Homemade Dia scanner using the Sony

Share

One member of the Xitek Forum made this construction to scan his old Dia photos. There are some advantages and disadvantages compared to using a classic EPSON970 scanner:

  • The center resolution is much higher on the Sony images.
  • The edge resolution is better on the Epson
  • The scanning speed with the Sony is about 10x faster compared to the Epson
  • Post production is much easier with the Sony images than on the dated Epson software+
  • Colors are much more vivid on the Sony scanned images.

Personal note: I do have a ton of FF and MF negative and diag images. Would love to find a setup that makes it easy for me to digitalize the images…any idea?
