Im looking at getting a decent scanner, upgrading my current one, but i dont know whats good anymore, so im asking around to see what ppl have/use and like.
I currently have a canon N670U, it doesnt bring colors across very well. Also i find the platten a bit small.

Any help appreciated :)

:\ my friends an i just bought a 240 dollar scanner.. i heard the hp scanner/ inkjet combo is quite good

Love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image... otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. ~ Unknown

i'm using a fb330p and it's a flat-bed scanner. it does it's job pretty well, but most scanners that are flat basically suck in quality

I have a Canon LiDe20 scanner, which is quite inexpensive (I bought it for $40 on sale; the next model up (30) generally runs about $50-$70, and I believe it's already up to model 80 or probably higher by now) and does all that I need with no more fluff. It's slow, but for magazines I generally scan at 300dpi, which serves its purpose for making wallpapers. If you want to use your scanner for photos and photo manips, you'll probably want a higher model since you'll need to scan at 600dpi and possibly 48bits of color (the 20 has a max of 32bits of color). The platen is a typical 9x12 and has an expandable "z-lid" if you're scanning thick books and is USB powered. If you look at the scans in my gallery, most of them (anything resembling recent) labeled 'personal scan' were done on this scanner, scanned at 300dpi and sized down to a more reasonable size (ie 3000pixels max width/height).

Thanks Tama-Neko for the information, i think maybe i should do a bit of reading and research into scanning techniques, your scanner is the next generation after mine i think, so there might be hope still.
Im only planning on scanning images for walling and posting here, nothing to hi tech.

All information is helping alot thanks guys.

HP Scanjet 3570c. No scanner can match it. Perfect resolution, color sensitiveness is top notch, scan light is perfectly white, drivers and bundled soft are very easy to use and configure.
