I'm in the process of downloading all my photos to my computer. I currently am using a Canon MP130 multifunction printer but it takes about 2 minutes to scan a full platen of pictures.

Are there any multifunction printers with a high scan rate or failing that what would be a good dedicated scanner.

I'm looking at about 5K+ pictures.

Multifunction printers are not going to do a great job so you would likely need to spend a good deal of money on a high speed dedicated scanner which could be big dollars.

Have you investigated as photo scanning service.
