i have my brothers epson V500 scanner for probably unlimited time, so i have finally opportunity to compare quality of photo in 1999 (scan from 13x9cm photo from typical lab in those times) and today scan in 3200dpi.

1999:


2010:


(bigger size downsized to 50% from scan, 1MB jpeg).

PS: look at the levels, colors, crop, details. V500+epson scan is not good choice for scanning, lot of you knows very well, that V7x0 plus vuescan produces much more better scans. but even V500 can show HUGE difference.

btw, source is konica VX200, shooted in super-cheap compact camera from carena (plastic body, probably also plastic very smal lens)

PPS: its from our high-school graduation Smile

That really shows the big influence that the lab has on the results.

Well I'm confused with your post....the V500 scan looks superior to the 1999 scan and if you think the colours of the V500 scan are not very good, it is easy to put them back using a program like Photoshop or even Epson software.

you dont understand. colours of scan are ok, colours of 1999 print arent. and ofcourse, i can correct it from scan software directly, thats no problem.

Oh well, but you did say:- "V500+epson scan is not good choice for scanning".........but IMO using the V500 gave a better result than a 1999 print from a LAB.
