photographing documents

[AndyH-pr]

I think any scanner that will handle such large documents is going to be rather expensive. Also, unless perhaps it is very expensive, it is going to be rather slow. Scanning in pieces and then trying to fit the pieces together is real pain and a big time consumer.

Is this 'copy stand' your term or is that the general name they are sold under. By using an enlarger, you made an ersatz copy stand, or this is another general name for an enlarger?

These ring stands from a scientific supply house are devices for holding a camera, or just for holding lights for photography?

They are made to hold laboratory glassware and an appropriate clamp would have to be found/made to hold a camera. - TF
