Baseball card scanners
Looking for a rapid type card scanner similar to the Fujitsu fi-8170 Scanner but for Apple/Mac computers. Ne1 know of any? Looking for one that will scan tobacco/modern cards.

I don't know bubkiss about a rapid scanner but the Epson V600 is the best imo.

The Fujitsu one allows you to put in a small pile of cards and it scans each one really fast depositing into the box as shown in the picture.

donmuth: Thanks.
The one I saw for sale on amazon said Windows only. Think I'm going to get one. Go to 2:58 in this video to see in action: https://www.amazon.com/live/video/03..._=dp_vse_rvc_0

So, a machine is handling condition sensitive cards? What happens when a 100-year-old card gets stuck in the machine like when a copier has a paper jam?

I recently read that the Fujitsu fi-8170 was leaving 2 imprinted lines on the cards that it was scanning. Can you imagine scanning hundreds of your favorite cards and then discovering this new imperfection?
This will soon be a popular PSA qualifier. Mickey Mantle 1952 Topps # 200 - PSA 3 SIM SIM standing for Scanner Imperfection. I think I'll continue scanning my cards the old fashioned way. |

I have a friend that bought one when he decided to get rid of his collection. He used it on cards under $100. He scanned the stuff worth more than that on his old flatbed scanner. He had several thousand cards and he never had any problems.

Or a debris gets stuck on a roller and puts an impression on the entire stack.

Use penny sleeves and you shouldn't have any problems.

Thanks for all the help. From what I've read here, I have chosen not to buy.

I have a mac and use Epson 400 ii for items like postcards, photos and cards. It scans both sides and can do about 50 items a minute.
Sometimes it does not handle some dark items very well so you have to use a flatbed for those. I have an Epson v700 for that which is the best scanner for slides and negatives as well. With the epson You can scan cards and have it leave a 2MM border on each. The Fujitsu is a problem with Macs, I guess there is a way to make it work, but you have to use some type of workaround which is a pain.
