it's all about what equipment you use and what you're doing with it
I have hi-res scanning equipment and I have a hi-res camera
depending on what final usage you have either one can have it's
advantages, one of them being that shooting photos with a
high-quality digital camera takes much less time than scanning equipment
the Canon DC-10 I have is almost as good as my scanners and if I had
a Canon with a CMOS element rather than CCD element, the quality
would be absolutely perfect. I believe that is the type of camera
Heritage photographers would be using (CMOS) as for print media you
need that quality. the Canon EOS 60D at 18mp CMOS and just $999 is a
perfect tool for the average user wanting print-quality results at
the lowest price. As you move up to the more expensive models, you
get to the sports photography level where you can blow up an image to
an 8 foot sign with no loss in picture quality and with super-high speed
you start talking about $15,000 and more expensive cameras and
they'll be as good in quality as any Linotype-Hell drum scanner

Hi to you all
I have recently started scanning lobby cards instead of
photographing them. 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.
Regards
John
