A digital camera is equipped with means for recognising if the information in an image is text- or image-based, or can also be used for conventional digital photographing. It is also equipped with optical character reading-means (OCR). Several methods of using such a camera are described, e.g. ordering articles and services from advertisements or catalogues; creating case records for medical care; transmitting hand-written letters and messages by mobile phone; registering and manipulating documentation from appointments and conferences; and controlling flows of packets, goods or products.
