Does'nt anybody use a scanner??

All this talk of exposures and tripods and what not. Too complicated.... All the coins in my collection were scanned into the various sets. I've used a HP 4200C flat bed scanner for a long time. It's a no-brainer, you just lay the coin on the bed. Push a button or two and presto a great photo comes out. Perfectly exposed, no shaking hands, nothing. It also will scan at up to 3200DPI. Which is better than any digital camera I'm aware of today. I usually scan @ 400-600 DPI for all my pics, looks fine to me. I Think...
