Sorry, when I was talking about cameras I meant I'd tried both the iphone and a standalone camera. I've even tried one that has a mat with it that is supposed to help line things up for you; I've read reviews from people who apparently use these quite well, but somehow not for me! Haven't tried scanstand or whatever it's called.
