My trusty Epson Perfection has finally gone to the big electronic scrapheap in the sky. I can't complain, I've had it for more than 20 years and it's done me some sterling service. I really need a replacement sooner rather than later as stuff that is waiting to be scanned is getting a bit backed up.
Basically, I am looking for more of the same, namely something with an A4 scan bed and with a lightbox for scanning slides and negatives. The latter is desirable rather than essential, as most of what I scan is documents, photographic prints and other paper-based ephemera. I can always buy a small stand-alone film scanner if need be, as a basic one isn't that expensive.
I'm not above buying used / reconditioned. Guess budget is somewhere in the region of £150 - £200.
Or if someone on here has one in good nick that they want taking off their hands, then that's an avenue I'd also be happy to explore.
