Can I get close enough to take a picture of a 35mm negative on a light table? My lights are bright enough, I just need to get real close and be clear.

I'm a dentist and when patients come to me with analog xrays, I take pictures of all even the small ones for the digital record .I use a Sony N50 for that. The small dental xray is like a 35mm film but I can not get too close so I have to croop all the images.I just recived your cuestion so I did the exercise with the Olimpus SP 800 UZ and I can tell you it works.Even better because I can litteraly TOUCH the film when is on the xray viewer when I use the Super zoom function.Feel free to write again if you need more help and excuse my english.Richard Lenis D.D.S.

Yes, you can view the slides easily, no problem. I did not find my 35mm negatives until recently and did not think to view them. I am not sure if it would be possible. My negatives are in one long strip and I think I could view them. Ginnie W

It is best for viewing 35mm slides. I've never tried it to view negatives. This device illustrates the old adage "you get what you pay for".

Ditto to J. Kim, photos always look good on the tiny (well compared with an LCD monitor of course) screen, you can at least ZOOM in on the photos to check out the noise factor, check it against what ISO the shot was taken in. Under the law of physics, there is really no way a 1/1.7" sensor can produce images that are on par or better than an APS-C sensor. Although they may look close. Thanks Grandpa Bill, for your comment. With that said, I almost laughed out loud when someone told me he could take a picture from the 8-megapixel iPhone just as good as a DSLR ! !!! LOL! I am still laughing ! ; ) Ditto to J.

Greetings!I suppose it's a low budget film. Unless you have good illumination, I don't recommend it under low light environments. The Lo-Light mode has a bad performance.Also remember this is not a professional camera. Good luck in your project, hope I can watch it when released.

thank you for the question actually I returned it back as it didnt match my requirements using it in big room, regarding resolution and illumination (lumins units) wish to help you more :)

In that kind of environment, where you're standing in the dark but the kids on stage are lit, it performs very well. In fact, we had a concert at my church a couple weeks ago and I shot in those precise conditions... and the pictures turned out great! Oh... don't be afraid to bump your ISO, even up to 3200, and you should be fine. ヅ

I have found that you can shoot at/or below 1/125th and be just fine. You can see some examples of my ring light work on Facebook. -Jeremy Hammons Photography-

it depends on what f-stop your lens goes down to, the lower the number the "faster" or better the lens will take in light in dark situations such as night photos. Also recommend shooting solely from a tripod using a remote or wireless trigger, that might be your "crisp picture" issue.

No, just 35mm slides. For large negatives I use a light box and just take a photo and then reverse the image and adjust exposure.

I use these studio lights exclusively for close-up photography. Anything you can put on a table and take pictures from 1 to 2 feet away. The quality of your pictures will depend upon the camera used. Mine takes three exposures then combines them into one. I also use the camera on a tripod because shutter speeds tend to be slow. I have upgraded to 60-watt flurescent bulbs for more light. These bulbs are a little too large for the reflectors but they work ok.

Very feasible, the image shows up pretty clearly from behind, so I think you would be able to do it with a strong enough projector. Ours is a little under 1500 lumens to give you an idea.

Why not? This camera is great at night shots...excellent in low light. We just got back from Tahiti with 500 or so wonderful pictures.

It cannot easily scan 35 mm slides, which should be back-lit. You can rig it up, though, as I have. Lay the slide on the platen, put a sheet of white paper over it, then shine a lamp above it. This provides back-lighting that will work. It works for negative strips, too.

I found that it took better pictures in bright light or outside. Low indoor light provided the most challenges, when trying to get a good shot. I found the closer I was to the subject, the better the picture. There are modes you can use on the camera to compensate and enable you to get a good indoor photo. Good luck.

You can be from infinite up to 30cm distance from your object. Less than 30cm, the image will be blurred. Hope it helps you.

I did some experimenting. After dark, the ceiling lights and lamps were off in the living room. So the only light was coming from the television. I took several photos, without the flash and they look great!
