Good info to know.
Thanks Richard
Alan, thanks for that link. In the overall scale of things , that is really not a bad price.
Wilderness, thanks for the thoughts and idea. Most likely when I order the scanner I will get the...
Ahhh! The Bell, I think I saw that someplace before. I own a small machine shop so I may be able to make a glass 5x7 carrier with a bit o’ luck.
Thank you Pere.
Cheers Richard
Chester, thanks for chiming in! I’m hoping I can get the resolution to print at least to 24” on the short, 5” side of the neg. Sure hope so.
Pere, you wrote, “...as the LR lens is focused on the...
Hey Folks,
Been toying with the idea of getting one of these scanners for 5x7 film. I understand that the claimed scan resolution for these scanners are 6200 or 6400 ppl but I understand that this...
Great thread....thanks too all

Thanks...Even mine that I posted here years ago are missing...Oh well know I know more than ever why we should shoot more film.
Thanks and cheers, Richard
Hi Hope you folks can solve the problem. Title says it all. The text displays just fine, but no photos, not even an empty square. Help!
Cheers Richard
Pere, thanks for that simple appearing test.
Cheers Richard
Roger that!
Dreamy looking photographs with your lens Mr. Tran, sort of an Orten look. Nice!
Cheers Richard
I’ll give it a try Eric...I sure won’t throw it away.
Thanks and cheers,Richard
Hi Folks,
I found a bag of Xtol, actually two bags A&B that mix together to make five liters. I think I bought it around 2010 along with some Rapid fix. Do you think it may still be good. I most...
Great! Thanks Peter.
Cheers, Richard
Thanks for that link Peter. I could not find the length and width dimensions though. How do you find the distribution of light across the panel?
Cheers Richard
PS, Peter, where can I find the...
i Have not read the entire thread, so please excuse me if it has been previously mentioned. What about using a Wacom Tablet with a diffuser made from translucent white plexiglass over the screen of...

Joel....Just beautiful.

Thanks for the kind words Sascha. It was an easy target...No lugging camera gear, truck was 10 feet from my tripod location. If you, or anyone gets the oppurtunity to do a "swamp walk" with Clyde...

Thank you for all the informative replies. I'm off tomorrow for a trip west to, hopefully, do a lot of photography.
Thanky.

Ian,
Thank you for your informative reply. I never doubted Bruces ability. He has, as you, some lovely images and knows his way, according to his website, about scanning, but a more in depth...
You missed, or maybe not, the point regarding the debacle with Perrier a number of years ago. And from experience, getting things through the FDA approval process is more how facts and paper work is...
This is Azteks MSDS on their mounting fluid.

Just because a household "chemical" is bottled in a container to clean toilet bowls does not mean you can't use that same chemical to brush your teeth, if that same "chemical" happens to be a major...
Hi Shilesh,
Please tell us more. What, if you do, mix it with? In what proportion?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks for the input.
Regards, Richard
I recall reading somewhere that some brand/s of scanning fluid is 10% mineral oil and 90% Naptha. I have used light mineral oil in the past but it is a pain to clean. Used mild dishwashing detergent,...
Preston,

Ken, Thanks again for the tips I worked on the clouds and details some more.

Hi,

Hi Ken,
Thank you for the critique. I darkened the top of the sky abit along with the darkening of the foreground trees. I think views better. I enjoy your work and appriciate your ideas and...

I like the ratio of the 5x7. I really need to shoot more 5x7 and help keep film in the supply chain. This was shot with my Shen Hao 5x7 it is a bit on the heavy side that is why I'm looking for a 5x7...
Hi John,
Great photos..I hope to get over to your gallery soon.

Hi,
After reading the above posts a thoght came to me, (they are rarely occuring phenomina though). I wonder if one could scan in, say, 48 bit color positive then read the RGB values and somehow use...
