It\u2019s a good question that has many answers.<\/p>\n<p>The first problem I have with using is a scanner is\u2026 I don\u2019t have one. OK that\u2019s not 100% true because I think I have one lurking at the back of a cupboard but it\u2019s not something I\u2019ve need for a very long time.<\/p>\n<p>Handy as a scanner is, a camera offers many advantages. It has a higher resolution, it shoots RAW I can set and control the lighting and finally if I have lots of photos to shoot, it\u2019s quicker to use this kind of set up. <\/p>\n<p>You may also ask why I didn\u2019t use flash. Well there\u2019s no reason why I couldn\u2019t use flash and the end result would have been just as good. The reason I love continuous lighting for restoration is simply that I can see exactly what the end result will be before I take the photo.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; width: 737px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; padding-top: 0px\" id=\"scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:8ac92d60-3cb2-44ee-9f5d-a87c19779a0c\" class=\"wlWriterEditableSmartContent\">\n<div><object width=\"737\" height=\"414\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/OnD9tU3UvFI?hl=en&amp;hd=1\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/OnD9tU3UvFI?hl=en&amp;hd=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"737\" height=\"414\"><\/embed><\/object><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Equipment used in the video:<br \/>Flashpoint two light kit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/LTO2S.html?KBID=67338\">http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/LTO2S.html?KBID=67338<\/a><br \/>Canon 5D Mark II <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/ICA5DM2.html?KBID=67338\">http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/ICA5DM2.html?KBID=67338<\/a><br \/>Canon 24-105mm L f\/4 IS <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/CA24105AFU.html?KBID=67338\">http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/CA24105AFU.html?KBID=67338<\/a><br \/>Manfrotto 055 Pro <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/BG055XPROB.html?KBID=67338\">http:\/\/www.adorama.com\/BG055XPROB.html?KBID=67338<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Photo itself was brought into the studio by a local resident who was compiling a family history.
