Power scanning begins here.
The CanoScan LiDE 500F Color Image Scanner combines sleek styling with
heavyweight performance. One convenient cable provides both power and a USB
connection, reducing the number of wires around your desk. A USB Hi-Speed
interface* enables incredibly fast image transfers to your computer, along
with the fastest possible scanning speeds. Previews of your scans are ready
in seconds. For added convenience, four easy buttons - Copy, Scan, PDF, and
E-Mail - automate the scanning process, so your projects can get done more
quickly. Just position your original, select the use for the image, and in
seconds it's ready to go.
You're going to love the results. The LiDE 500F scanner delivers a
maximum 2400 x 4800 color dpi resolution and 48-bit color depth, for over
281 trillion possible colors. The unique Doubled-Hinge expansion top lifts
approx. 1 inch vertically and lays flat on the page to help ensure clear,
sharp scans with minimal light distortion.
Scan your old negatives.
Here's a simple solution for all those old negatives you've got sitting in
boxes: just place them in the LiDE 500F's film adapter and press the Scan
button! These valuable images can be archived on your computer, safe from
heat, humidity and dust, and then printed for family and friends. FARE (Film
Automatic Retouching and Enhancement) Level 3 is a built-in film retouching
technology that automatically removes much of the dust and scratches that
may appear on your originals. The result? The final scans of dusty and
scratched film can look as good as new.
New Industrial Design.
The Canon LiDE 500F scanner has the latest and sleekest design of the Canon
scanner lineup. Able to stand on its side while scanning, it allows the user
to save space on the already crowded desk surface.
