Can you take some photos of your K3 "scanner" setup? I'd like to try this at some point!
I should have taken a photo the other day when I had it all set up, now that I have two DSLRs. I have some ideas for improvements but this is a question of finding the time to build the necessary equipment.
Basically, I take a photo of the negative using my K3 with DA 35mm limited macro lens. The negative is in a Lomography Digitaliza to keep it flat and the Digitaliza goes into a cut-up shoebox to keep it vertical. The K3 is on a tripod (obviously) and on the other side of the negative is a remotely fired flash pointing straight at the negative and camera, and several layers of translucent plastic to act as a diffuser.
