Basic 4x5 Sheet Film Scanning Kit for 4x5 Film Scanning
Basic 4x5 Sheet Film Scanning Kit for 4x5 Film Scanning
MPN - B45KITANR / B45KITAC
Scanning 4x5 inch sheet film has always been time consuming with flatbed scanners and very expensive with drum scanning options. Our Basic 4x5 Sheet Film Scanning Kit brings accessibility to the thousands of 4x5 Light Source Basic customers who need a cost effective and high quality method to scan their film without the need of our Pro Mount MK2.
Not only can you scan 4x5 film with this kit but you can also scan those pesky short strips (2-3 frames of 35mm or 1-2 frames of 120 film) by creating your own mask to fit within this holder.
