How about a video where you turn the labels. You could pause to read the ones you want.

-----------------
Hi 'tgreenhaw'... I'll have to THINK that over (some of the Labels, top to bottom, over lap each other). --- Thanks for the Solution.

Remove all the labels, flatten them, then photograph or scan them.

That's my WAG

Anyone who can write ought to be able to copy it. Or, maybe the label can be peeled off in one piece.

Hi 'Leitz'... On a couple of larger bottles, the labelS are on 360° of the Surface ...and Overlapping. -- THANKS for your Solution.

Please post your results of the flat bed scan idea :-)


You talking to me?????

If so, unfortunately I can't post these results, as I no longer have that image.
A friend of mine needed the info from the label, so I scanned, e-mailed her the image and when I knew she'd received it, deleted it from my own computer.

Probably the labels cover more than 180 degrees around the bottle, so cannot be covered in one shot. Might be able to stitch two or more shots; might be easiest to soak labels in Oops! so they peel off for a flat shot.

Hi 'jerryc41'... I'm SO sorry, I'm having difficulty visualizing your suggestion. Remember, the Labels cover 360° on the bottle (I should have been That specific).


Okay. Got it. Right now, there's no way to take a picture of the front of the bottle and the rear at the same time. You could use mirrors, but that would introduce another problem. You'll need several shots to get the entire label.

Hi 'jerryc41'... I'm studying HOW to make the PANO-Image 'Double-Tap-Bigger'. --- Snappy Happy reminded me that my little Apple iPod Touch has a Pano Mode.

"You could try a camera with panorama mode (cell phone), and move the camera around the bottle until you complete the shot."

Any THOUGHTS Jer.?.?.?

Re: 'One Picture of ALL-Labels on Pill Bottle'

Hi Hogs... I recently decided to TRY a protocol of Essential-Nutriants. MY specific protocol involves several pills and capsules in bottles. The Bottles are covered in Labels containing that specific 'Product's Ingrediants and specific information'. I want to take ONE-Picture of Each Bottle which will allow me or my friends to see and easily read ALL the information on ALL the associated Labels of Each of the Several Bottles. --- --- Is there a WAY to ACHIEVE taking those pictures.???

Place the bottle on center of a lazy Susan. Put camera on tripod and frame in on the beginning of label area. Set camera in panoramic shot. Click shutter and slowly turn the lazy susan. You may have to practice a few times to get the timing. Most point and shoot cameras have a panoramic mode. So do most smart phones.

Do you have a Lazy Susan anywhere in your kitchen or dining room?

Set your camera on a tripod.

Center the bottle on the Lazy Susan and start shooting from one edge of the label and rotate the Lazy Susan a little bit at a time to the far side.

Use a panorama set up in your post processing software to "stitch" the shots together.

In order to do this correctly, you'll have to maintain a constant distance from the camera lens to the label.

Real easy have the pharmacist print each label for you. Do not mount it but just give it to you. Then scan each one or all at once depending on the size of the scanner.
No fuss no muss and will come out far superior to trying to photograph them mounted in the round.
