Default Death by scanner. Please help

My scanner sucks. Period. I would like a fast high resolution scanner that won't break the bank. What have people had luck with? Needs to be USB. Thanks
Eric

This is the type I use - never had a problem.

I got mine at OfficeMax a few years ago for around $70

Good Luck

How long does it take to scan with that scanner. Mine takes for ever it seems. Willing to pay a bit more if it scans really fast.

In the same boat as you dude. Look at my pics all fuzzy as hell. Just one problem is re-scanning everything when I finally invest in a decent scanner ughhhhhhhhhhhh.

I have used a Canon Canoscan 5600F for a few years now and scanned over 800 cards, front and backs, into my database. It works great. You can find them on line for under $100. There are probably newer Canon scanners, but this one performs just fine for me.....

Looks like it has CCD so you should be good to go. Let's see some scans!

Charge Coupled Device, from my understanding this is the element that does the actual scanning. CCD uses a lens similar to the kind found in digital cameras and that is why they can produce the kind of high resolution scans we are looking for.
