Superb Light Sensitivity
Scanning at an incredibly high 4800 dpi resolution using a new Matrix CCD (Charge Coupled Device) Micro Lens technology, the Perfection V350 Photo has superb light sensitivity without the overhead of a larger carriage. And with a dedicated on–board ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) hyper processor, the scanner delivers optimum levels of detail and gradation reproduction.
The scanner's light sensitivity is further enhanced by its 3.2 Dmax optical density; ensuring scans capture incredibly fine and subtle details in highlights and shadows.
Absolute ease–of–use
Through researching the most commonly used features of desktop scanners, and taking into account feedback from Epson scanner users from around the world, Epson scientists designed the Perfection V350 Photo to incorporate a straightforward four–button operation panel.
-
Start Button: The Start button automatically invokes the PC–based Epson Scan software, providing simple and immediate access to the Perfection V350 Photo's total set of software scanning tools.

Versatile Film Scanning
The Perfection V350 Photo delivers enormous flexibility and power when it comes to film scanning. Featuring a integrated auto film loader, the scanner supports automatic loading and scanning of 6 frames x 35mm film strip – all without even lifting its lid.
The scanner also features a fully integrated Transparency Unit (TPU) and film holder to streamline and simplify film scanning for:
-
3 frames of 35mm filmstrip
-
6 frames of 35mm filmstrip (Auto Film Loader only)
-
2 frames of 35mm positive slides (mounted)
Extendable Lid Design
The Perfection V350 Photo's innovative two–way design (portrait or landscape) gives you the ability to place the scanner anywhere on your desk yet still have full and easy access. With the lid hinge positioned across the length of the scanner, it opens just like a photocopier.
The scanner's lid also folds out full 180–degrees, which delivers the ability to scan portions of large format documents up to virtually any size.
4800 x 9600dpi Optical Resolution
Underpinning the Perfection V350 Photo's high level of performance is its 4800dpi Matrix CCD (Charge Coupled Device) and Micro Lens technology combination. Adding even greater scanning resolution power is the scanner's ability to move the optical carriage at 9600dpi with Micro Step Drive — a feature that has consistently provided Epson Perfection scanner users with brilliantly clear images exhibiting high colour consistency.
High–Speed Scanning
With numerous technologies that enhance the speed of data processing and transmission, the Perfection V350 Photo has been designed to provide outstanding quality scanning without compromising on speed. The first of these technologies is a high–speed PC–centric ASIC (Application–Specific Integrated Circuit) that processes image data at incredibly high speeds.
With an advanced moving carriage type TPU, the Perfection V350 Photo achieves brighter and more evenly dispersed luminance, which are essential requirements in improving scan uniformity and film/negative scanning speed.
Adding even further to the high speed capabilities of the Perfection V350 Photo is its standard USB 2.0 port. Aside from providing broad connectivity support, the USB 2.0 port ensures a high speed transmission rate of the massive amounts of scanned image data captured and processed by the scanner.
