It’s been a while since I’ve had a good scanner. At $150 this is a great scanner. This is the HP Scanjet 1350. They did a nice job making it match the aluminum theme of the Mac pro line. It also has a built in negative scanner. I found scanning old 35 mm negatives to file to be a very, very time consuming job. I’d sooner buy a dedicated machine for the task. As far as flatbed scans go, this is an awesome scanner.
