Unrelated question: Many of the old pictures have a date in the margin. Is this the date the picture was taken or the date the picture was developed?
Thanks All!

That was the development date.
When buying scanners you will go for the more costly ones, quality cost (as always)
If you're going to print them you have to scan them to actual printsize at 360dpi for the optimum quality of the print. This means huge files. A lettersize image is around 35-40Mb.
To scan an small transparency or print the scanner has to enlarge to 600-1000% and to do that with quality result you'll need a good scanner, a semi-professional unit.
Epson V700 is a really good one, but the other below that is pretty good too. V500 & V600.
I have the V700 and it is top quality.
