If you have boxes of printed photographs you keep meaning to digitize, start here. This slim little scanner lets you preserve old prints, letters and other pieces of family history without needing an enormous office setup—or mailing your only copy of something precious away.

It connects to your computer with one cord, is compact enough to tuck away when you aren’t using it and scans photos at a much higher resolution than simply taking a picture of them with your phone. Because the things tucked inside those old photo boxes deserve a backup, too.
