The CanoScan D1230U offers true optical 1200 x 2400 dpi resolution for an exceptional price. It reads colour depth to professional standards, and the optional film adaptor unit reads sizes up to the 4 x 5 inch format used by professional photographers. Advanced controls make it suitable for graphics design and web work. Yet the innovative software controls offer simplicity for home users wanting to broaden their creative capabilities. At the scanner's heart is a specially developed, 3-line 1200 dpi CCD sensor. To use this high sensitivity sensor, Canon drew on its unique optical expertise to deliver a high performance lens, christened the Galileo lens. Compared to many comparably priced scanners, it boasts a wider aperture, and a superior five-element, aspherical design. This results in a lower f-number or, put another way, a faster, more optically accurate lens. officinado score:user average rating: N/A
