Title: scanner based cameras
Post by: EricWHiss on July 16, 2009, 10:31:13 pm

Been reading a lot about home brew scanner cameras - and the professional scan backs like the betterlight and powerphase fx.  I think it would be fun to take a large flatbed scanner and large format camera and play around.  Seems like lots of people have done just that and used foam core and other simple stuff with great results.   Just curious if anyone here has built their own or has any experience to share?    


Thanks,
Eric
