This is it. This is literally everything I can offer and everything you need (apart from a camera and a tripod). 

You'll get:

  • Free shipping
  • The Lobster Holder (duh)
  • CS-Lite scanning light
  • CS-Lite adapter
  • 35mm inserts (don't forget to pick which version you want)
  • Scanning hood + 50mm and 30mm extensions

 

CS-Lite is an excellent little and powerful light with 95 CRI. It is powered through a humble USB. Learn more here.

This whole kit is honestly a joy to use. Powerful light, flat negative, satisfying click everytime you push the button on the holder, no stray light anywhere. I found myself rescanning old negatives just so that I can use this kit.

 

What is The Lobster Holder

A film holder for DSLR scanning that holds the film perfectly flat AND allows for smooth and fast scanning.

Feel the strength of a lobster claw! You get the holder for 120 films, that has been hand-made (i.e. I started the 3D printer), assembled and tested by me.

Properties:

  • Good for every 120 format up to 6x9.
  • Super fast operation, you can scan a roll under one minute
  • Holds film perfectly flat during scanning.
  • Clamps down the film by the power of the Sun two neodymium magnets.
  • Release the film by pushing the (only) button.
  • Does not scratch the film as it returns to its natural curl when you release is, so only the edges actually touch the holder.
  • 3D printed with high-quality PLA

The holder comes assembled and tested. The only thing you will need to do is to screw in the legs. And take it out of the packaging. Not necessarily in this order.
