Getting a terrific
scan from your
film source is
easier than ever.
Connect the scanner, load your film
The USB 1.1 interface offers Hot Plug & Play,
which means you can connect the FS2720U
when your computer's already on and start
scanning immediately. Mounted slides can be inserted
directly into the unit, and dedicated holders are provided
for 35mm filmstrips and Advanced Photo System
cartridges. When the scanner's not in use, a handy dust
cover keeps unwanted particles out.
User-friendly driver software
CanoCraft FSU supplies Windows users with an easy-to-
use interface for controlling the scanner, while Macintosh
users have the equally well-designed Plug-in Module FSU
to work with. If you're using an image-editing application
like Photoshop, you can scan directly into it with these
drivers. They also let
you easily set the size
and resolution of your
scan, and rotate the
image if you happen to
insert your film upside-
down.
