I am in the process of purchasing a scanner to upload photos of maps to the
internet and would appreciate any advice on hardware, software, etc.  (I am
assuming digital cameras do not adequately reproduce map images;  correct?).

Also, any advice on taking photos of maps.  I already own a decent, though
old, Canon A-1 camera.

Thank you in advance for any assistance provided.
