Scanners

A scanner archives documents, photos or negatives with more care than a phone can manage. A flatbed model suits photos, books and fragile pages, while a document scanner with a feeder works through stacks of double-sided sheets. Models dedicated to film and slides form a family of their own. Text recognition software matters more than the maximum resolution advertised.

Differences between models are substantial. Read the guide
