Basic 4×5 Sheet Film Scanning Kit for 4×5 Film Scanning
Scanning 4×5 inch sheet film has always been time consuming with flatbed scanners and very expensive with drum scanning options. Our Basic 4×5 Sheet Film Scanning Kit brings accessibility to the thousands of 4×5 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 4×5 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.
