How long does it take to scan a photo or series of photos on the flatbed?

I haven't timed it, but I suppose that after it's warmed up ( a short time) it's thirty seconds or so per photo. The bulk of the time involved in scanning a group of photos it not the time for each one to be scanned, but the time between scans. That depends on how quickly you can change the original and click on "go".

Only takes a couple moments to warm up, then set parameters of the software (resolution, size, file path, etc)...then it goes fairly quickly.

It depends on the resolution of the scan. At highest resolution, full color 600dpi, it can take about 30 seconds, but full color at 300 dpi takes 10 seconds, and much less if you go to black and white text, and around 200 dpi, which is plenty high enough for a page of text, in which case less than 5 seconds. The nice feature about this scanner is that if you place a bunch of pictures on the scanner glass, and leave separation between them, it will recognize they are individual pictures and then trim and present you separate scanned images, as if you had scanned the pictures separately. But it's a bit tricky to be sure they are not close together, because if placed edge to edge, it appears to the scanner they are all part of one big picture.

You can only scan to an SD cardIt's super easy. I did 1000 slides in 2 dayYou can edit in any photo program like Picasa

the top on is only the photo being inserted. I wouldn't buy this product again - there is no way to extract a photo if it falls off the tray which can happen if the photos aren't perfectly sized. the quality of the scans was pretty good but I was hoping for something faster than a flatbed and this definitely is not by the time you insert the photo, run it through etc.

You can put multiple photos into the scanner and then choose to scan them all as a whole or you can choose to scan each one separately. But if you do it separately you have to crop it to the photo in the scanning software. It's really easy.

I timed it with a stopwatch. Once it warmed up, it took 10 seconds to scan a grayscale document at 300dpi using the flatbed scanner (not the document feeder). I scanned it directly into Adobe Acrobat Pro X. It took 26 seconds to scan a color page at 300dpi. Every 12-15 or so scans, it stops to warm up, which only takes a few seconds.

If the paper is flat without wrinkles it will scan very fast with a steady hand. I usually scan a 8 X 11 copy in about 6 are 7 seconds.

I just scanned 28 pages in about 2 minutes (I say about because I didn't use a timer with seconds) - my settings were Black & White, 400 DPI, Searchable OCR, single sided. I regularly scan documents ranging from a couple pages to 60 - 80 pages and almost never have a skip or miss. I mostly scan directly to Adobe Acrobat X Standard rather than the Brother software but I don't think that affects the speed. I like Adobe Acrobat Standard since it is easier to work with the documents afterwards (and it does a better job of auto sensing portrait vs landscape as I often have a mix of documents).

I don't know. Haven't tried that. But I really doubt it. I have scanned almost 9000 pics so far and still scanning. Love it.

I can scan multiple photos at one time and it creates separate file for each photo - assuming it is because I leave space between each photograph on the scanning bed.

See other comments for initial answer.You can scan as many photos as you can fit on the screen at once. If there is no space between them on the vertical bias, it will do them all in one scan just as fast. Of course, then you have to crop and tag each one to separate them. If you leave space between them on the vertical bias, it will scan them separately, but of course it takes a little longer. You can easily do two 5x7 photos at a time. It will do 2 passes and give you 2 separate images if done as I described above.

I am scanning photos right now - the plate is immense - I've just been filling it - scanning the whole thing and then cropping individual photos out - and saving as jpg files

You can scan pictures and depending on the size of the picture being scanned, it can work perfectly HOWEVER the picture will be bent by the roller. If the paper the picture is printed on can withstand being bent by the roller, you're good ... but a lot of photo stocks won't withstand it. I figure here than anything 4 x 6 or smaller scans very well. Anything larger than that, I use my flatbed scanner.

No you dont. Unfortunately you only have two options of scanning it... 14MP or 22MP! Each photo scanned has the size of 3144 x 2232 and about 3,60MB.

You can preview/scan several pictures at a time and still use the marque box tool to scan them individually. or just scan them all or scan them one at a time.

it depends on the resolution you set the scanner at: a 300dpi color image, 3"x3" would be about 4-5 Mb

Nope. but you can put several photos on the scanner bed to scan at once. The scanner bed is about 9 in x 14 in.

Are you kidding? Who do you know that has purchased BOTH??? All I can say is that the 9000F2 does a great job on picture scanning - I've scanned lots. The trick is to position 4-6 photos on the platen, then set the Scan & Preview resolutions the same. Then you can choose each photo and save it without having to rescan between each save.
