I get the impression that using a half-decent camera is quite popular for book scanning. Seems like the Internet Archive is using it quite a lot. Have experimented a bit myself, the main problem is getting the book page sufficiently flat so the lines don't curve.
For images, it's simpler to use a scanner, but for text a camera should do, and is certainly very much quicker.
