<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 248621, member: 4552"]Scanners are OK but a digital camera would be better. You said your camera doesn't work. Not clear as to if the camera is broke or you can not use it for coins. However, with the prices of digital cameras today I would suggest that you look into buying a new one. You can use a scanner for lots of things but they don't work well for taking photos of your family, friends, neighbors, etc. You sure would look funny trying to place the scanner next to people outdoors. Try to remember a camera can be used for more than coins. Almost every day the prices of digital cameras is dropping and the amount of features they have is increasing. Example is I recently bought one for $60 that is an off brand but has telephoto, wide angle, macro, movie capability, 5 megapixel quality that is changeable and lots of other stuff I'll never use. With a camera that uses SD or Compact Flash cards of 2 gigs you could take thousands of photos and choose which ones you like and delete the rest. Just can't beat a camera.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
