Re: Using EOS-M to copy slides/negatives

Great to see people getting good results with the Canon macro lens. I will have to try it and see how it compares with my setup. I have a 4x5 leafscanner and I am using the 75mm APO-Rodagon enlarging lens from it with a bellows and getting really good results, just as good as with the dedicated scanner and also as good as a high end Nikon Coolscan that I tried.

I thought I'd mention the APO-Rodagon (may not have it spelled correctly) because some people are getting rid of their Leafscanners and if you look around, you might pick up the lens for a great price.

Also wanted to mention that this software is reputed to be the best for color negatives. I don't own it myself but only heard good things.
