    "Crappy phone camera" while using a Pixel lol

    • @TexelGuy
      @TexelGuy 7 років тому +39

      To be fair, the pixel's camera could never match the quality of a real scanner. Which is what he meant I think.

    • @AnonymousMachine
      @AnonymousMachine 7 років тому +8

      TessellatedGuy he said crappy phone camera, that's not "what he meant" it's pretty clear what he said.
      Also, yes, it can match and even get a superior quality, since it is... you know... a camera.

    • @AdamEspinosa
      @AdamEspinosa 7 років тому +29

      Cameras can be much higher quality than scanners, the main issue is getting the consistent lighting that scanners are great at.

    Noob Luke... The scanner doesn't work like that. Little chinease people sit in the scanner and looks at the image you are trying to digitize. They convert it to binary image and they send it to the PC via the usb cable. This is why the box itself is so big.

      That is a Google Pixel.
      Phone cameras are greatly inferior to scanners though. It is next to impossible to get it flat using the bundled camera app. Apps like Microsoft's Office Lens help, but you can't beat a flatbed scanner.

      Paul Hojda I don't know if you've heard of this, but most phones have a thing called a flash specifically for lighting up your images. It usually doesn't take more than a few taps in the camera application to activate it.

    my scanner is built into my printer and not gonna lie, for me, buying a printer comes down to which option has the best value refill cartridges. I'm sure a professional photographer or whatever might care about performance and junk but given the prices on toner and ink these days; you could give me the world's highest quality printer/scanner for free and I'd still feel ripped off when refilling the printer 3 times costs more than a new printer, which is often the case.

    Do I have to look for a CCD scanner instead of a CIS scanner to achieve my goal? Thank you so much if you can help.

    Interpolation is indeed trickery. Ever look at the specs of some cheap Chinese generic smartphones that claim to have a 13 MP camera? Sometimes when you dig into the real specs you find that it is really just a 5 or 8 MP camera that is interpolated for a resolution of 13 MP. I don't have any problems with these phones probably because I don't own one and see how truly awful the picture quality is by comparison to my Xperia X 23 MP camera which BTW, has a _real_ 13 MP selfie camera. If you don't want a 5 inch phone there are compact models of some Xperias as well that still have all the features of the bigger ones except for the same screen.
