A couple of days ago I borrowed a tourist range digital camera. I could digitize 8 pages per minute. It was as fast and easy as I had predicted. The digitization speed was limited only by image transfer technology, not by speed of my fingers. "Easy" is the keyword here.
How did OCR'ing go? I wonder because the resolution of cheap digital cameras is quite low for scanning. For example, to scan an A4 page (aspect ratio: sqrt(2)) with a usual digital camera (aspect ratio of images: 4:3) in 300DPI, you need a camera with more than nine mega-pixels. -- Felix E. Klee
