  • 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.

  • Have to have a setup like this sooner or later - best before scanning costs are ruining me ideally.
    Guess the difficulties regarding getting colours right lie in correcting the orange mask of the particular film?
    Haven't tried this, but wouldn't using curve adjustements on a "scanned" blank piece of developed negative work?

    This has to work perfectly if you know how -
    apparently Ming Thein scans his analog work with this method, and it's impecable.
    He does share most of his knowledge, for free - but that scanning technique he keeps to himself..
