Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How can a TWAIN Application know whether a Data Source is a Scanner or a Digital Camera?

TWAIN-- Standard for image acquisition devices.
Answer: Currently TWAIN does not define a standard method to get from a TWAIN Data Source the type/class of the image acquisition device it drives.

Question: Is it possible from a TWAIN application to know if a scanner is a flatbed scanner or not?

TWAIN-- Standard for image acquisition devices.
Answer: Yes, it is. If CAP_FEEDERENABLED is not supported or it is but it cannot be set to true then it is safe to assume the scanner is a flatbed-only device (at least, this is the functionality that can be accessed from its TWAIN Data Source). If CAP_FEEDERENABLED is supported and can be set to true then the scanner is equipped with a feeder. If CAP_AUTOFEED is supported and can be set to true then the feeder is an automatic document feeder (ADF).

Photo scanning can be done at copy and print shops and film can be developed and placed on CDs at most film processing centers. These photos can then be emailed to us. Pictures can also be sent to us via conventional mail and we will scan them in for you. There will be a separate fee for scanning and touch-ups of print photos. We strongly advise you to send us copies of photos and not the originals. However, if you would like your photos returned, please specify that clearly.

Yes, however there are some exceptions. Send us your data by e-mail and we will let you know. The quality is very diverse in many cases.

Where Can I Get A Digital Scanner?

Strong Signals - New Scanner Users FAQ
Uniden was the first to release a commercially available digital scanner in January, 2003. The handheld BC250D and base/mobile BC785D allow for 3600 baud APCO P25 digital signals to be received, trunk-tracked and listened to. These scanners will also allow 9600 baud APCO P25 systems to be listened to but they are not able to trunk-track them. AOR is also working on an external decoding box to handle digital formats as well but there is very little known about it at this time.

Can I use my digital camera as a webcam?

Digital Photography FAQ
Some cameras are designed for this, so you should check your manual. It's rare to find this feature in high quality digital cameras, but lower quality multifunction cameras with CMOS sensors sometimes offer this. See, for example, AipTek. If your camera doesn't already support some webcam features, you may still be able to do it if you have a video capture card (or USB device) of some kind, by connecting the video out from your camera to the video in on your PC.

The good news is, unless you are shooting close-up pictures of jewelry, you don't need an expensive camera to take good product shots. If you are shooting pictures for use on websites and not for print, you can get a good camera for less than $200. The quality of your images is going to depend much less on the sophistication of your camera and much more on your lighting and how well you operate the camera.
