Hi Friend: What setup are you using to scan with your GFX 100S? I use a Nikon Coolscan 8000 which I recently had CLA'd. I hesitated to attempt to camera scan my negs as getting the camera film plane perfectly aligned with the film holder target was a daunting thought. That, plus when I wanted to use the camera, I would have to disassemble the setup, then set it up again to scan. I like the above image very much.
I use a Pentax macro bellows with a 50mm macro lens and a full frame pentax (K-1ii) to scan 35mm. it works quite well and I can scan a 36 exposure roll in about 20 minutes.Thanks for the info. Wonder how using an old fashioned slide copier like the “Nikon F Slide Copier” would do? Nice condition ones for sale on eBay for around $30 -$40.
It's worth seeing twice!SORRY for the double post.....

A real stunning image! If it were me I'd crop off the lower section of the image with the dark wall. It distracts more than it adds if I may say so. But that's just my own personal preference, and we're not in the 'image review' section of this forum, right?Louvre Museum, Paris, France

Thanks Jaap !! This is the question I had before posting, you are right. I just kept the bottom of the image (with the wall) because of the statue which was looking at the others at the upper stage. But maybe I was wrong, and a crop is always possible !!A real stunning image! If it were me I'd crop off the lower section of the image with the dark wall.
