Digitizing a Large Amount of Photos?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday April 11, 2006 @05:45AM from the albums-per-second dept.

mcj0422 asks: "With what seems like the many increasing disasters, and also the freak accidents that can happen, there are certain non valuables that people end up losing, the main one being pictures that are printed on film. I know my mom has several thousand photos in our basement, which could be wiped out by water damage in one heavy rain season. Are there any scanners designed to take loads of pictures and turn them into digital files? Is there a service that does this, if so which ones would you recommend?"

In paper format : You can have a lot of HP scanner with feed-in paper tray (like a printer or copier) and all the software you need to do the job.
In negative format : you need a negative scanner and they come with all the software you need.
Now, I realy do not believe that this silly question that can be answer on any photo related site is on Slashdot !
Come on people, take a walk to the near bridge then jump !
