I am finding that the scans work pretty well although the scans don't show up
flaws like pinholes, etc as well as photographs. It looks as though Bruce
doesnt use a scanner. I would be interested to see his and other opinions on
whether the process is faster by photographing lobby cards.

I think so many photograph because the scanners that handle oversize items
like lobby cards can be pretty costly. I myself have always used a scanner
because it is a lot easier to get true color realistic images of the item. I
myself am needing to pick up another scanner that handles large items and there
is only one that is available at a somewhat reasonable price (around $250).
All others run $500 to $1500. I think that is why so many still do their
images using cameras. Just my 2 cents..... Rick www.ilovefilms.com

Subject: [MOPO] Question for dealers
Hi to you all
I have recently started scanning lobby cards instead of photographing them. I
notice that many dealers including the major dealers still photograph lobby
cards to add to their websites. Just curious as to whether anyone sees any
problems with scanning lobby cards rather than photographing them.
Regards
