Microtek i800. But I think it's more the scanner software and settings. It's VueScan from http://hamrick.com. If you buy it, I can send you the settings I've been using.

I use vuescan. My slabs turn out ok but my raw books don't looks so good. I use an HP scanjet 8250.  Nice books!! I'm eyeballing some of these closely.

Michael, if you feel like experimenting, give these settings a try.

EDIT: But for the new CGC slabs where with the inner wells that sit recessed in the holder, I have to make a window in photoshop and increase the brightness of the book. Otherwise, the book is too dark.

If you've never bought from Barton, he has really nice comics. They look just as good in hand.

Great! Thanks a bunch! I'll see if these settings work for raw books...My slabs look fine with my settings. Much appreciated.
