And each varies in how they digitize images and the types of documents supported. As such, they’re also indispensable for those wanting to preserve time and save family heirlooms.īut, when it comes to photo scanners, the list is vast. And they’re a surefire way to keep your treasured memories immortal and safe from degrading with age. As such, traditional photo scanners are now well suited for most applications, even office spaces focused primarily on converting documents.Įven so, they remain the ideal means to digitize precious memories from the past. Some even create editable PDFs and are perfectly apt to tackle 100 back-to-back scans in succession. And they do so with ever higher resolutions, better retouching features, and superior versatility. And not only can they digitize photos of precious memories, many now offer broad functionality to complement. I really know very little about this stuff, but I thought I'd share what I do know.Today’s photo scanners are vastly improved.

PHOTO BATCH SCANNER SOFTWARE
I haven't tried this myself, but I've seen it done in the lab for user simulations repeated over the weekend.Īlso we were not a very sophisticated outfit, perhaps there is third party software that could make better use of the scanning hardware than the included, free Epson software. You could probably get around this with one of those software packages that records mouse movement and then repeats it without human presence needed. Add to that how slow a hi-DPI scan was, and you realize that the ADF only shaved off a small percentage of the overall scanning time. Every single photo was a laborious, multi-step, slow process due to the software. The second is that even though there was an ADF and therefore you didn't have to physically cycle the photos, you could not do a batch scan of a whole stack of photos. I don't remember if it was compatible with OS X at all-we only had one Mac at the time and it wasn't connected to the scanner. The first is that the Epson software for Windows was pretty crappy, almost never updated, and I wouldn't be certain that it would run on a current versions of Windows. I used one of those many years ago, possibly a different model though, and there were two problems that come to mind. For those that may be curious, apparently we have a digital photography sub group.

Couldn't figure out how to delete this thread. Let me know if there is a better group, and I'll move the thread there.

Looked and wasn't sure what would be the right group, and figured the Mac Pro group would be most likely to have come up on a solution to this. *Sorry if this is not the right sub group. Has anyone found any modern solution that can do 1200dpi, or is the now ancient Epson 3590 the best I can hope for? The only other thing I've found was an ancient discontinued Epson Perfection 3590 Photo scanner and it does over 1200dpi (3200dpi): They are deteriorating just sitting in books/boxes, and I want to get them in the best quality possible, so that if the originals get destroyed, I won't care. I need this high quality because I have a lot of physical photos I want to scan. I've done tests on flatbed scanners and determined that you can detect (albeit subtle) differences in quality up to 1200dpi (particularly with good black and white photos), and above that, there seems to be no describable difference (to me).

I know most of the 'experts' have said that 300dpi color is enough to capture full quality photos, but I have proven, to myself, that is false. The problem with those scanners is they can only do 1200dpi interpolated but not optically. And the batch feeder in the PS80 can hold 50 (instead of 25) photos in its feeder.

So far, the closest thing I found is the Kodak PS50 and PS80 (I cannot tell the difference between them except that the PS80 seems to scan faster at 300dpi, but the same speed at 600dpi). What is the best batch photo scanner that has a Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) and that can do 1200dpi optical resolution?*
