When I last checked, I could not find a Windows 10 scanner driver from Canon. It appears that for Windows 10 users, Canon has abandoned those that own the 8800 and earlier scanners. For anyone using a previous version of Windows, this is a pretty good scanner. I used it to scan a couple of thousand slides, a few hundred photos, a few negatives and other documents. I was happy with the results. I scanned slides at 2000 DPI and obtained adequate resolution from normal prints. Scanning at 4000 DPI was fairly slow, so that resolution was only used for photos that may be enlarged. I scanned photo prints at 600 DPI and the scanner seemed quick at this setting. On any scanner, a speck of dust appears large when scanning something like a negative at 2000 DPI. Software can automatically eliminate the specks, but be careful because some software will also reduce the resolution of the image because it removes EVERYTHING smaller than the speck size that you filter out. I found it better to clean the film really well then use photoshop to remove imperfections. I also used photoshop to remove any color shift that was a result of film aging. There were no malfunctions of the scanner over the years that I owned it, so it seems to be a reliable unit. Read full review

The scanner scans 12 35mm negitives at a time, you can set the dpi different for each one! 1200 dpi is about a min. for each pic higher dpi is about 5 min. for each pic. if you put 110 film in there and manually line it up as strait as possible you can select each pic seperatley with a select tool and fit over 20 at a time. its not a fast process but it works ok! the quality is ok seemed a little dark but I use paint shop pro program to adjust the lightness and to rotate the pic ( so its not sideways ect) also I used the mirror adjustment ( in paint shop pro) when the negitive was upside down. I am not sure about the software that come with it cuz I used my own (paint shop pro). all in all I scanned 1500 of my negitives in a month or so and am very happy with the scanner ( although I have not compared it to any other scanners) it took awhile to scan alot of them as I had alot of favorite pics that I wanted very good quality and set it at 4800 dpi and would go away for an hour or so before it scanned 10 - 12 negitives. I just wiped them off with a pec-pad cloth and seemed to have very little trouble with lint, as few of my negitives were scratched up and I needed to touch them up in paint shop pro, but it did what i needed it for and I am satisfied.Read full review
I first was introduced to this scanner at the Public Library in Sparta, Wisconsin. It scans faster than any other scanner I've ever used-on the average of 4 seconds/page for a 300 dpi 8.5x11" page! It is also the only scanner I've found where the factory software interface is completely functional with Mac OS X Sierra! It is, in my opinion, a winner on all levels!

Certainly one of the best scanners of its type that Canon have produced, with a much better depth of field than current models. Yes, it does work quite happily with Windows 10, by using a Win 7 driver and the MP Navigator EX software. The only problem is finding a working example - with none on offer in the uk I had to get one from the US, and ouch! the postage. Worth it, though.

Living in a New York City apartment limits one's options when it comes to little perks, such as home darkrooms. So, when I decided to start shooting and developing film again I knew that a scanner was the solution. I researched the options and chose the Canon SC8800F based on three basic requirements. The first was the ability to scan medium format negatives. There are many scanners that will image 35mm negatives, the choice in medium format and slides is rather narrower. The second criteria was image quality, I photograph with Canon camera's and lenses, so I trust Canon to provide me with a solid product. Finally, price, while I would love to have a high end scanner with the kind of resolution suitable for spy photographs, the thousands of dollars they cost remains prohibitive. The CS8800F meets and exceeds each of the categories. The scanner ships with the film guides to scan 35mm negatives and slides and 6x6 medium format negatives. The 8800 scans up to 4800 dpi, which produces a gargantuan resolution and stellar clarity. Finally, the price for the unit simply cannot be beat. The only minor quibble I have with the Canon is the scan speed, which is quite slow. This is simply a trade off for the price, you can buy faster scanners with better resolution but nowhere near this price. If you are simply looking for a cheap, easy scanner to digitize snapshots and copy documents, you will find cheaper models with features designed for home office use. If you are a photographer or artist looking for an affordable solution to bridge the film/digital gap, the Canon CS8800F is the answer to the question.Read full review
