Hi Robert!
I have the can resting on the table making sure it's still. I move the
camera up and down rather than trying to move sideways while I am looking
for the part of the label that shows the kind of food. That way, I can
tell immediately if I have to read the text normal or inverted. I just
hold the camera between my thumb and forefinger of my right hand and have
the other three fingers resting on the can to hold it still so that when I
am at the point where I can read what is in the can, the can stays still
for me. It's a tricky thing to do--reading a cylindrical object such as a
can or jar label, but I've been doing it for thirty years, (can hardly
believe that), so I've had lots of practice.
