Wow Sandra, that is defintively amazing! My scanner can't scan 3 D pieces, only photos or images! tiny objects are just blurry!
It would definitively make my life easier, is it expensive ? I guess i need first to check if it is sold in Finland? ;)

I ordered from www.pixmania.com, they deliver to Finland too :)
I payed (or my mum did :lol) 1800 norwegian kr, included shipping :) so its not too bad, it can also scan negatives (like old ones) and slides too :)

I promise you, if you get it, you cannot stop using it... it scans with the most impressive quality.. know what? We scanned a hairbrush.just for fun... it went straight into the garbage afterwords... cause it was like looking at a lab photo, you could seriously see EVERYTHING in there... :lol

That is amazing. A few years ago I purchased the negatives from my wedding and have been wanting to convert them to digital. This might just be my solution! Thanks for sharing!

I think it is this CanoScan 8800F here:
http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=120&modelid=15561
It seems to have a lot of really good reviews.
