Looking for Camera suggestions for taking pictures of cards

[cardfund]

Hey all, Looking for a good cheap camera for taking pictures of cards and listing on ebay. Also a label printer. I've been using my phone but think it's time to step it up a bit. Any other advice for taking pics of cards (background etc)


Any suggestions?

Thanks!

What's wrong with taking photos using your phone?

I use my phone which is more than enough for taking photos of cards. However I suggest purchasing a light box from eBay, that way they look nice and crisp with a plain white background or whatever backgrounds they include with it.

I use a light ring attached to my phone. Elevates all my photos and is portable so I can line up all my cards and quickly take pics of them.

As for a printer, I use a Dymo label printer (My model is LabelWriter 450).
Good quality and the software is excellent.

Any tips when using the light box on how to get the picture of the card square and straight?
