I bought this scanner because Im digitizing all of our family photos.....and this thing was AMAZINGLY FAST. Love it.

I found this scanner simple to use, fast, intuitive, with high quality reproductions and ease of saving them in multiple files.

Awesome quality and speed. judt wish it gave thevoption of saving directly to my computer instead of cloud.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice scanner. Lots of options, just need to learn them.

I have been using a flat scanner to digitize all of our pictures for the last 40 years. It was taking way too long. I bought this scanner and it really has been great. It scans very fast and the pictures turn out great. It has been great and has made my job very easy

Bought it this week and have already scanned over 100 pictures. Not bad but it does come with issues. First, if there is old tape or glue on the back of a picture, it jams. The back has to be scrapped clean and pristine. Secondly, it will not scan Polaroids. Too thick. An entire generation used Polaroid cameras so there are millions of those out there, fading and rotting. I have a flatbed scanner for those but many don't have that option.

I had inherited all of the pictures my mother had taken over the years (about12,000). I would have cost an arm and leg and some other body parts to hire someone to do this. I am so happy I ofund the FastFoto FF-680W. I spent about a week scanning photos and the quality was superb. I owuld definitely recommend this product to friends, in fact I have already done it.

In the past month I have scanned over 2000 photos that were simply sitting in boxes in the basement for decades. You do need to do your homework, like looking at the pictures, making "piles" for them so you can name them, look for duplicates etc. The scanner is good but garbage in and you get garbage out. I ended up with over 30 different categories for my stuff, and I could still refine things better now. But once the pictures have been put into order and put into piles or bundles with them oriented for scanning, it went by so fast! This thing took everything I had and scanned it and mistreated or damaged nothing. It honestly took me much longer to sort them than to scan them. And the software did a great job orienting and fixing up. The post scan work was easy enough and necessary anyway. And it's been useful for scanning other things from the household.

Just bought the Epson FF-680W today. It loaded a few & displayed them. Thereafter I have gotten the message: Epson FF-680W quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple.

The scanner has been a great tool for digitizing our years of family photos stored in dusty photo albums. It’s amazing to watch it pump though a stack of photos even at high resolution. Our struggle has been finding a good cloud app with the needed folder management system to display and share them with family and friends. I think one software change would help me significantly. The software does a good job incrementally identifying each photo file name as it’s scanned. However most Cloud apps sort photos by origination date and the Epson software applies the same date and time to every photo. Unfortunately when you scan 100 photos in the order you want them displayed the Cloud software randomly displays the images. This is frustrating and forces you to spend hours manually reordering them afterward. I could use an option that allowed the software to incrementally add one minute to each photo so that they’ll remain in the sequence they’re scanned.
