With the PERFECTION 2480 PHOTO's fully integrated Transparency Unit (TPU), film and transparency scanning is surprisingly simple. Even simultaneous scanning of up to three frames of 35mm strip film or two 35mm mounted slides is so straightforward that everyone in the family can get in on the action.

Improved Restoration
The ability to "improve on the original" is now a desktop reality with the PERFECTION 2480 PHOTO scanner. This scanner uses the the widely acclaimed EPSON scanner driver technologies to optimise a scanned image's colour and definition.
