Thread: Left or right DDS inserion?

    Re: Left or right DDS inserion?

    When I rotate my back for portrait orientation I use that 5x4 film from England instead of the usual 4x5 film I use.
    Now should have the dark slide pointing up or down?

    Actually that's a most important question - especially if you have a fettish about the image appearing right side up or upside down with respect to the film notches !
    I know just enough to be dangerous !

    It depends on whether the shot is N+ or N-.

    If you get images that are upside down you have one last chance when scanning or printing to get it right again.

    But with transparencies you must hold the projector upside down.

    If you believe you can, or you believe you can't... you're right.

    Is all of this just the opposite way south of the equator, say, in Australia?

    There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!

    Images made Down Under are rightside up, but the people working with them are upside down.
