High speed operation - with USB 2.0 High speed interface and on-board high-speed ASIC processor.

Great but slow except in the flatbed mode. A final note, if you scan with the glossy side of the negative down, the right way, you can sometimes get 'rings' on the image, most evident in the sky. I also came to the conclusion the USB2 feature is hype, the scanner is not fast enough for either USB2 or 1.

I also found that various photo programs, such as Photoshop sometimes end up with black screens whereas Paint Shop Pro 7 doesn't. The notch at the top of the carrier is only a distance guide, if you put your negative at the top of the scanner table, you will get a lot of streaking.

One test said if the negative was flat on the glass, it is sharper, another person ran a series of critical tests and found that about 1/16th of an inch from the glass is the sharpest, which is what the carrier is however, since all negatives are going to sag at the center, I don't know how you maintain flatness unless you use thin glass under it. The distance from the glass seems to have several opinions as to sharpness. I found that you don't need the carrier or mask when you scan, the carrier only holds the negative sort of flat, so it can't curl.

Thang Hoang (Hackettstown, NJ), Octo12:04 P.M. Look at the size of the 2400's transparency illuminator it's much narrower and smaller than on the 2450

Go look at the 2 side by side and you'll see what I mean.Īlso, I'm quite sure (I'll have to look on mine to make sure) that the 2450 does support USB 2.0 just like the 2400.Įpson 2450 specs:note the mention of USB 2.0 It's transparency illuminator in the lid is significantly smaller than the one on the 2450. It doesn't matter if you get the masks for medium format or not for the 2400. The 2450 is listed as coming with SilverFast scan software.not Viewscan as I had mentioned. The epson 2450 can scan up to a 4 inch by 9 inch negative Main difference is interfaces - the 2450 has Firewire the 2400 uses the newer (and faster) USB2 interface. The 2450 comes with masks for MF and 4x5, whereas you have to pay extra to get them for the 2400. Thang Hoang (Hackettstown, NJ), Octo05:20 P.M. "USB 2.0 is supposedly faster than Firewire."Ī Cnet reviewer says that although stated speed for USB 2.0 is 480 Mb/sec, versus stated speed of 400 Mb/sec for Firewire, he gets faster speeds thru Firewire. Thang Hoang (Hackettstown, NJ), Octo02:42 P.M. It'll be a little more than buying the 2450 but will deliver more versatility and much better results. I'm considering taking the money and getting a Minolta Scan Duel 2 and buying just a cheap sub $100 flatbed scanner. I bought the 2450 but haven't tried/opened it out yet. There are no mentions of Scanview for the 2400.

I'm not sure why since the flatbed scan area is the same on both units.Ĥ) The 2450 is listed on websites as having Scanview(?) included but there is no mention of a particular scanning software on the box. The 2400 looks like it's only large enough to illuminate a 35mm strip.ģ) The 2450 is slightly larger in overall size. Not a big deal since USB 2.0 is supposedly faster than Firewire.Ģ) The 2450 transparency illuminator on the underside of the lid is larger. The only difference that I can see in the two (based on printed specs and examining the two physically) is:ġ) The 2450 has Firewire support. I recently compared the 2 models at my local Sam's club. The 2400 is only big enough to scan 35mm film strips. I think the main differences in the 2 models is that the 2450 has a Firewire/ IEEE 1394 connection, as well as USB, and has a larger transparency unit that is large enough to scan MF and LF. It's specs say that it has the same optical resolution as the 2450. Since the 2400 is so new, I am not familiar with its scan quality. Here is the contents of a previous thread that asked the same question.ĭoes anyone know if there is a difference in scan quality between Epson 2400 and Epson 2450, or are they essentially the same? Im sure Im missing something and was hoping that someone could lift Why this would be based on the comparison I have made. Want to step up to the Perfection 2450 Photo. I dont understand (stated ∺lthough most users will find the PerfectionĢ400 Photo more than adequate, those with a real photographic eye may Unfortunately, I cant find any reviews on the 2400 to On the 2450 I cant seem to find any other differences between the SilverFast, and a 7 msec/line 256 gray level scanning speed increase Besides the addition of Firewire, LaserSoft The issue Im having is trying to decide between the 2400Īnd the 2450.
