Thank you so much for the feedback, I appreciate it a lot! Actually, as I had already filmed the majority of this video, Valoi came out with the news that there will be an easy120 in the future! They are currently still working on it but it will come out sooner or later which is awesome for people who shoot a lot of medium format but still want the ease of the easy35.

May I say that this video was very well presented with a cool look and that included the Presenter. Well done. Only thing for me is, I have an Epson V850 and it pretty much does everything, albeit a bit clunkily with 35mm. If I only shot 35mm, it is as you say a no-brainer. When are the going to bring out an Easy-MF???

Karin, does this work with CUT negatives? I have thousands of three frame strips to scan, and some single or two frame strips, too.

Vielen Dank! I was one of the first users of the Valoi 35. I completely forgot how easy it is to use. It is in a dust free bag, with the tubed and macro lens attached. For fresh negatives, I only have to check the battery, which lasts long. Hook it up to the camera in seconds and I am ready to go. The quality of the scans depends entirely on the lens and camera. In case I forget, I have gloves in the bag that holds the Valoi. Perfect.

I started my film scanning with an iPad as light and stacked books to hold the film while I shot them with my iPhone. Since 90% of my film shooting is on 35mm I got the easy35 right after it went on sale on Kamerastore + a 120 holder and light for the times I shoot medium (no tripod, I just bend forwards). I’ve been using a Nikkor 55mm 2.8 AIS and it’s a blast.

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

Hi! I am not sure if I understand the question correctly. You won’t get far without a macro lens for scanning. A non-macro lens simply won’t get you close enough to the negative to be able to cover the entire frame. You can get extension tubes to make a regular lens into a „wannabe macro lens“, but in my experience the image quality is not the greatest and corner sharpness is usually really bad with a solution like that. So: get a proper macro lens for scanning, there really is no good way around it.

In my workflow, dust and scratch removal usually is a very time consuming part. So I am more than happy to let the scanner / silver fast do the job. My scanner takes a whole roll on itself, so I do not have to waste time feeding it shot by shot.

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

Good that you have found a solution for you! :) With the Epson it's not like I did not had to do any dust removal at all, so I still had to invest that time. So in the end, for me the time post processing is almost identical for flatbed and camera scanning and then I will rather save some time in the scanning process itself. ☺️

I thought about getting the Easy 35 but ended up opting to get the 360 setup instead because I'm planning on going to medium format in the near future. While I love Valoi products, the only downside of the 3D printed parts is that (in my experience) they tend to "stick" as the friction of the plastic can be fiddly. However, that's nothing some light filing didn't fix quickly. The plastic overall is pretty quality. Great video, though, and I'm glad Valoi is getting in front of more people!

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

I totally get that decision, sounds like it makes a lot of sense in your situation! That's also the reason why I rather wanted to try out the 360 over the easy35 in the beginning. But for me currently I probably shoot 80% 35mm film and only 20% medium or large format. So if I could only pick one, with that ratio I would probably still go for the easy35 and scan the other formats with my flatbed if I had to. The easy120 they plan to bring out will also be an interesting product for people who shoot multiple formats.

Well made and very interesting comprehensive video ! I love the Easy35 Setup ! For a fresh developed 36 picture film, there is nothing better out there and I could not wish anything better. The only downside , at least for me, in my opinion is when you scan cut parts of the film ( normally 6 picture parts ), the first and the last picture is most ob the time unsharp at the very end, because the very first and very last part is not fully plain when shooting the photo. So best is to use the fresh developed film, and "scan" all pictures and keep in mind if you scan them afterwards, it could happen that the outer pictures are maybe not perfectly sharp. In terms of equipment, I use a 50mm Sony FE Makro lens for Sony A7 and the related single parts of the available extension tubes and then leave it as it is. If I want to scan film, I just need to adapt the lens to the camera and I can start with scanning. This lens is cheap and I have no issues with manual focus and it speeds up the process even more.

@KarinMajoka

Thanks so much for your comment, cool to hear you enjoy your easy35 as well! :) That's interesting, I did not have the same problem luckily (yet). In fact I even think I had less issues with out of focus frames or curly ends with the easy35 in comparison to other film holders because of the S-kurve of the holder that applies some tension to the film. But I agree that it's always best to scan before cutting for the fastest and most pleasing results! :)

i hope there's one for 120 coming soon!

Have you compared your scans with a professional scan from for example a Frontier? I love the idea to do the scans myself but i am afraid i am spoiled by those (very expensive) professional scans.

The Epson scans look terrible in comparison to a lab scan. But the camera scans actually come pretty close! Also, the resolution from camera scanning is usually even a bit bigger than the small or medium sized scans from the lab (at least the standard Frontier scans I got from most labs).

Haha, scanning time is KZread watching time! Valoi is currently working on an easy120 which will probably be super exciting. :)

I have been through all types of home scanning film. I was always against scanning at the lab. All that until 4 years ago when I opened up a developing lab and bought a Noritsu hs1800 It is an amazing machine. I could never reach the same quality results and the reliability of this scanner with home made setups. AND I can tell you this: if nobody will scan at the lab because everyone scans at home, that local lab shop will not be self sufficient with Dev only. So it will either develop only every now and then to keep costs down, which will deteriorate the developing solutions and you will get worse quality, or it will drive the price of developing a roll much higher. PS: when trying out scanning gear, always compare the results to a professional lab scan.

