Im going down the rabbithole of wanting to digitize all my old family photos (primarily to use on immich). Theres thousands of them so for sanity sake i was looking at the FastFoto-680W. (no negatives, just prints that I have copies of).

I went down the review wormhole a little and found a lot of complaints about "scratches" and "depth not good" from it. So then an alternative of the V600 came up.

For someone who wants to digitize the photos for family/friends viewing via immich, whats the general suggestion? I want to make sure the qualitys good, it doesnt need to be immaculate for posters and stuff, but im also weighing out the time consideration.

Hesitant about sending the photos away, im looking at local places to digitize, but I like the idea of owning the equipment so I can then do more in the future if needed (more family give pics etc).

So whats the 2025 suggestion for how to digitize photos?
