Last week I was searching for KZbin videos on digitizing photos. I’m guessing my search last week is why your video popped up in my feed today and I’m very glad it did. I recently read Swedish Death Cleaning (sounds kinda morbid but it wasn’t) and it got me thinking that one of the most daunting tasks of cleaning out my mother’s place and then my father’s place were boxes of photos. Add in the giant box of photos my in-laws had and all I can say is OMG!!! Last week I ordered an Epson flat scanner from Amazon that is due to arrive today but after watching your very thorough review, the flat scanner will be going back. I placed an order for this scanner a few minutes ago and now I’m looking forward to not only scanning all the photos but also getting them all organized and shared with family and friends. At 70 years old I’m starting to think about making it as easy as possible for my daughter to go through stuff once I pass on in maybe 20-30 yrs. 😊. My father lived to be 98 so I figure I have a good shot! 😂. Won’t just be photos I’ll be digitizing but lots of documents too. Thanks for posting this video. Looking forward to watching your videos on using Photoshop. I had the program many years ago but never really utilized it. Now that I’m retired I’m thinking it will be fun to learn how to really delve into the program. Thanks again!

But I finally realized that the task was overwhelming and too time consuming for the flatbed approach. I am so pleased that I located your tutorial. It was very informative and you provided so much great direction and examples. Thank you

I'm just starting to look at scanners vs. using a company to do it...and you've almost sold me! The fact that it will scan the BACKS of photos if something is written on them is VERY appealing to me! Now they're almost $600...but still probably cheaper than getting boxes and boxes of photos sent in. Thank you!

I have been putting it off for years, lots of family photos after my grand parents, and my family is not happy waiting for them, but it's such a mountain of work to do with a flat be scanner. So I will try to get hold of this scanner to do this. I didn't know this scanner existed until today, which is when I looked for reviews. Glad it's good enough for such a job. Thank you.

The Transport Museum has now moved down to a purpose built building on the North bank of the River Clyde.

Yep - it's a lifesaver... I have a 500W and I've put everything through it.. Photos I don't have negatives for, all kinds of documents, records, tax papers, business cards and so on. We are doing a lot of downsizing - going through years and years worth of stuff. We've found a lot of those PhotoMat envelopes. So my little 500W has been getting a workout. As an aside... ALL my negatives (and I have one of those plastic tote boxes full of them - 35mm to 4 X 5) have been scanned. I have a couple Epson flatbeds, and both are capable of scanning negs and slides. All have been scanned @ 4800 dpi - you can actually see the grain in the film! All our photos are stored on 2 external HDs and a 3rd internal drive on my main PS machine. I have to tell you.. It took several months to scan all those negatives! 😜

Thanks so much for the excellent information and very useful review. I am now searching for the best price for this FF 680 W and will start my photo digitization process soon. This was very helpful.

Hi Colin, I have a Canon MP990, it is a printer, copier, scanner (Photos, Documents, and an attachment that lets me scan slides and film strips). It also has a great quality to the scans and copies and print outs. I have had it for over a decade and still works pretty well. The software has a cleaning and deep cleaning part to it, and when scanning documents I have a choice of JPG or PDF. I do plan to install the software on my newer laptop, and then scan away. I have so many pictures, and negatives from years ago, and when I had a film DSR camera for a photography class I took quite a few years ago. Like over 5 years ago. I do like your idea of scanning documents, which I eventually plan to do. Great scanner though.

And tel them they will have to go n and later name the files etc’ if it’s as fast as they say people will easily pay 10 cents a photo as they know they will never do it and how much time they think it takes with a flat bed scanner’ wink wink they don’t know u have a good one’ Guarantee u could make Money and have a lil side hustle everyone has albums laying around they will never digitalize so they’ll pay to have it done and it’s safer than sending n the mail’ they won’t get lost etc as They are local Do that 2-3 times and you made your money back’ Worst case get it use it and take it back if it’s not good’

I needed this last year at this time. January through May I scanned over 7,000 photos, mostly very, very old ones I rescued from a flood at my mom's house. I still might look into this scanner as I have another 50 years of photos to scan. Our family loves to take photos. FYI even found some 3' X 5" black and while glass negatives dating back to the late 1930's or early 40's . How's that for a find?

