![]() ![]() There are plenty of cheaper scanners that can get through rolls of negatives very quickly, or more expensive ones that will take longer, but reward you with a high-quality file, resolving every point of grain.Ī regular flatbed scanner, on the other hand, is more general-purpose, and can be useful if you've got boxes of old slides or prints that you want to revitalise and bring into life. Film scanners are designed specifically for handling negatives, which is always what you should be scanning from if possible. ![]() Plastic allows one to tape and untape and it lasts longer than a paper one from an old shoebox.In this guide, we're going to be looking at two main types of scanner: dedicated film scanners, and general flatbed scanners. Then make the outside cuts so the adapter is 2x2". You can just make an adapter with a 1/16" thick piece of scrap plastic and an x acto knife. ie the 110 was shot with a lower tier camera with a single element lens. I have scanned some 110 stuff that a 2700 dpi film scanner was overkill and a flatbed worked just fine. ![]() But one might as well just at 4000 dpi if your scanner is this anyway. Scanning at 4000 dpi may or may not help with most 110 stuff since much was not so hot. If the image was shot with a Rolleie A110 then one had a vastly better lens. ![]() If your 110 is just a simple instamatic image 4000 dpi probably is an overkill. I think the 110 slide is something like 40mm square. Or one can cut out a square in an old 2x2 slide frame and make it be the same as the smaller 110 size square. I mention this long saga because you can place a tiny 110 slide back into one of these discarded 2x2" frames and then tape it and then project or scan it. (2) Mrs petite 110 slide projector "popped out" the inner slide at the score marks and used these tiny slides in her tiny 110 projector. (1)) Mr 2x2 projector used the slide as is This scheme allowed the lab to mount all the 110 slides one way. This mount had score marks so one could "pop out" the smalller 110 slide frame out of the larger 2x2" square frame. Some of the later non Kodak processed 110 slides I got processed in the 1970's and 1980's came in a DUAL MOUNT PLASTIC slide mount. ![]()
