Pros: Great resolution. Easy for this first-timer to set up and use. Price was right.
Cons: Automatic mode failed to detect some tiny details in slides. Required use of Manual Scan.
The Bottom Line: Buy but beware that Manual Mode may be necessary for finest resolution for SLIDES.

Pros: Powerful, allows scanning of negatives and slides. Came with Photoshop Elements program. Bulk scanning.
Cons: More power than average user needs. For home use, Epson's 2400 is sufficient.
The Bottom Line: The 3170 is a great scanner for the money. Comes with excellent Photoshop Elements software. But for everyday home use, Epson's 2400 is more than sufficient.

Cons: Lack of info from Epson about the problems when running OS X.
The Bottom Line: I would recommend the Epson Perfection 3170 Photo to anyone serious about quality scanning. Even those running OS X.
