Greetings Captain Solo
I have access to some 35mm star wars reels and want to make test scanning of them, i do not have access to expensive scanning equipment .
I wonder if anyone has tried converting one of these to scan 35mm film, i mean considering the speed at which a phone takes photos; it might be viable to prepare some tests. I have the S4 which has an outstanding camera.

Hey this looks actually interesting, I wonder what's the quality of the scan
If it was high, team -1 wouldn't spend so much money on their equipment. :)

Surely its dependent on the camerphone :P
I'm getting myself one for christmas. I have about 2-3 minutes of sw on 35mm that I want to scan. I have a galaxy s2+ and a program that can take png's. If it works I'll post some shots.
Luke threw twice…maybe.
I'm not an expert, but I guess if this device would have a D65 light and the camera would be locked to a correct white point, maybe something good could come out of it. They don't state anything about the light though so I doubt it's something accurate.
davros, get in touch with team negative1, they would probably scan (or at least test scan) your print.

poita has a high quality 35mm scanner so it would probably be even better to contact him.

Sounds good! What film ? Please post any examples
And in response Feallan . Yeah i did a couple of years back , its owned by a friend in London, but we are hesitant as we are concerned about the legality of it.
Well, that complicates things, poita lives in Australia, and team negative1 in USA. :(
Also, is it a complete print? What's its condition?

I have sent prints to and from London and the rest of the UK, it isn't a problem, but there is a preferred way to do it.
I've sent you a PM :)

Oh, and don't waste your money on the firebox, it really is awful, you could spend that money in better ways to get your print scanned. Drop me a PM.

It is Star Wars on Eastman I think. I will definitely post some pictures when I get it. What type of film is yours printed on, if you don't mind me asking?
