Hello,
I'm wondering if someone might have some advice for scanning glass plate negatives. I'm wary of the glass-on-glass contact, so how can this be done effectively without scratches either to the scanner glass or the plates? Thought of mylar between but am concerned about the "moire"(sp?) effect.
Also, I imagine that for quality reasons the emulsion should go down due to the thickness of the glass.
Any advice here is greatly appreciated!
