Best Scanner for Graded cards?

[John V]

Another vote for CanoScan 9000F.

me too... (9000F)



top one scanned at 300dpi. You can also scan with 800 dpi and get these results:

Thanks guys. I read the old threads and have been unable to see in the specifications whether they have CCD technology. Based on the fact that all of you recommend the Cannon... I think that I will go with that. Thanks for the help... Looks like $175 is about the right price for that one....

While researching I also found the Epson V600... which seems about the same ($170) and mentions 3D objects which sounds good for holders.

Will probably go with the Cannon though.... love those scans that you guys posted. Thanks.

I purchased a CanoScan 5600f based on a recommendation from here, and could not be more satisfied. I'm not sure how the features compare to the 9000f, but I imagine the element would be similar (the 5600f definitely has a CCD element). The 5600f is also on Amazon right now for $100.

Thanks Chuck. Done. Canon it is. Order placed. Will post my first few scans on net 54 for all to see.

Thanks again everyone.

I have an older cannon model 8800f. I tend to scan infrequently and find myself forgetting how to operate the thing. But the results could not be better.
