Wet mounting for camera scans

Not sure if you want these two items to be connected, but they are by laws of physics.

Anti-Newton glass is slightly frosted to prevent Newton’s rings and this frosting can show - depending on how the scanning kit resolves and where it is focused to.

The AN surface of the glass should point to the non-emulsion side of the film and should be closer to the backlight than to the camera for best AN and least diffusion effects.

Layering for best effect and least side-effect

  1. lens

  2. emulsion side of film
    non-emulsion side of film

  3. AN side of glass
    non-AN side of glass

  4. diffusor

  5. backlight
