Preferably open source.
Well, hand-written scores are not (well or at all) supported by any OMR application that I'm aware of. With printed scored, I have had the best results with SmartScore, but I have no idea how well or if at all it understands hand-written scores. If you find any OMR application, that exports to MusicXML (SmartScore or Audiveris do), you can then use musicxml2ly to convert the MusicXML file to lilypond...
