diamante67 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi! One more fire related question - we were able to obtain prints of our children's pictures from relatives and we would like to create digital versions, with the goal of eventually re-printing the pictures. Would you say that a regular home scanner is sufficient for this purpose or should be looking into fancier tools? Thanks again with your help with the recovery process.

Damien Symonds Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Right. I mean, it'll do a job ... but it'll be a poor job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamante67 Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 So, maybe I need to look at some lab that specializes in this? Or invest in a better scanner? (In which case, do you have recommendations?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The Epson V line are excellent scanners. But not cheap. Unless you have a LOT of photos for scanning, the lab option might be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamante67 Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 Excellent! I will think it over. Probably just the lab... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
