In Mark’s neverending fall down the rabbit hole of scanning negative film, we wanted to update you on where he stands.

After using Fotocare’s Fotoscan system for a few years, they finally told him to get his own.

This video is what Mark has scrambled together over the past 3 months and I am sure we will have some future upgrades to come.

Special Thanks to:
Fotocare, Kaiser Fototechnik, and Sigma Lenses for your support.
