I received my CanoScan LiDE 500F Flatbed Scanner the other day. It’s a very inexpensive color scanner that fits on my desk between my flat panel displays and the place where I keep my laptop.

I’ve opened a new CanoScan LiDE 500F photo album. This currently has a bunch of “box unpacking” photos, but I’m planning to add example scans in the near future. Check them out if you’re interested.

At well under $150 this scanner is a great deal. I can use it to scan documents that I will faxed using my eFax Plus account. I can also use it to scan 48-bit color images at 4,800 x 2,400 dots per inch.

I got the idea to buy this from Jeremy Zawodny and I agree with him that the LiDE 500F is:

  • small,
  • quiet,
  • light, and
  • pretty fast.
