Abstract

A flat bed scanner can be used as a high-resolution digital camera with close-up capabitlities for photographing plant material such as leaves, flowers, and plant pests. The scanner is very useful as a diagnostic and instructional tool that is more portable and less expensive than a camera and dissecting microscope. The quality of the images can be very good and can be enhanced in post-production using image editing software. The main disadvantage is the shallow depth of field, which requires the object be on a single plane.
