A3. The operating field of the A3 size is considered the initial for close-up shooting. The physical dimensions of the A3 format are 297×420 mm. The shooting area of A3 format allows you to operate with several documents of A4 format at once. Document cameras of this type are valued for no need to accurately place small 2D/3D objects on the desktop. A fairly large shooting area allows you to automatically recognize any small objects/documents.

A0. Document cameras with operating area of A0 format are perfect for digitizing engineering documentation, maps, large plans and diagrams. The A0 format is sized as 1189x841 mm. Document camer
...as have the use of high-quality optics with high resolution. The operating area of A0 size usually has a good backlight. Many document cameras also use a clamping glass, as well as various devices to support book spreads, folders and document containers.Camera
The detail rate of the resulting image depends on the number of megapixels. This setting is especially important when printing images on large media. So, experience shows that for high-quality digitization of documents in A4 format, it is necessary about 1-5 MP. Working with A3 documents, you need about 5-8 megapixels. For A2 format, you need 8-15 megapixels. But digitizing documentation in A0 format requires 10-20 megapixels or even more, depending on the required print quality.
Resolution
Resolution determines the depth and detail of a digital image. Resolution is especially important when displaying images on the screen, as well as printing digitized documents.
