I am scanning 35 mm to 5 x 7.
Can I acheive Epson V800 like results using a Nikon D500 or D5600 without stiching with a good Macro lens?
Thanks.

I have been using an Epson V800 for a short while now.
A debate I am having in my head is whether you can acheive comparable results using a camera ranging from a crop sensor to a full frame...
I have scanned 5 x 7 negaties directily on the bed of the scanner with AN glass to hold it down. Results-okay. I didn't notice any newtown rights.
What is appealing about wet scanning to me, is...
Why? Is that based on something you have experienced?
SM
Thanks. Good alternative.
Still looks like mineral spirits to me.

I wonder if this fellow's method would work.

Greetings,
I would like to scan 5 x 7 inch b&w negatives and 120 color negatives on V800 using wet mount method. Will purchase a Epson wet mount assessory.
Kami by Aztek is a name you hear...
The dslr scanners are impressive but I don't think I could built one in ten year.
Thanks.
Smorton
Peter, is there a lot of set up time with a dslr? I assume if I google it I would get a lot of results.
I have a Sony a6000. I wonder if that would be sufficient.
Thanks
Smorton
Thanks for the response. That is the same thing I noticed but due to lack of knowledge, I assumed I had missed scanners in the intermediate range.

Question may be a complete waste of time but I am curious about flatbed or any other type of photo scanner that is superior to the Epson V850 or Epson V800 which in just incrementally higher in cost....
Serge,
This has been interesting. I also have been putting 5 x 7 negatives and 2.25 negatives directly on the glass with good results.
Smorton
Thanks. Great attitude!!
SM
What do you use for shims, Jim?
Thanks
Smorton
Thank you very much.
Smorton
I didn't see this post until now. Good idea. Can you recommend a place for sleeves and in particular 5 x 5 inch?
Thank you.
SM
I have many 5 x 7 inch black and white negatives to scan and I don't know if Silverfast would help there. I am actually having fairly good luck with Epson and Vuescan. I did scan in several 35 mm...
Many thanks

You gained a little in terms of harsh winters.
Happy Scanning.
Smorton
Randy,
I don't know if you still live in Minnesota but the winters are getting to be way too much.
Smorton
Thanks Jim:
I live in Minnesota, where Grouchy Old Men was filmed. Also the movie Fargo. Yes, we actually talk like that.
What I am doing now is scanning in the 5 x 7's and getting generally...
I am not mad. I am sorry. I got off on the wrong foot here. I would like to apologize to all.
The remarks about my inexperience are right on. I sadly discovered that today after bragging about...
My experience so far:
1. SilverFast's ISRD is much better then Epson's Digital Ice when scanning 35 mm color slides. ISRD may work on black and white, Digital Ice does not. This is based on...
That does help.
Thanks.
Smorton
Thanks for the response. One thing is that I only have the 5 x 7 black and white negatives for a short period of time. I have to learn on the fly. They are very valuable to me and I want the best...
This is probably a very premature question but I thought I would ask anyway.
I received my Epson V800 a few days ago. As you know, it comes with Epson scanning software and SilverFast 8 SE. When...
The Epson V800 arrived and I have been getting very good scans (in my humble opinion) simply by placing the negative on the glass and using the film area with 5 x 7 inch negatives. Interesting that...
Thanks for response. Epson states in user manual that you can't save a jpeg, tiff, etc when scanning on the film bed portion at 4800 ppi.
3200 ppi gives a big file and plenty of detail.

Greeting,
Epson V800 arrived. Scanned in a 5 x 7 negative. No newton rings. Tried to save at 4800 ppi in a tiff. I got a sign that I need to save in another format but it doesn't tell which...
Greetings:
Is there a big difference between Anti Newton glass vs Anti-glare glass vs Antif reflective glass vs museum glass in terms of avoiding newton rings when scanning with flatbed scanner.
...
Thank you Kenneth.
By the way, you have a very nice website which and I am enjoying some of your articles. Your scans look great.
Smorton
Many thanks. I seem to be a little obsessed with this considering the scanner has not even arrived yet.
I will try without the betterscan holders. Regarding 2.25 negatives, it does appear that...
Dr Tang:
Thank you. I have heard the 120 film holder isn't good on the Epson v800. Everyone seems to complaint in the reviews area.
It does not come with anti newton glass for 5 x 7 is my...
I actually just ordered the Epson v800 and it will be here Friday.
I read how BetterScans.com holders work and I have concerns about the dry mounting. I have a 5 x 7 in negative and if I tape it...
Thanks.

One more question: I can get anti glare glass from a local glass shop for almost free. I asssume this is not the same at anti newton glass, correct?
Thanks
Smorton
Thanks. I will try it.
Smorton
What a scan!!! djdister, do you the AN glass?
Thanks
