Photo comparisons
Jan. 22nd, 2015 09:19 amI tried taking some pictures of my artbook and making a scan for the sake of comparison. Resting a remote control on the pages that were trying to turn over on me worked fairly well. A paperweight would be the ideal solution to pages staying in place, but only if those pages aren't the ones I want to take pictures of. (Maybe bulldog clips would work there?)
Anyway, I made a comparison.

Of course the scanner would be the best one. Digital camera (Samcam = Samsung camera) is the worst one. I turned flash off because flash causes annoying light reflection.) Also, my hands shake like hell taking pictures with it. Useless.
iPhone really isn't much better.
I tried taking more pictures with the iPhone.

They seem a bit better, but I think the lighting needs improvement. The light is coming from my ceiling light so it comes out very yellow... natural light would be better. I don't get much natural light in here though so my room can be pretty dark.
Is there a solution for flash and the issue of reflection? Guess I'll look but I doubt it.
