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.

    I don’t have a specific model recommendation, but there’s a specific feature I’d look for when buying a flatbed scanner and that is the ability to scan multiple photos with a single pass.

    Provided you keep the photos apart/separated on the scanner, the software can automatically crop and save multiple images files from separate photos. It saves a ton of time.
