1. An optical code image scanner apparatus for scanning an optical code where blurring associated with the movement of the optical code is reduced, the apparatus comprising: an image capture device operable to capture an image comprising the optical code; and an image directing device where the image directing device reduces the apparent motion of the optical code relative to the image capture device by panning a directed image of the optical code across the image capture device as the image capture device captures an image of the optical code.
