Perhaps your company or organization has recently decided to implement a visual identification program and you’re new to the digital camera market? Or maybe you have an ID system in place, but are looking to upgrade from a standard digital camera to digital camera specially made for capturing ID photos to better streamline your process? In either case, you are taking the right steps by comparing camera features, reading customer reviews, and exploring all that ID Wholesaler has to offer in the way of ID cameras. Just as important as selecting an ID card printer and encoder, finding the right photo ID camera can make a considerable difference in terms of quality and efficiency.
When searching for the ideal photo ID camera to use with your card printing system, here are some questions to help narrow your selection:
Additionally, if you have ample space, you may want to consider using a tripod and a photo backdrop with your ID camera to create a consistent and professional look with uniform lighting in your photo IDs.
While you certainly can use a standard digital camera to take your ID photos, doing so is going to create a great deal of unnecessary work. Photo ID cameras are TWAIN compliant, meaning that they are able to feed live images directly into your ID card software, saving you time and effort. Standard digital cameras lack this functionality, which means that you will need to connect your camera to your computer via USB cable, import your images, browse and upload the desired image to your ID card software, and then manually crop and edit the image to fit your template. This time-consuming process may work if you issue a very low volume of ID cards per year, but it quickly becomes inefficient and impractical if you are running a standard, mid-, or high-volume card issuance program.
