  • Turns your smartphone into a scanning light source: The adapter holds your phone. The white display serves as an even backlight for digitizing your negatives. The affordable alternative to expensive scanning lights like the CSLite.
  • Fits directly on our 35mm Film Scanner: The recess on the top holds the Ausgeknipst 35mm film holder with a snug fit: adapter, phone and holder become a complete, wobble-free scanning station.
  • Fits almost any smartphone up to 7 inches: The inner dimensions of 17 × 8,5 cm accommodate practically any current phone, from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy to Google Pixel.
  • Evenly bright for free: With the free app "White Screen" from the Play Store, your display becomes a clean, dimmable light surface. You don't need any further accessories.
  • Matte black and low-reflection finish: Made of engineering plastic. The matte surface prevents stray light when photographing your film. Made in Würzburg.

Description

This adapter turns your smartphone into an even transmitted light source for digitizing film. The affordable alternative to dedicated scanning lights such as the CSLite. You place your phone in the adapter, switch on a white surface using the free app "White Screen" and insert our 35mm film holder into the precisely fitting cutout on top. With a second camera or phone, you then photograph the film cleanly and evenly lit.

The matte black surface keeps reflections out of the image, and the inner dimensions of 17 × 8,5 cm fit almost any smartphone up to 7 inches. If you want to get started with the complete setup right away, go for the Basic Set: adapter and 35mm film holder together.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the difference between the variants? "Adapter only" is the smartphone adapter on its own. The "Basic Set" additionally includes our 35mm film holder, which fits into the cutout on top. The complete scanning station.
  • Do I need a specific app? The free app "White Screen" from the Play Store works perfectly (even, dimmable). Any white full-screen image on the display works just as well.
