View Full Version : ANR Glass Prone to Fingerprints?

I have the BetterScanning holder, and I wear Nitrile gloves when using the BS holder.
Funny thing, my film never gets finger prints on it, but the ANR glass does.
I've tried vinyl gloves, and the same thing happens.

I know that cotton gloves are recommended, but I'd think those would transmit finger oil even more readily.

Any suggestions borne of experience? Latex?

Thanks in advance.

Ari,

Cotton gloves do the trick.

hate to say it but I don't use gloves, the glass gets fingerprints on it, and I've never noticed it on the scans.

I'm a slobographer.

Agrred, the fingerprints on the glass don't really show up, but I'd be worried about prints on the negs!
