canon pixma ip6700d has anyone bought this? and is it worth the money to buy it?

I bought one yesterday. Will post a review in a few days once I have tried everything out. So far, works fine out the box printing from a camera memory card. If price is everything to you, get an iP6600D at the closeout price.

I didn't think the iP6600D had reviews that were as good as the iP5200, the text speed, cost and quality being somewhat down. Will be anxious to see the results of your study.

I finally posted my review. I did see the reviews for the iP5200. The most important factor to me between these two concerned the inks - the iP5200 with two blacks, cyan, magenta, and yellow compared to the iP6700 with black, cyan, magenta, light cyan, light magenta, and yellow). That gives me the impression that the iP5200 is intended for general home network printing and the iP6700 is more geared towards workstation-serious photo printing. The only way to tell for sure, though, is to test these two printers side by side.

You got it, the Canon printer with the Photo Magenta and Cyan smoke the other Canon, Epson, and HP photo printers when it comes to color photo's. My son and I took an SD memory card into a Comp USA several years ago to check out a printer for him, and the Canon's with the photo colors put all other printers to shame when doing color photos.

I can answer only for the Canon IP67000 which uses Canon "8" cartridges. Good luck.

Also I bought the camera used. I have probably shot 20,000 pics with it because it is not my primary camera. No idea how many shots taken before or what maintenance may have been performed. It was previously used by a news outlet though. But I had the shutter replaced on my primary camera (also a 1D Mark IIN that I bought new in 2006) and it has worked perfectly since then.

So glad I found this post as I'm in the same boat and just printed out the specs on both cameras. I'm curious as to which camera you ended up getting and how you like it? My original intent was to upgrade from my Canon Powershot due to a long lag time in between being able to shoot the next picture now that my kids are in sports, but I would still like clear nice pictures. What did you get and how do you like it?

unfortunately NO, but this model is Canon PIXMA iP7250 Inkjet Colour Printer, check it out, for inks try INKredible or CISS system

I am not real happy with the Kodak. Their older models are better. Thinking of returning and getting the FugiFilm s5200 Better report with PC World. check out the canon ratings on this website. www.pcworld.com

Thanks for the input and advice. I'm new to high-end(expensive) digital camera market. I realized after I posted this question that the camera is sold out or otherwise unavailable now and it could take a month or two to get one even if I ordered today. I'll definitely look into buying one in the next few months.

Answer here...Yes. But its a soft copy and not a printed one. IF I were you, I would look at buying a different camera. I am not happy with the focussing/ indoor pics etc.

The photo quality seems real good to my eye, particularly for the price. I think it is worth it for you to try them out once. If it works for you it will save you a ton over time. If you don't like the quality you can still use them for everyday printing at a lot less.

My 610 works and produces above the norm consistently, had it since 2007 and I've had HP's, Epson's , etc and what really makes the 610 shine is to scan, save to desktop, and attach to an email, documents, photos, text and flawlessy. In fact I got Canons website for upgrades for software etc. and thought why??????????????. If it ain't broke........................Good all around every day machine but a photo above 8x10 should be handled by a Canon, I believe 9000 pro or an Epson 3880 for superior print quality!

Yes, it's a great camera but don't overpay (no more than $400). You could also look into the canon rebels.

With my ip4200, which has the same cartridges, I found it was more economical to purchase a new printer at $65 than buy the 5 Canon replacement cartridges (lowest price about $75 delivered). The 4200 is no longer available so I will wait for the price of the ip4300 to dip below $75 and do the same thing. You pay the same for the ink and get a new printer for free.

I am also wondering whether this is an option, if anyone has any information. I do not want to shell out an additional $120 for a, based on the reviews from CNET and PCMAG, slower, equivalent quality, bulkier model in the mp 810. After a week of searching, I finally just emailed Canon to find out whether they can tell me and pointed out that Epson used to offer this option. *EDIT* From Canon reply: "Thank you for your inquiry regarding an film adapter for the PIXMA MP600. Unfortunately, Canon does not manufacture a film adapter for the PIXMA MP600. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. " Guess it's time to decide whether a separate one is cheaper than spending on the 810.

I have the Xsi and I love it. Think about whether or not it's worth $250 extra just to have video and 3 more megapixels. The Xsi has 12.1 megapixels, but that's still enough to make a good poster sized print. I think those are the two biggest differences in the two cameras, so just decide whether or not those extras are worth the extra cash. Good luck! :)

I am not sure what the problem is, but I can tell you that I had two of these printers and they gave me a lot of trouble before completely breaking....both in less than 6 months. I would just save yourself the trouble and buy a canon pixma. The printer is cheap and works amazing....not to mention that it prints on both sides of the paper on its own which saves me during school. I will never buy a Kodak again. If you are stuck with this printer double check on your end and make sure it is the printer defect. Try a print preview before printing to see if it shows the whole article. If this does not help try reinstalling the Kodak software.

Ricky, My belief is that if you are the primary (first) purchaser then yes, Canon will honor the warranty. However many of the units offered have been purchased and after using Canon's $200 rebate relisted for sale. It appears that dealers are selling the printer without the rebate (which typically means the UPC bar code has been removed from the carton). This is how I purchased my Pixma (i.e. "2nd hand") cheap (~$200) and I've had no trouble with it. I feel its worth the risk. If you're deeply concerned about the warranty you should call the seller first. Alternatively you could purchase an extended warranty through Amazon.

Here is a link to a review of all 3. I guess you have already purchased a unit by now but this may be helpful to others: http://www.photo-i.co.uk/Reviews/printers/Pigs/page_1.html
