Hi there guys,
Thanks so much for the quick response. There are a few reasons to go for the flatbed as far as the discussions we have had here. Although we are not planning to digitise transparencies and film right this second, I would like to know we have bought something that could. But perhaps a smaller high-end scanner would be a better choice for this?
People know how to use them – they are less confident about being asked to use a camera.
Thirdly, I work for a local council and the technology procurement is reallllly painful. Explaining that we want a scanner throws them enough; explaining that we need a DSLR solution to the problem may make their heads explode. However, I do think your right, if there is a better solution than a flatbed then that discussion will have to happen anyway.
Thanks for everyone’s input, I will digest and plan the next steps.
Cheers,
ALex
