For old pictures, done correctly you will never know the difference between scanned and taken with a camera vs. the original. When I have done it, I use an articulated tripod whose vertical arm can drop horizontal over the picture so the camera I'd dead centered and doesn't move. And use FLAT light! no flash. It's so much easier and less a headache than using a scanner.
you got that right. much faster too. my copy stand probably works similarly to your tripod.
