Received the 9950F for Christmas. Setup took a little while as with all USB connections somer ports eem to work better than others. Now it is working flawlessly. I have scanned more than 100 color negatives and slides and the results have been outstanding. The software handles dust and scratches well and color rendition is super. One observation -- I turned off unsharp mask in the scanning software and use Photoshop.
When you compare the price of this unit to what you would pay for a dedicated film scanner with this resolution and software, the Canon is a no-brainer IMHO -- and I work in graphic arts every day. Yes, there are scanners out there that probably are better -- if you are willing to spend three times the money or more.
