After too many years of photography, I’m committed to digital. Problem is…all those color negs neatly (mostly) filedTake them to a photofinisher and have them scanned and put onto a cdrom for you.
away. I have a need to reprint some of them and would like to do it digitally… (Lordy, you have no idea how I swore
that this would never happen)…and really don’t want to invest kilobucks in a slide scanner,
I do have a Nikon PB-4 bellows with the PB-6 slide-copying adapter. Have never used the adapter…only the bellows for
extreme close-up work some years ago.
Seems to me I can simply "photograph" those old negs and achieve essentially "camera resolution" of the original negs.
Of course, the optical resolution limits will be there but I wonder if they won’t be less than a pre-packed (so to
speak) scanner.
Any ideas?
Thanks
