How do take good close shot photos of documents One of the purposes of my phone investment is to quickly take photos of documents.

I find this difficult.  When I hold it with my hand it takes a long time to get “focused”.
I have a Notes 3.

Stability would help of course, but don’t know exactly how to do that.  What could help is if the photo is automatically taken when focus is achieved, perhaps with “retries” until it is OK.
Use Evernote. It has a dedicated Page Camera feature for your purpose. You can continuously snap documents with it.

If you are a premium user, keywords from your snapped documents will be indexed with OCR technologies (which will be useful in searching). And, it works great (I am a premium user &amp; I have used it). If you aren't, just buy premium subscription for 1 month... Indexing continue to exist after 1 month (but new documents won't be indexed).
