Not sure where best to post this message. Looking to purchase a scanner that will scan old photographs, negatives, and slides. Black & white photos date from the late 1880s to the 1970s and colored photos date from the 1950s to current. I also have some colored Polaroid photos. Negatives are from the early 1900s to about 1980 and are in various sizes and shapes. The slides date from the 1960s to the 1990s and are black and white and colored. I realize this activity will be time consuming but I now have the time to attempt this endeavor. What is the best scanner for this activity? Will one scanner do all of the above? What photo imagery editing program (am assuming I will need something since many of the old photos are faded, blurry and /or discolored) will work best after I scan? I am very low tech so any hints, comments, assistance, guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
