DIY Book Scanner

I think what is happening may be: I am not using the "Split Pages" feature. I have had some wild cropping since this post, but not at the angle. I have gone back and clicked on Split Pages and been able to change the capture. Then reprocessed the offending image through Deskew and Select C...

A couple of times now I have had an editing problem. The first time, I went back to my Opticbook and scanned the offending pages to solve the problem, but this time I thought I would ask for some advice. Below you can see what Scan Tailor Advanced has done to an image when it starts to process it. I...

Update: I have played with the shutter speed to darken the images. It seems to work. My lighting is 2x40 watt incandescent bulbs. I was using a shutter speed of 30, and have moved to 125. The images look dark on the pi capture screen, and on the Scan Tailor screen. But, Scan Tailor does an excellent...

I am not sure whether the problem I am having with light B&W images is related to camera exposure or lighting or something else. The image on the left is with my DYI scanner running two Cannon 2200s. The one on the right is with my flatbed. I would like the result from my DYI with the 2200s to a...

Thanks.

I am wondering if it is possible to capture the scans in grayscale rather than color, if so, where?
I am running Pi-Scan 1.5 with a setup similar to Tenrec.

Thanks

Thank you for the input, I now have everything working as it should, I think:)

I should probably start a new thread to ask this...

Thanks

I have a Raspberry 2 with a Raspberry 7" touchscreen. It looks like it is working as it should. I have a couple of used A2500 cameras. I have flashed a couple of 35G cards with pi-scan-camera-a2500-4317.img. I have a couple of A2200 cameras with chdk on them. It is easy to see that chdk is oper...
