Prizmo 1.0 from Creaceed is an answer to the idle musing of no doubt many a user – an app that allows you to use your digital camera as a "scanner" for both 2D and 3D objects, including receipts, book and magazine pages, signs and posters, landscapes, and more. Its bundled software allows you to correct the resulting image for contrast, sharpening, and – impressively – for perspective, too. The resulting images can be printed, emailed, or saved to disk. Includes support for JPEG, RAW, and TIFF input images, and more. Any digital camera will do, but it for best results it recommend a 10-megapixel camera or higher. For potentially saving you the cost of a scanner such as the ScanSnap or the newly released NeatDesk for Mac, however, there is a price.
