Photos, Slides, and Negatives

Our Epson V600 Flatbed Scanners are capable of scanning photos, slides, and negatives. The scan bed can accommodate photos or documents up to 8 ¾” x 12” or 12.2" x 17.2" (depending on the scanner). 

If you’re scanning a large number of photos, try the Epson FastFoto; it can quickly scan up to 36 photos at a time. Note: It can only accommodate photos, Polaroids, panoramas and postcards up to 8” x 10.”

Note: You may also want to check out our Bookeye 5 V2 Overhead Book Scanner or the Epson Expression 13000XL Archival Scanner for scanning documents, books, and other oversized materials. For more information, check out our Books and Documents page.
