I’ve just finished a new batch of rail systems for camera scanning and I have a few additional ones available. These are among the very best tools for camera scanning slides and negatives with a DSLR. You can use just about any camera and macro lens. Faster, better, cheaper than a conventional scanner.
I have 5 rails and four light kits currently available. Here is the order page.
More info is in my book, Digitizing Your Photos.
The rails are $400-490 depending on stage and rail length. light kits are $200.
After making 50 or more of these, I’ve finally gotten it down to an assembly-line workflow, best done with at least five units at a time.
Drill press time! I’ve created a jig here so that I can properly place the access hole in the cover plate repeatably.
