That helps. I'll try the calibration, perhaps that works. The light bar and the CIS seem to be in the same casing, removing one would mean I also remove the other. Perhaps another scanner could do...

Nice photo's Skywatcherjan. Did you alter the scanner? I have difficulties with shooting outdoors, I think to much UV light.
Thank's mister Graves. For those who are intersted:

Been following this thread for a while. This is what you've got to work with:

I would just go for it. The only problem is that the more...
I find it very annoying when someone is blocking the view with an I-pad. Beyond that, it is easy for pickpockets to spot the expensive stuff, walk by and grab the loot. Also, I don't see the added...
That's it! Thanks.
I like silly idea's. :)
That is a good practical idea. However, I've got a view camera. It can tilt, shift, rise and fall. So placing the digital camera on the lens board requires ajusting the board...
The camera can tilt and shift. I would need some extra length on the bellows to do that. Question is, how long?
I’ve made a DIY camera (no reproduction, no standard dimensions). All I’ve got is the front standard size, the rear standard size and the base length. I’ve made a paper version that works, but it’s a...
Thanks unixrevolution (Oh, I should call you Erik), it does look like something I've never seen before. The apple with banana's photo was just enough exposed to see a faint image. A 30sec shot with...
@cgrab: the paint I used? on the camera I used a mahogany stain. On the plate I used glow-in-the-dark paint from a local store called HEMA. It's more like a thick gel than paint. It's water based so...
The time I have to expose the GITD image to something else (like film or paper) is just a matter of minutes. I have a couple of rolls of 35mm film laying around. I could give that a try, although...
As for scanning the GITD image, it doesn't work. Nothing but white, leaving an even luminated sheet.
I did managed to make another image. Apple and bananas still life:

I think I...
Meanwhile I've been Googleing and searching Wikipedia for Xerography and Photoconductivity (that's what the coating does what Sevo mentioned). For now I'm stuck with the photographing after GITD...
Thanks Steve. It does have similarities with X-ray.
About the workings of a xerox-machine
Let’s see if I get this right. A xerox machine works like this. A drum gets static electrically charged....
I haven't had light cross-pollution so far. The image was quite bright to start with, but as you mentioned, sharply fades to black. It had a kind of over exposed/cross-pollute flare, but after a...
Thanks. The idea was to take pictures with this on location. Store the plates. Go home and take a picture with a digital camera later in a darkened room.
Back to the drawing board for that idea.

And now for something completely different:

Glow in the dark paint on a plate. The image remains for a couple of minutes before it fades to black. Just enough time to take a digital...
It worked!!!
This is the camera setup I had for tonight.

This is the view thru the ground glass.

And after half an hour exposure time, this is the result.

I have to admit, our 3 year old daughter is the least of my worries. It's the dark room, materials, chemicals. Not being able to go to a random store and buy the stuff I need. And frankly, since...
Some of you may know, I have build a large format camera with a flatbed scanner behind it.
Here more info about the build:...
First post since a while. I was just lurking around when I found this thread.
About a year ago we've lost our newborn son. We took a lot of pictures of the little guy, before and after he died. (he...

Picture taken with my Revueflex 35mm slr. I hed the film developed and scanned the negative. The scanner I use doesn't stay true to colors. I have to change them after I scan. I try not to...
I've made an un-acurate LF camera with 2x2's and plywood sheets. I think it was birch or poplar. The reason I used those materials is that first I had it laying around the garage and second, I wanted...
It's been a while since I've played around with the scanner camera.
Right now it looks like this:

Hello Eduardo, if the picture you found on Flickr is taken with a pinhole camera with one month exposure, than I have to be more patient. I did a 3 day exposure with my homemade large format camera....
I've got a scenery I want to photograph, somewhere on my half hour drive to work. It's a flat land with some treelines and rural road. Nothing spectacular, but it practically screams for a nice...
Camera finished (for now, untill I find the right technique with good access ingredients and chemicals)
I've got a DIY mechanical iris, but it's not acurate enough. I think I'm going to go for...
I haven't got a clue why this website was mentioned. Perhaps something to do with alternative printing processes?
I've got that same problem. I'm trying to find alternative ways to take pictures, develope and print.

At APUG I also asked this question.
I haven't checked them, but these websites...
the contact print worked. 3 days of sun bleached the paper good enough to leave a mark. With a darker painted paper to start with and a bit more patience the print would be better. The experiment...
Not a "poor man" solution, more of a "poor man that owes some people some money" solution.
A flatbed scanner with some minor hardware and software ajustments can create a b/w image. An average...
I made another batch with alcohol (Denatured alcohol) and purple Anemone. This works 100% better than with water. It doesn't wrinkle the paper and it dries almost instantly. The trypod for my DIY...
I've made a large format camera with a regular magnifying glass as a lens. It works. Well it creates a clear image on the A4 size ground glass. I did some experimenting with a flatbed scanner and...
I'm actually not interested in the price of Manarchy's product. If he thinks he can ask $50k for a session, good for him. There are probably enough people or companies that want to pay for it. Demand...
Wikipedia shows us a picture of Lawrence with his mamoth camera. The lens seems to be about 50cm in diameter. That seems a bit more convincing than Manarchy's 10cm lens.
The 1905 photograph of...
I know it has been done before, Lenny. I've seen an article with a picture of a similar size camera. According to the article, the camera was designed and made to take a detailed picture of a...
From the article;"When I take the cover off, it's dark so there's no exposure until I flash it. So I take the cover off and flash it and put the cover back on," Manarchy said.
No shutter, just a...
@genotypewriter. As a novice with just the basic physics knowledge I can follow your calculations. Something is off, but I can't figure out what it is. It's like figuring out a magicians secret. ...
First of all, I'm a complete novice when it comes to LF photography. I just started to get into it.
A quick search on "the Bay of E" gave me some LF cameras, from 200 Euro up to 3000+ Euro. It all...
