I commented on this digital cameras post the other day. The author used his Pentax Optio S4 to make copies of some of the families old photos. He had linked to a post where a student had used his digital camera to take shots of the assignments board at college. I’ve used my Optio S4, replacing my scanner, to shoot pages from documents and pages from books I wanted to OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to save some typing.
The digital camera has become quite a tool, not only for recording memories but one of convenience.
