Tho I’m new to film scanning, I’ve been thinking about this for several years and now, I testing with what I have so far. I have Godox SL200II continuous light and it’s extremely powerful and have CRI 95. The setting was ISO 100, F11, 1/1000 at max power tho I can lower the brightness. Just for a testing purpose. The color tempt is fixed at 5600K.
I dont have a macro lens yet so I just tested with a standard zoom lens. I double diffused with a white acrylic panel and diffusing sock on a reflector. You might see some vignetting around the image but that’s because of the size of the reflector and it was enough to fit 4x5 sheet tho I would get a wide reflector for 4x5. I shot it with Sony a9ii and the shot was not proper but the quality was so great on 6x7 films.
For now, I only need to add a tripod Horizontal Panoramic Tripod Center Column from Leofoto and film holders for proper testing tho the setup is still in question as the head may not be leveled and sensitive to vibration and movement which is the most challenging part to solve unless I can make a frame to put the light inside as a small table.
Thoughts and concerns for possible issues?
