Re: [Digital BW] B&W film Scanning with a DSLR

2008-02-29 by Flashbulb

Jordan;

At first I was taping the four corners of the negative directly to the
lightbox and placing the mask on top of the neg. Next, I will try
using the film holder that came with my Epson 2450. At F/11 with a
DSLR you have pretty good depth of focus so absolute film flatness is
less critical than with a traditional flatbed or dedicated film scanner.
