New Product Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
EPSON INTRODUCES GROUNDBREAKING PHOTO STUDIO FLATBED SCANNERS WITH 6400 DPI RESOLUTION, PLUS FLUID MOUNT CAPABILITIES ON THE HIGHER-END MODEL Epson Perfection V700 Photo and Epson Perfection V750-M Pro Scanners include innovative 6400 dpi optical resolution and a Dual Lens System, along with a fluid mount accessory for the Pro model LONG BEACH, Calif., Feb. 22, 2006 The Epson Perfection V700 Photo and Epson Perfection V750-M Pro scanners are making their debut as the first scanners for photo studio applications that offer capabilities typically found in high-end commercial lab scanners, at a much more affordable price. These two scanners were created with the professional and amateur photographer in mind and provide groundbreaking resolution that is achieved using a new Dual Lens System. In addition, a new fluid mount accessory (offered on the Pro model), allows photographers to perform wet scans on a flatbed scanner, which is especially valuable for enhanced scratch removal and grain reduction from black and white film. The Epson Perfection V700 Photo and Epson Perfection V750-M Pro both incorporate the Epson Dual Lens System, which is a new double lens scanning system that enables super resolution (6400 dpi) scanning of 35mm, 2 , and 4x 5 medium format film. High resolution (4800 dpi) scanning is also available for transparency and reflective scanning. Depending on the resolution selected, the lens carriage will switch and the appropriate lens will be set in place. By offering the combination of 6400 dpi on a photo studio flatbed scanner and an innovative optical system, the Epson Perfection V700 Photo and Epson Perfection V750-M Pro models are ideal for photographers, graphic designers and other professionals who rely on the images they produce to be exceptiona l, said Philip Amato, product manager, image capture products, Epson.

Epson Introduces the Perfection V700 Photo and Perfection V750-M Pro Scanners Page 2 features so that photographers have both maximum control and the ability to get the best results in- house, at a very affordable price. In addition to the fluid mount accessory, the Epson Perfection V-750M Pro also features new High Pass Optics that further optimize image quality by using anti-reflective coatings on the CCD lens and a new high reflection mirror. Another valuable time- and cost-saving feature offered with both scanners is Digital ICE Technologies, a powerful tool for automatic removal of scratches and dust from film, and many surface defects from reflective prints. Both scanner models can achieve an optical density (Dmax) of 4.0, allowing for high dynamic range imaging and the ability to capture fine shadow details. They also feature HiSpeed USB 2.0 and FireWire connectivity for fast data transmission. More about the Epson Perfection V750-M Pro The Epson Perfection V750-M Pro is the flagship scanner at the top of the Epson Perfection line with up to 6400 dpi optical resolution and its unique fluid mount accessory. For many years, wet mount film scanning has been a professionally recognized method for reducing scratches, grain and optical artifacts such as Newton Rings. Wet mount scanning is especially valuable for black and white film, since other scratch removal technologies, including Digital ICE, are not effective on monochrome film. By offering this unique accessory with the Epson Perfection V750-M Pro, customers can now achieve wet scan results with a flatbed scanner. The Epson Perfection V750-M Pro includes an advanced software bundle that includes: LaserSoft Imaging SilverFast Ai 6 (full version) Adobe Photoshop Elements ABBYY FineReader Sprint Plus OCR MonacoEZcolor EPSON Scan with Easy Photo Fix technology Epson Copy Utility The Epson Perfection 750-M Pro will be available in May and can be purchased for an estimated street price of $799 from Epson authorized dealers, mail order, distribution, and on the Epson Store Web site (www.epsonstore.com).
