[SYD] Could I borrow a film scanner?

Postby surenj on Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:03 am

Dear all,

I have some APS film from the good ol days that I was keen to scan. Does any one have a scanner I could borrow (maybe for a weekend).

There is no urgency as the film has been sitting there for several years (since 2003).

Give me potentially a week or 2 months (don't ask), and I will hopefully have possession of an Epson V700. Not sure if this will easily scan the APS format.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

I'm not sure about APS on the V700, I dont recall a scanning mask for APS but you never know
