At a sane price? The Epsons.

https://epson.com/For-Work/Scanners/Photo-and-Graphics/Epson...

It has a white panel on the inside of the lid which ruins a lot of scans. I always put black card on top of my scans.

That's probably the best scanner for photos. And I used to own a $25K Hasselblad too.

Make sure you clean the platten and the photos before scanning to save hassle later on dust removal.

I used those Epsons for scanning tens of thousands of old photos.

Start with a good scan, and there is so much good post-processing software out there now to help correct fading etc on old images.