That is great... I'm guessing the time frame "January through May" (5 months) means you were using a flatbed scanner? A ton of work scanning one at a time! Kudos for making all that effort. I like the idea of making notes and comments and saving for later generations. I'm looking at maybe 5,000+ photos and thinking I can't spend 5+ months doing this... is there a faster way?!? Looks like this is it! Plus I am excited this can capture the back side if there are notes or comments!

@@johnbrown4200 I love this scanner. It captures the back side with notes or whatever is on the back. I love that it even does documents. I use it all the time. One note: If the photo is thick then you have to use a flatbed scanner. Thicker photos won't scan through this scanner. Plus it's limited to certain sizes. Very large photos have to be done on scanners that can scan large photos. BUT I was able to push through so many photos in such a short time it made my life much better. I highly recommend this scanner.

I have a 500W, and use it for everything. I scan receipts, documents, magazine articles (cut out of the magazine, of course), and so on. All my prints have been scanned. I also have an Epson V-700 Photo flatbed which also has a scan mechanism built into the lid of the scanner, for scanning negatives /slides. It will scan an entire 24 exposure 35mm roll in one batch. It will scan film from 35mm up to 8 x 10. I spent a good year and a half scanning every negative and slide I'd shot since the late 60s. All at 4800 DPI - you can actually see the grain in the film! And once the photos are cleaned up and de-spotted they print beautifully. Now, I just need to go through and add keywords in LR so I can find what I'm looking for!

Good luck finding any such machine. The closest things available for prints and negs are the Epson V-800 & V-850, but they''re both flatbeds. They can do multiple slides or multiple negatives in batches, as well as prints up just over letter size, but they're not very fast for each individual slide or negative. A digital camera with a sensor at least 24 megapixels in size, a 1:1 macro lens, a film holder for each size slide/negative you have, a copy stand or tripod to hold the camera stationary and parallel to the film, an LED light panel with a CRI of 95 or higher to backlight film, a pair of LED lights to give even lighting for prints and other documents, will give you the speed you seek with better quality digital images.

Read the Amazon comments… doubtless a great way to bulk scan a lot of SNAPS! But If you have quality shots, use a flatbed (or, for really serious work, and IF you have negatives - positives for you serious Photographers - a macro lens and digital camera) This time saver produces JPEGS while - even a low end - flatbed will give you a TIFF! What’s the diff? It’s like 1080P video vs 4K ie only wanna see your pics on a smart phone? KISS! But if you wanna put treasured family keepsakes on a monitor… TIFF/4K!

Can this one scan negatives and does the quality get better if you scan it a 1200dpi then resize it by 50% later?
@arttaylor5935
@arttaylor5935 2 жыл бұрын
No, it doesn't scan negatives or slides. The 1200 spi is guessing at the missing pixels it adds, so resizing later isn't going to gain any quality. Scanning at 1200 spi will also increase the time required.

Looked it up, I would rather scan all my negatives, as you get better resolution, and this thing doesn't do negatives. So it's a deal breaker for me, because I have more negatives than photos (some are damaged, some disappeared).

Hi - good and comple review. I see it has Epsom Smart software; does it have the same features as the ES Workforce500w? My goal is photos along with receipt sorting, contracts, and mail documents. Also- can u select and scroll file folders from the device to a Cloud service or do u need the computer to operate and the computer on?

I bought the FF-680.. speed of the number of prints scanned was huge, quality of the scans not so much. Mine were over saturated and dark compared to the original picture. I adjusted all controls that I could with no success..

That is a question that I bought up near the end of the video. The answer is yet, its a crazy fast document scanner too. So, the next phase for me is to scan all my paperwork.