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

Having a Noritsu accessible at all times is truly a dream ;) there are enough people who are not interested in home scanning at all who will still use labs. In fact I sometimes still send my film to a lab in case I don’t have any time for self developing and scanning but need the film fast. Yes, adding a lab scan to the comparison would have indeed been interesting. But even lab scans differ a lot depending on the lab, scanner and setting used so probably I would still need to add several lab scans from frontier, Noritsu, flextight…

You reminded me that I have a Valoi Easy 35 at the darkroom ... which is actually a lot easier for cut strips. Perfect for the large amount of cut strips a customer just dropped off to scan. 😎

Don't throw away your flatbed scanner! I think it's still the best option for scanning medium format film on a budget. The film format is a lot bigger than the sensor format, so a lot of information is lost by camera scanning. For 35mm film, camera scanning is the better solution, but it's a bit of a struggle to find a good set-up. I always had problems with the film holders, so maybe I will give the easy35 system a try!

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

True, I still sometimes scan with the flatbed because I actually like the results I get from it with 120 film. Especially when scanning several formats (645, 66) it’s easier to scan with the flatbed than change up the setup for camera scanning according to the negative size.

Great video… The kit is too expensive!

The Easy35 looks the best because of its higher resolution. The Epson would do much better if they could increase their resolution from 4K to 8K.

Hi Karin! First of all, I'm a heretic and I need to confess - I don't shoot analog. That however do not prevent me from enjoying your videos, and I was a bit surprised by how much softer the results from your Epson scanner were. That got me thinking since I've done some scanning in my line of work using an Epson V800. I'm not familiar with the film holder you're using with your Epson (probably as flimsy as the standard one provided with the V800 - I hardly even dare sneezing around it for fear of it breaking in half...), but do you know if your holder can be adjusted? I know the ones I've been using can be adjusted slightly if you suspect that the scan sharpness isn't optimal, but perhaps you've already thought of this. If not, it could be worth checking out. Having said that the Easy35 seems like quite a nifty little gadget and if you're only scanning analog film it seems like a much more handy option than a bulky scanner taking up desk space.

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

Thank you so much for tuning into the video besides not shooting film anymore - I appreciate it a lot! :) I have the Epson V500 which is a rather old model and there is no way to shift focus plane or adjust the position of the holders. And I don't think the issue is a focusing issue with the epson but in fact just a resolution issue. In comparison to the camera scans the Epson just looks somewhat compressed (I have tried with various setting and various software so that's not the issue either). It's just older technology I guess.

I usually send out my film to develop and scan. I don't shoot much film so having the dev and scan together has not been a big deal. However, I see the ROI of this setup pay off quickly (within 6-8 months maybe). I just would need to decide which digital camera to use.

@KarinMajoka

Ай бұрын

I totally get that, not everybody is interested in self development and scanning. But as you say, depending on how much you shoot a home scanning setup like this might pay off in the long run actually :)

Couple tips on the scanning of the film. Firstly, it looks like you are on the older version of NLP. The newest one is a lot better and has their new Roll Analysis feature which helps gives better conversions over a whole roll. The conversion algorithm is also improved a lot so you will see better results. As per NLP's instructions, you should be setting up your camera setting so that the pure white light (no film in the holder yet) is just about clipping in the camera. This way, when you insert the film, your white point will be close to clipping but not enough so it actually does and this brings the most detail out of the film. Leave all the camera settings the exact same for the whole roll so you get consistent conversions especially if you use Roll Analysis. I noticed a huge difference when rescanning my stuff. I used to expose at 0 or -1 like you did but when I started to follow the NLP instructions, the results were way better than what I had been doing previously. When in lightroom, you can just set the white balance on the first image and then sync that setting to the rest of the photos. Again, this helps keeps things consistent during conversion. For setting up your camera before scanning, I have found it pretty quick just using a bubble level in the hotshoe to get my camera flat. I haven't tried the mirror method so that could be faster/easier but just an idea. The bubble levels are super cheap so that could be worth trying.

@c.augustin

Ай бұрын

So I don't hallucinate, and NLP3 actually gives better results than NLP2. The mirror method is more precise than using a bubble level, I use it all the time (not so easy to get a small, perfectly flat mirror nowadays, I use a decades old one). I set my camera to -3 on the light source, this way highlights (shadows in the negative) never clip.

The main issue with every single film scanner is the flatness. How flat does it hold the negative and how much warping is caused as the light source heats up the negative. This is the last remaining issue with DSLR/ Camera scanning, and really the only reason the absolute pickiest scanners still go with anti newton glass and more forgiving/ custom masks and C-stands.

But for camera scanning it's not necessary to use the best of the best digital cameras - Kyle McDougall actually made an interesting video showing results from a cheap (less than 150€) camera for scanning and they were surprisingly good. Also, a macro lens does not have to be as expensive either, I got mine for 70€.

I agree, I also don’t like film scanning. My favorite way to waste time by scanning films is using a tripod and a really sharp macro lens. I use negative lab pro 3.0, but the 50$ for the upgrade doesn’t worth it. The version 2.4 is definitely good enough.

Sicherlich ein durchdachtes und solides Produkt. Aber revolutionär ist das Ganze nicht. Schon in Analogzeiten hatten wir Dia-Duplikatoren. Für Nikon-User gibt es den ES-2. Und es ist schon ein stolzer Preis für ein Gerät aus dem 3D-Drucker - vor allem, wenn man erst noch ein 1:1 Makroobjektiv kaufen muss. Von JJC gibt es ein sehr ähnliches Produkt für knapp 80,- inkl. der Extension-Tubes, Lichtquelle etc. Was mich hier stört ist der nicht wechselbare Akku. Wenn der in ein paar Jahren schlappmacht, ist das Ganze ein Fall für den Sondermüll.

That's a fairly expensive setup, especially for a 3d printed product. If you want to get the same result and convenience, buy a vintage slide/negative duplicator, these are usually sold for 10-20$ and a ulanzi vl49 light source will be more than enough for 35mm. And for the scanning situation where the stray light is causing issues, get a CPL filter, it'll cut down a lot of these weird reflections that falls on the negative.
