Advantages: quality scanning

Disadvantages: none

Priced at just £99 for the smart looking silver version the Canon Canonscan FB630U represents the sort of value home office workers have been dreaming of. This scanner produces sharp quality scans at a reasonable speed while being compact enough to slip into a desk drawer or laptop bag when not in use. Initial set-up took less than ten minutes. The FB630 comes with a simple but effective scanning utility which, once installed, is activated by pushing the button on the front of the unit.. A photoshop aquire plug-in is also supplied. Scanning is quiet and speed is more than acceptable, given the units size and USB interface. Designers will always opt for bureau produced drum scans for print applications, and it would be foolish to believe that this scanner or any in it's class could compete at that level, but for general duties (positionals, web pictures etc) this is a fine piece of kit.
