The Sony PRS-505 manages ok.

Albeit, as Harry said, scanned PDFs are in a different category from text-based PDFs. Chances are your image-based PDFs will not be too snappy on page-turns.

I highly recommend you consider putting your scanned books through manga2pdf so the images are quality-optimized for the Sony PRS-505 and your page load times are minimized. Keep the higher quality originals though... because you won't have a limited 3rd generation eBook reader forever.
