more business scanning machine than strictly a photo scanner, you can even buy it with an additional automatic document feeder, by having said that it can scan A4 documents on the A4 plate, negatives (four frames on a strip) and slid
