I have an Epson V800 (remaindered by Park when the 850 came out), which I find a hassle.
Thought I'd spend half an hour building a proper rig to see if I can speed it up and get better results.
Bought a MiniSun LightPad for £35. Made a transport from some foamboard stolen from my son and some masking tape, to keep negs nice and flat.
Lens is the Leica R 60mm/f2.8 macro at f5.6 and camera at ISO250 1/45th on 2s delay.
Tripod is a 3 Legged Thing with the middle bit reversed.
Took the first negative at hand, 30 years old, tone curves inverted in LR6.
Easy easy and pleased.
