Abstract:
    A device for recording information by means of imaging with the aid of a light-sensitive sensor with a two-dimensional sensor surface is described. The device is adjustable between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the imaging is effected by means of a plurality of images with partially overlapping contents. Each of the images depicts a small area on an information carrier and the images are put together into a composite image. In the second mode, the imaging is effected by means of at least one image of a larger area of the information carrier. The device has means for indicating the size of the imaging area.
