This post is a bit outside the realm of "found photos."

Sometimes a flatbed scanner won't work (like in the case of curved sterieoview cards) when digitizing a collection of photographs. So, this is my cobbled-together copy stand. The DSLR isn't the newest, but I think it does pretty well.

This photo is actually my great-grandfather taking a selfie. He was an avid amateur photographer and I'm lucky enough to have inherited hundreds of his photographs (though sadly they were not paired with any negatives). Probably taken in Chicago around 1915.

These test targets from Vlad are fantastic!

Good to know you’re getting corner to corner sharpness.

Scanning update complete!

Small issue with vibrations and focusing is a bit of a pain. Also a good bit of light gets lost from the bellows. Getting much slower shutter speeds than I’m used to. However, excellent results so far.

- Sony A7R IV
- Nikon PB-4 Bellows
- Rodenstock Apo-Rodagon D 2X 75mm/4.5

If constantly refocusing continues to be an issue I’ll simply go back to a Sigma 70mm DG Macro, which I used on the Nikon D800e.
