Hello,
I have a lot of old photos at home and I am looking for a scanner to scan photos and negative films. Not too fancy something like canon 5600f/700f. I see that HP and epson also are offering good ones. Which one do you recommend?
Thanks.

Any particular model? i see that 5600f is CCD and 700f is CIS, am a lil confused. no many reviews or comparisions either on the net.

I like the specs on the 5600f

I was thinking of the same, just waiting for some more suggestions before ordering it. 700f costs 160$ and 5600f costs 225$ where I stay.

I have finally decided on the 9000f.
