How long it takes (mm:ss) for full resolution scan - with 2x multi-exposure and iSRD (dust removal) on. Thanks!

It all up to your computer. A fast computer wold take about 2 minutes. Per Plustek. Good Question. Anthony J Argy Sr Full Color Copier Inc.

The NR processing time is equal to the exposure time. If you made a 30 seconds exposition, the camera are going to take another 30 seconds with the high ISO noise reduction.

There have been discussions ad nauseam about the true nature of the pixel count. Sorry, I don't even want to set started, there has been so much vitriol on the web about the subject. The raw of a DP3 is about 50MB. SPP, the conversion/editing program provided by Sigma is very, very slow.

you would be better off using a regular photo scanner. the epson takes 20 min to do a photo scan. it is great for negs. and slides.

it depends on the resolution you want to scan - if you chose 1 before the best, it would scan about 4 photos per minute. they don't have to be the same size; the tray only takes about 10 photos / pages at a time though - otherwise the fujitsu S1500 may be a better choice (double the price...)

Can anyone give an emphasized answer? I am looking at buying another camera as well and my wife and I were both wondering this. Based on Diana's answer, it seems that when it switches from one camera to the other using the scan feature (8 seconds or 8 minutes?), the audio switches. Can anyone confirm this?

The actual scanning takes about 2 seconds. Where the time is involved is in the loading and unloading of the frame that holds the negatives. Figure about 1-2 minutes per frame loading and unloading. It's still worth the doing in order to save those old pictures.

At an estimated 200 dpi and up (it doesn't actually let you know how high it goes, another limitation as far as I'm concerned), it actually scans at a moderate rate, not too fast and not too slow. Trouble is, I've relied on it for for crisp scans at 200 dpi and up, and it just doesn't do it very well. It wouldn't bother me if the sources were not the greatest resolution to start with, but they are, and the scanner just doesn't do them justice even at the highest resolution.

It depends on the resolution of the scan. At highest resolution, full color 600dpi, it can take about 30 seconds, but full color at 300 dpi takes 10 seconds, and much less if you go to black and white text, and around 200 dpi, which is plenty high enough for a page of text, in which case less than 5 seconds. The nice feature about this scanner is that if you place a bunch of pictures on the scanner glass, and leave separation between them, it will recognize they are individual pictures and then trim and present you separate scanned images, as if you had scanned the pictures separately. But it's a bit tricky to be sure they are not close together, because if placed edge to edge, it appears to the scanner they are all part of one big picture.

The scan settings range from 200 to 1200 DPI in color of B&W; scan mode. I normally use between 200 and 400 DPI and find the quality to be OK. 1200 DPI would be under 0.001" resolution.

Nice info G. Williams. Wonder if this is available here in the UK though? (Boots perhaps, anyone know?) BTW after re-reeading my comment above I forgot to say... Using the Fujitsu S1500/S1550M users can also use the included "Carrier Sheet" (a clear plastic folder thingy) to put photo's into to protect them whilst going through the scanner. You get one Carrier Sheet included with the machine and can buy packs of 5 (c.$25 per 5-pack, at last check) as well, if you need more of them for heavy jobs.

I have a unit but I have never yet used it do to a bust schedule. I assume it would scan in less than 30 seconds . . . . as most scans that size are about the same.

Hi Phoebe - I don't know that actual scan speed but I can tell you that we use the scanner in a semi industrial setting where we will rapidly scan over 100 items per minute without a miss as long as the items and the scanner are properly oriented to each other - We are VERY pleased with this scanner - we purchased 10 with no failures reported in over a year's use and continuous use. -R.

up to 2 hours... Lorex/FLIR is coming with a new solution soon, this camera will be much more suitable for action

I never timed it but maybe 5-10 seconds to scan an 8.5 x 11 document; if you go too fast it will indicate an error

JonW - To be honest, I never ended up making the purchase due to the fact that my wife gave birth to our first children, twins...and my "spare" time has all but vanished, at least for the last year. I will always have the need though so I appreciate F. Rush's insights, they are helpful as I do intend to purchase a scanner in the future. I have had my eyes on the 9000f since its release and if I were making this purchase right now that is likely the direction I would go. I wish you luck in deciding and please keep me updated with your choice and feedback.

I never timed anything I scanned. Nothing, documents or photos took more than 20 sec. Hope that helps.
