I recall seeing some discussion about this over on original DataHoarder. I’m looking to begin the process of archiving a daily large number of 8x10 prints of family photos.

Anyone have recommendations on scanners / tools to make this process go smoother?

I don’t really want to send these photos to a company, as they’re just too sentimental to risk loosing.

    This! I wanted to digitalize postcards from the end of the 1800s and everyone suggested me either perfection V600 or V850. I postponed buying one because I only had less than 50 cards back then. I will look into V39 for sure too. It looks like a perfectly valid alternative.

      FYI, the V600 is CCX (excellent quality but very expensive) while the V39 is CIS (okay quality but much cheaper).
