I'm planning and calculating a large digitization project and want to check certain things (how good does the OCR-software read the originals for example).<BR/>... the originals can't be moved out of their original place.<BR/><BR/>To do check-scans I use a small scanner like a CanoScan LiDE 90, which can be powered over usb. The quality of these scanners is sufficient just to check what difficulties could arise with the OCR-Software (in my case FineReader). I run a single license of FR on the laptop, where as in the office we run FR on a three-machine-cluster.<BR/><BR/>If the originals can't be moved I often take a Nikon D200 with various fixed focus lenses (24/2.8, 35/2, 60/2.8 Macro, 85/1.8). It's important to use a sturdy tripod and a good head (ArcaSwiss Ballhead in my case).<BR/><BR/>For Audio I use a Laptop with Adobe Audition and a RME Fireface 400 DA-Converter. I also have a pair of Fostex 6301 loudspeakers to control the sound very roughly. If it has to be very mobile I take a Marantz PMD 670 which is handy to copy for example DAT at a customers place or digitize reel-to-reel on an original machine.t.wildi@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529031307824459101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8137713.post-84990684502120729572007-12-27T04:06:00.000-05:002007-12-27T04:06:00.000-05:00I use a digital camera (Canon EOS 300D) with a tri...I use a digital camera (Canon EOS 300D) with a tripod and a laptop. Using the remote control option (space bar takes a picture) I can take about 600 pictures per hour. <BR/><BR/>I use this setup for creating digital images where readability (not preservation) is the goal.Yvette Hoitinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10807310204372870735noreply@blogger.com
