LF Scan/Camera

[Cesar Barreto]

Hi, all.

Found in the net an article (at www.cs.ubc.ca/~swang/Research/ScanCam/scancam.html) on using a flatbed Canon Lide 30 as a capturing device behind a Bender 8x10. The author states 122million pixels images after a lot of work on adapting the scanner to lens imaging and correcting for a bunch of digital artifacts. This particular scanner was chosen for it's technology on scanning through a long row of sensors across the image area, instead of mirrors concentrating data over a smaller sensing spot.
Have anybody else tried this route? It's interesting and really cheap, although this particular scanner seems to be quite flimsy and not truly trustful.

Thanks,
