Attach Cameras to the Mounts Depending on the model of the scanner, the camera brackets will come in varying sizes and configurations. For the most part, this will not affect the scanner’s assembly. In most cases, the camera mounts will arrive pre-assembled. If that is the case, you can safely skip to the next step.
