Scanner

[the 'stache]

My Canoscan 8400F is older than Queen Elizabeth, but it still gives me very nice scans. I'm not suggesting you get that one, because, again, it's older than the Queen of England. But Canon, with their Canoscan line, has had a really nice run of putting out scanners with remarkable quality and durability.

This was scanned over 5 years ago with the 8400F. It has the CCD element, so whatever graded card you might get, a PSA, SGC or a Beckett, it can handle it without any drop in quality because of slab depth.



I'm going to get back into collecting baseball cards again here pretty soon, and when I upgrade my scanner, it will be another Canon.

Hate to break it to you Bill, but take good care of your old one. Canon doesn't make a model with a CCD element any more.
