As of publishing this, I want to make it clear that this method works for me and so far I like my results. I don’t care if it doesn’t follow [ insert RU-vidr/Photographer name here ] or follow the rules of the manual, these results will either make you happy or not. At the end of the day, these are your photos. You can do whatever you want with them. If you found this video helpful, please drop a comment below or leave a like!

I like your boldness. Cheers

You wouldn’t happen to know the thickness of the glass. Anyway you could sandwich the negative between two pieces of glass to get the 3.5mm off the bed glass.

@Socman86 4 года назад

Yo can you do a tutorial on getting good film boarders when scanning? Like step by step how to do it? Everyone just says “hit this button and now you’re done” not that easy with the v600

@russellrabanal 4 года назад

I was going to forward you to my video that I created awhile back, but you found it. There’s really no trick to it. In that video, I show my settings and basically click and drag the marquee tool over the image. Whether you’re using silverfast or Epson Scan, it does the same thing. - Most people will say the same but that’s basically it. Click and drag. The only time you can’t get the film borders is if you use the tray that comes with the V600. The tray blocks the borders from even showing up in your scans. May I ask, what you’re getting when you click and drag? At this point, I’m thinking some settings might have been changed. You’re going out of bounds with the borders. Or there is something wrong with your V600.

@koltinsullivan 4 года назад

I'm swinging by to pick up glass from Scan Tech - glad to have found this! Good to see it's eliminating newton rings. I see people using other brands and somehow still getting rings- perhaps they are using it incorrectly.

@russellrabanal 4 года назад

Let me give you a quick update. I still scan my photos on the glass and I'd get newton rings on my photos here and there. So using ANR doesn't prevent Newton rings 100%. Maybe lifting the glass a few mm off the flatbed glass would work but not always when it's flat on the glass.

@sednasix6608 3 года назад

Beautiful results! Thank you for this video. I've been scanning through a camera + LOMO digitaliza, but that process can be exhausting - and film bending can still be a problem, so parts of an image can be out of focus. Pulling the trigger on an Epson and the ANR glass option seems to be the best investment of money into scanning.

@russellrabanal 3 года назад

Thank you so much I appreciate it! I was actually thinking about buying the digializa and scanning it with the Epson. Keep in mind though, when you scan ANR straight on the glass, you are likely to get newton rings. Rings that might be noticeable. If you are just uploading photos on a platform like Instagram, it goes unnoticed. Thanks again!

Hey man, on which side of the glass did you tape your film to? The matte side, right?

@russellrabanal 2 года назад

When you scan your negative it’s the “shiny side” that needs to be face down on the flatbed.

@irrigationjoehenggeler2863 4 года назад

Hi Russell. I'm archiving the slides and negatives (sizes from Kodak 110 [the one w the the very small negative] up to 120) that my Dad & Mom took of our family as we grew up for myself & my three brothers by scanning them on an Epson V850 Pro. After seeing this video on ANR Glass I plan to get some of the ANR glass plates. I have a couple of questions. First, can you have several ANR glass plates on the scanner bed at the same time? Second, does it work on slides? Thirdly, does scanning prints (both color & B&W) with ANR glass on top improve results? I ask this because a number of old b&w prints I have from my Dad are ones he took doing WW2, and these are basically contact sheet prints. Thanks a lot --you are doing a great job!

@russellrabanal 4 года назад

Hi Joe, with the Epson V600, I can only place one ANR glass over one 120 negative or one 35mm negative over the glass. The one I bought works specifically on 120 negatives with or without the tray. After using it for 3 months, yes, it does improve results if you zoom into scans and look into details. Using ANR from my experience, it improved in sharpness on details and contrast. --- You did mention about scanning prints, ANR glass was designed for negatives. And for slide film, I can't speak for that since I've never shot any but I believe it would work the same. I've never shot 110 as well, but they will fit under the ANR glass since it's smaller than 35mm film. Lastly, my method of scanning is not something that Epson put in their instruction manuals, but using ANR glass does bring improvements. Again, these improvements can be seen if you zoom in otherwise you can't really tell. Hope this works for you and let me know if you have any other questions.

if you choose to scan your 35mm negative flat on the glass, yes. if your 35mm negatives are always flat, then its not needed.

Hi. I wonder how did you placed the negatives on the scanner. Is it above the ANR glass and you used tape to flatten the negatives? Or you placed the ANR glass above the negatives? Thanks for this wonderful video.

ANR above the negative on the flatbed glass. No tape used. You can also check my other video on how to scan with film borders. It shows how I place my film on the scanner. Cheers!

@joeltunnah 3 года назад

You’re getting newton rings because you’re putting the film directly on the scanner glass. That’s why the holders that came with your scanner raise the film a few mm off the glass. Sandwiching the film between two pieces of anr glass might work also.

@lebxwski 3 года назад

Hey dude! Great video. I got some ANR glass a while back but I seem to be having issues where I’m still getting NR. I put the film on the flat bed and then the ANR glass ontop so the film is sandwiched. Is that right? I’ve tried it the other way where the film is on top but then because of the focus point of the scanner the shots come out a bit soft. I’ve tired both the lenses on my V850 but they still come out soft. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@russellrabanal 3 года назад

Yeah, I pretty much sandwich my negative with the ANR glass. If you watch my other videos, I still get great results with it even though I get newton rings here and there. I hear people saying to use Loctite's sticky tacks that way it's not flat on the scanner's bed. Or just Lomo's Digitiliza.
