Negative Supply Light Source Mini 97 CRI
The Negative Supply Light Source Mini 97 CRI is a compact, ultra-bright LED light source designed for scanning 35mm and medium format film with a digital camera. Despite its small size, it delivers exceptional brightness, excellent light uniformity, and strong colour accuracy, making it a powerful and practical option for both home and professional workflows.
System Compatibility Notes
This light source is designed to integrate with the Negative Supply modular system and works with a wide range of film carriers using the appropriate stabilising masks or adapter plates. It is fully compatible with accessories designed for the 4x5 Light Source Basic, including the Basic and Pro Film Carrier ranges. It supports scanning formats up to 6x9 medium format. For optimal coverage when scanning 120 film, a longer macro lens of around 60mm or greater (full frame equivalent) is recommended.
Why We Like It
This is one of the most versatile light sources in the range. It is significantly brighter than the older Basic models, which makes a noticeable difference when working quickly or trying to keep ISO low for the best possible image quality. The colour accuracy is also very strong, and in real-world use it performs very similarly to higher-end options. Its compact size makes it ideal for smaller setups or for anyone who needs something portable, without giving up performance. If you mainly scan 35mm and 120, this is a very well balanced choice.
