probably WAY over simplifying this because I don't have a grasp of the
optics involved, but wouldn't it be possible to get a good image of
individual pages on a microfiche by using a DSLR with the right lens and a
CNC X/Y table made from one of the large (8x10) LED illuminators used to
treat SAD? The lights are pretty bright and are under $50. The X/Y table
build would be very simple and cheap to build. The only "real" expense
would be the right lens on the camera.
Yep. That is what I was thinking originally. I wasn't against the idea of
projecting the slide to a surface then capturing that.
I wasn't thinking about projecting it, I was referring to direct imaging
using a macro(?) lens on the camera.
