Last year I purchased a Canon 9000F MarkII scanner at Camera Company, located on Odana Road in Madison. I've used it almost exclusively to make digital copies of family slides going back to 1953. The scanner produces clean, sharp images. Great purchase!
It is, however, a bulky unit -- not conveniently portable, which is why my eyes widened as I watched this 2013 video. (I assume the Flip Pal Plus is an updated version.)
I also have my parents' photo albums, with family portraits that date back to the late 1930s. Flip Pal will allow me to scan these photos without disassembling the albums.
Priced at $149.97.

Not only is this a scanner to quickly turn all those photo prints to digital pics, but you can also record a story with each photograph. You simply scan the photo, record your voice and save to create the StoryScans file. It comes with the Flip-Pal Toolbox 4 software for desktops and a ScanTools app for iOS devices. It's ideal for genealogy, scrapbooks of childhood memories and vacation photo journals.
