A good compromise would be the Epson Perfection V500 Photo, which offers the same resolution as the V750 for about a third of the price – it's currently £179.20 at .uk. At the cheaper end of the range, there's the Epson Perfection V330 LED Photo (4800dpi), at around £90.
At the top of the range, you could get an Epson Perfection V750 Pro flatbed, which claims 6400dpi x 9600dpi and costs about £560. If image quality is your top priority, then have a look at the Epson Perfection line of photo scanners. It will be up to you to balance the different requirements to match your needs. However, there are four main variables: image quality, portability, speed and price. Flatbed scanners with CCDs (charge-coupled devices) usually cost more and produce better results than CIS (contact image sensor) models. If you're sensitive to any slight drop in quality from using the sheet feeder then you may not be happy with the quality you'll get from most portable scanners. The HP ScanJet 7650n is a good quality scanner, which generally goes for around £800. Ideally, I would like a very portable scanner than can take excellent scans up to about 600dpi using some form of feeder, but without this impacting the quality of the scans.
I borrowed an HP ScanJet 7650n from work to do the job, but pictures scanned via the document feeder didn't look as good as ones I scanned on its flatbed. I did this by scanning all my mother's pictures and uploading them to shared albums on Facebook and Flickr, but as I was using a flatbed scanner, this took a lot of time. I have finally convinced all of my extended family to allow me to scan the family photographs they have in their possession for all of us to share.
