What are other ways of rephrasing the sentence?

Thanks
I'll send you scanned pictures of my single reflex.

What is a single reflex?

There's probably no need to mention that they are scanned, so probably the most natural way to say it is, "I'll send you pictures of my single reflex." If you have a need to distinguish that you are sending all of them, you could say, "... you the pictures..." If you want to distinguish that you are sending some of them, then, "... you some pictures..."

If you do need to clarify that they are scanned, and not taken with a digital camera, then your sentence is fine. The same comments apply about adding "the" or "some."

Hope that helps.
