: How to make a film cell show up in a picture????? : beckham1 January 21, 2006, 01:23:14 PM What is the best or what methods have people had success with to show the images on the film cells for FC's. I have about 70 filmcards and need to sell some of them and would like to show the cell.
Well I thought (am almost sure this has been discussed before) but couldn't find much with the search index. I did see one topic in which someone had used their computer screen as a background with a digital camera (tried it didn't work that well), tried using my scanner (looked crappy), well any other suggestions would be much appreciated. I wondered if cutting a small square in a piece of cardboard and holding it in front of a light with the film cell would help? Thanks for your help in advance! : Re: How to make a film cell show up in a picture????? : Sharon January 22, 2006, 01:21:15 AM I seem to remember someone posting that they used a small light box behind the card and then took a picture of just the cells. I would imagine they used the sort you get for showing slides on, but a white childs night light would probably work as well.

I've had to position the cells RIGHT over the light though - takes a few tries. Even then the cells aren't always crystal clear, but it's better than I can get with a digital camera.
