• First scan from my deconstructed durst enlarger, OM-D EM-1 + Olympus 45mm F1.8 on a macro tube mounted on the sliding head and light-box on the base with 35mm slide on top.

    This was at F10, 1/400th and ISO 200. The image covers about 90% of the sensor.

    It's a black and white conversion in Lightroom, seems like colour would be seriously difficult to get looking right!

    I also realise I didn't align neg properly and have a sliver of the next image in here too.

  • Been meaning to try something like this for ages, which would save a metric ton of cash with processing and hopefully better results than a lab once it's all nailed.

    Yeah, getting the colour right is meant to be super fiddly. Loads of curves adjustment in photoshop. I think someone made a set of photoshop actions for various films that you can download. Will try and find it.

    The slide duplicator method seems to require a pile of adaptors so the below method might be easier:

  • That's basically what I have done but my camera is attached to the sliding head of the enlarger and the light box is under the negative holder. Alignment is a manual and is probably the trickiest part.
