And my final and current project was to fix this issue I had with scanning films. And then I focused on automatically watering my tomato plants for the times I went on a hike. This did NOT take very long! I first fixed my UniRoller developer issue, which was a result of using a JOBO expert tank 3010. I admit, only a month ago, I couldn’t tell the difference between an Arduino and a Raspberry Pi.Īfter randomly settling down on an Arduino, mostly because of its price point, I needed to find a problem to solve. Taking up this project has thought me so many things. Lastly, I also really wanted to program a microcontroller for the first time.
I also like the idea of slightly jolting the DIY community toward this niche domain. I enjoy supporting the film community and film centric companies like Negative Supply, Lomography, and Negative Lab Pro. Having said that, my reasons for why I decided to make this project is more multifaceted. Moreover, I was not completely enjoying the grains I was getting. This was very nice as it enabled me to scan my own films, but the speed wasn’t there. Before, I was operating the venerable epson V600 for scanning films. I happen to own their products, and I happen to like using them (for now). Right off the bat, I should say that I am not affiliated to Negative Supply, Capture One nor Negative Lab Pro. Luckily, any DIY film carrier made out from cardboard that is able to push and pull an uncut 135 format (35mm) film via a simple shaft system will work great. Luckily companies such as Negative Supply started to make these much needed film carriers. Among the 3, I would imagine the most scarce item is the film carrier. Until today!Ī typical digital camera scanning setup includes a digital camera, a tripod (or a copy stand) and a film carrier.

However, the software to automate this process so far did not exist. So fastening the scanning process using a camera makes more sense than ever before. Tools available today, such as Negative Lab Pro, make it easy to achieve great colour negative conversions. This process and the subsequent colour precorrection can take anywhere from an hour to two. Waiting whilst flatbed scanners scan a colour negative film is nothing to be excited about.
Getting started with Arduino Nano and Python is easy thanks to extensive online documentation and an increasing DIY culture.
