That's Canon's own hardware-based dust and scratch correction, which works like the ICE technology using an infrared ray in order to recognize and correct dust and scratches on the target. The CanoScan 8800F works with the FARE technology. How close the scanner actually comes to this very high rather theoretical value, will our resolution test further down show. Such high resolutions make only sense when used for scanning of film material - with non-transparent targets one will only very rarely need more than 300 dpi. The indicated maximum optical resolution of the CanoScan 8800F is according to manufacturer data 4800x9600 dpi. One places the filmholders simply on the glass plate, so that they are fixed above and down at the positioning aids. The selection of the provided film holders is thus limited to one holder for up to four framed 35 mm slides, one for two 35 mm film strips with a maximum of six pictures - as well as one holder for a medium format film of up to 22 cm length. Large format films can't be scanned at all with the 8800F. Accordingly less film material can be placed on simultaneously - and accordingly bigger is the effort when processing several films. On the contrary to the Canon CanoScan 9950F it is thus no longer possible to use the whole area for films. The surface usable for it is limited by the size of the transparency unit integrated into the cover - it's only 8.2 cm broad and runs centrically over the whole length of the scanning surface.
21x30 cm), of which however only a relatively small part in the center also can be used for the scanning of transparent targets. The Canon CanoScan 8800F offers a scanning surface in A4-size (approx. Equipment, accessories and performance data of the scanner The technical specifications given by the manufacturer approach or even exceed the specifications of real film scanners - what the scanner really does and whether one can spare oneself the purchase of an expensive film scanner by buying this one, this test report will show. Flatbed scanners are mainly made for the scanning of non-transparent targets. As for nearly all flatbed scanners it applies also to CanoScan 8800F that one cannot expect the picture results to be as good as when scanning the film material with really high-quality film scanners. On this website we're naturally mainly interested in how satisfying the Canon 8800 works when digitizing film material (slides and negatives). In July 2010 the CanoScan 8800F was replaced by its successor Canon CanoScan 9000F.
