I would really love a scanner into which you could put multiple photos to scan, just as you would a feeder on a xerox machine. Somehow you would have to create a system so that the photos would not get bent, but it has to be possible.-- lsteinho, Jun 07 2002 Flatbed Scanners http://techdepot.of...iid=194?AffID=11334Dependent on the image size, you can do multiple images on most of these economy models, though none incorporates a true sheet feeder.

But if you're scanning large number of photos you should use a film scanner (or possibly a transparency scanner) rather than scanning prints; many film scanners come with feeders for rolls of 35mm or APS film.-- pottedstu, Jun 07 2002 Or you could get a digital camera, perhaps?-- yamahito, Jun 07 2002 No good if you have a backlog of old 35mm work to digitize (unless you plan to re-photograph the prints / negs / transparencies).<aside> I've recently started using a digital camera (Sony Mavica) after years of 35mm stuff. I reasoned that I wasn't using my camera to its fullest extent (because it was a drag getting films developed) or to its fullest capabilities. The loss of features (manual focus, exposure control) in the Sony is not really a problem.</aside>-- angel, Jun 07 2002 random, halfbakery
