I think so many photograph because the scanners that handle oversize items like lobby cards can be pretty costly. I myself have always used a scanner because it is a lot easier to get true color realistic images of the item. I myself am needing to pick up another scanner that handles large items and there is only one that is available at a somewhat reasonable price (around $250). All others run $500 to $1500. I think that is why so many still do their images using cameras. Just my 2 cents..... Rick www.ilovefilms.com

I notice that many dealers including the major dealers still photograph lobby cards to add to their websites. Just curious as to whether anyone sees any problems with scanning lobby cards rather than photographing them.
