Hi List, As I newly became list administrator, I wanted to double check the "TOPIC" information on the Scanner-Photo" information page. The name of the list kind of suggests that only scanners and photos should be discussed. This is the definition of the "topic" taken from the information page: "Topic: A mailing list dedicated to support of genealogists who use scanners and/or digital cameras for documentation. It suggests hardware and software, digital techniques, and tips". I think this gives us a lot of areas to discuss. A lot more than what I envisioned at first. Like Kraig said, anyone have any suggestions on using digital cameras to copy books, documents, etc? I have an older Sony Mavica (MVC-FD73) that uses the 3 1/2 disk. Maybe I don't really know how to accomplish it, but I have tried to photo copy, book pages & it doesn't come out very well. Maybe tell us what kind of cameras, settings, etc. to use. Donna
