Digital Camera verses Flatbed Scanner.
I seldom use my Flatbed Scanner for knife pictures, however with the beautiful colors on my new Case Trapper, I thought I would give it a try.
I think I'll start playing with my flatbed scanner a little more. Much to learn and many options on scanning to learn, trial and error I suppose.

What are your opinions, pointers and experiences on scanning?

Digital pictures below, with my Canon G11 SLRC:
IMG_0002 (5).JPG
IMG_0007 (1).JPG
IMG_0006 (5).JPG

And two Flatbed Scanner pictures below:

I don't even know what a flatbed scanner is. ::dang::
Unlike other types of scanners, a flatbed scanner only requires the user to lay the document onto the glass and close the lid. Almost all flatbed scanners have an adjustable lid which can be raised to allow thicker materials to be scanned. A transparent media adapter, found in some flatbed scanners, can scan film and glass negatives. Some flatbed scanners can also have additional features such as automatic document feeders and wireless or Bluetooth connectivity.

Flatbed scanners are known for their high-quality scans. Due to their ability to scan thick objects, flatbed scanners are more versatile than sheet-fed scanners. There is a significant reduction in risk of documents being damaged during scanning, as there is no movement required of the documents, unlike drum or handheld scanners. Again, compared to a sheet-fed scanner which can accept only paper documents, flatbed scanners can accept magazines, books and other thick objects. High speed and productivity are also possible through flatbed scanners.

Drawbacks of flatbed scanners include being large and bulky. They consume more space than other scanners, and they can also be expensive.

Thank you sir for the education.
I now know what you are talking about. I guess I just never heard the phrase "flatbed " before now.

Sweet cleaver, and love the bead with the spent shell casing imbedded. Great artistic interpretation. One of a kind.

Your welcome Tom. ::handshake::

I purchased my first "Flatbed Scanner" in the mid-late 80s, I remember it was quite expensive, however, now they can be purchased for less than a hundred dollars and come with all the bells and whistles. They are a must have for professional photographers (which I am not) for photo negatives of all sizes.
The one I pictured above, the "Epson Perfection V600 Photo" is the one I have had for a couple years. It's an older Epson scanner but they still sell many of this model, a real workhorse.
I downloaded the Windows 10 Epson software when I upgraded my computer last year (2020) with no problem.
Just plug it into your computer via USB, download the included software, and walla, done.
After downloading your scans into your computer via USB you can work with your scans with your picture and photo software.
Many home computer printers have a scanning device built in, however, a dedicated "Flatbed Scanner" performs with excellent quality that printer scanners can not match.
