Film Scanner MK2 — The Modular Scanner System

Our 5-layer system for DSLR/DSLM film scanning: Copy Stand, light source, adapter, film holder, and lens hood — modularly combinable for Minox, 110, 35mm, and medium format.

1

Copy Stand — Stable Base

The copy stand forms the foundation: 100% parallel alignment to the film plane, height-adjustable and vibration-free. Compatible with all common cameras.

Light Source — CineStill CS-LITE

The entire film holder system is designed for the illuminated area of the CineStill CS-LITE (95 × 150 mm). High color rendering index (CRI 95+) for accurate colors.

Tip: Why CS-LITE?

  • CRI 95+: Color temperature calibrated, ideal for negatives and slides
  • Precisely fitting illuminated area: The 120 film holder fits directly, all others via adapter plates
  • Included in Pro and Full sets — or available separately

Adapter Plates — Light Seal

The adapter plates form the interface between CS-LITE and the film holder. They prevent stray light from below from affecting the macro lens.

Which Adapter for Which Format?

  • Adapter Plate Mini: For Minox 8×11 and 110 pocket film
  • Adapter Plate 35: For all 35mm film holders (Standard, Pano, Half Frame, Sprocket)
  • 120 Medium Format: No adapter needed — the 120 film holder (95×150mm) fits directly on the CS-LITE

Film Holder — The Heart of the System

The film holder consists of a base plate and a magnetic top plate. The S-curve guide ensures perfect film flatness, and the magnets allow for quick film changes — even with short film strips.

Modular Design

Each base plate is format-specific. The magnetic top plates are interchangeable — so you can scan different sub-formats with one base (e.g., 6×6, 6×4.5, 6×7, 6×9 on the 120 base).

Magnetic Top Plates — Format Extensions

Easy to swap

Each Top Plate snaps in magnetically. To change formats, simply lift off the Top Plate and place another on — no tools, no screws.

Sprocket = Separate Set

The 35mm Sprocket Set has a wider Base Plate than the standard 35mm set. The Sprocket Top Plate does not fit the standard 35mm base — and vice versa. Both sets use the same Geli (Hood M) and the same Adapter Plate 35.

Lens Hoods — Stray Light Protection

The Gelis block stray light from above and reflections on the film surface. Slid into the Top Plate via a rail system — holds securely, can be removed in seconds.


Set Variants Compared

Each format comes in three variants. The Pro variant includes everything for an immediate start with the CS-LITE, the Full variant adds the Copy Stand.
