Hello Andy, A cheaper option for you might be Text Grabber plus translator which, as its name implies, also does machine translation.
For really good results, you need some way of holding your iPhone steady while you take the picture, and some way of ensuring that you have sufficient light to take a good picture. The StandScan Pro, foldaway portable scan box is a very useful piece of equipment. It folds flat and will fit into a document folder and has 15 LEDs to light it inside. It costs around $30.
