The V850 Pro is a good value all-round scanner featuring latest technology and with SilverFast scan software it meets the requirements of photographers.

Authentic colors: For calibrating your scanner, we recommend our patented and award-winning Auto IT8 Calibration using a calibration target from our own production in combination with SilverFast Ai Studio or Archive Suite.
(There are third-party targets included with the scanner, which are not suitable for the SilverFast Auto IT8 Calibration.)

Note on the Dual Lens System: For transparency mode, the Epson Perfection V850 features two different focus levels. Select scan mode “Transparency”, if you want to use a filmholder. In this case, the focus of the scanner optics is precisely adjusted to the film holder. Use scan mode “Wide Transparency” only, if you want to place transparent originals directly on the flatbed.
