Scanner camera using what program?  I have the Pearl (spelling) for OB, it 
is much faster than scanning with a flatbed, and just about as accurate for 
most books.  There is a camera also for the Document Scanner available with 
the System Access screen-reader.  I haven't used it, but I'd assume similar 
or maybe just a tad below the results with Openbook because I don't get the 
same recognition quality when using their OCR as I do with Openbook or 
Kurzweil.  OB9 is much better than Kurzweil with recognizing pdf images.
