Scanning with a digital camera

Leica R7, Summicron 50, Fuji C200 expired 2015, Nikon Z7 scan, negativelabpro.com conversion

Full image and 1:1 crop (foreground on the beach)



 
Here are some scans of reasoanbly good slides using my XT-2 on a Durst slide copier and a Komuranon-E 75mm/5.6 enlarging lens. Full frame is 6000x4000, and in most I came pretty close. I think I cropped the Kodachrome 25 images a little.


(nice color in this first generation Fuji slide film from 1976)

Ektachrome 100 (most of these slides are in very poor condition, 1978)

Here is some of what I have copied so far: https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=157638541@N07&view_all=1&text=slide

I have tried isopropyl alcohol on some of the worst ones, and it looks it might help. I t may be a week or so, but get some improved ones up (amongst other things I need to buy some replacement slide frames).
 
1977 shot, Nikon F2, prime lens, Kodachrome 64.

Camera-scan on my modified Carousel projector, Sony A7, APO Rodagon D 1x lens. Below at screen res (1400 wide). The full 24MPx file should produce a good large print. See the "Carousel" thread for a link to the full res file.

I would love to see a comparison of that image vs. one scanned using any of the common film scanners.

Sure. Sony A7 camera-scan vs. Nikon CoolScan V (with VueScan). First, looking at a large area, colors are a little different, could certainly be adjusted to match. Both scans have been adjusted for WB on the same grey rocks in the image.
