More DetailsVello NSD-35 Overview
Quick Film Digitization Aid
Convert old 35mm film strips and slides to digital copies using your existing digital camera and macro lens. The Vello NDS-35 works with most Nikon, Canon, and Sony cameras along with select macro lenses. Instead of buying a whole scanner, just use your full-frame camera and capture a 1:1 digital reproduction that lasts forever.
LED Light
A bright and dimmable LED light source provides the illumination the camera needs to capture all the details of the 35mm film being photographed. The light also acts as a stand-alone negative viewer with a kickstand so it can be set up on a flat surface, making it easy to scrutinize each slide. The cool-running LED light operates with any 5W USB power supply, available separately. A diffusion panel is also included if using an alternate light source is desired.
USB-A to Micro-B Power Control Cable
The power control cable offers tactile buttons that make it easy to adjust the light's brightness, so you don't have to take your eye off the camera while changing settings.
Film Strip and Mounted-Slide Carriers
A film strip carrier secures 35mm film strips up to six frames long, and a slide carrier holds two mounted slides at a time, making it easy to move from one slide to the next without damaging the film. Quickly shoot and move to the next picture in one session.
Macro Lens Adapters
Six lens adapters make it easy to mount the digitizer onto a macro lens. Choose between 46, 49, 52, 55, 58, 62, and 67mm lens adapters to match a variety of lenses for macro shooting.
Focus Extensions
Getting film negatives in focus is the priority when shooting a digital copy. Use a combination of the included extensions to lengthen or shorten the focus distance, so every image is sharp.
LED Light Connectors
A pair of connectors allow the LED light panel to easily attach to the film strip holder, holding it at the perfect distance for even illumination. The modular set can then be disassembled for compact storage.

Best Digitizer

I was looking for an easy way to digitize old negatives and slides. This is the bet set up for me. It comes with a negative holder and a slide holder that's held in place with a back up LED light. The results a great when using a macro lens and the adapters included. I recommend this!

love this product, it's easy to use and did the job. The light is ok, but you can easily use your flash if you want, just don't put the light and use your flash. While the digitizer is mounted on you lens, the shake blur is not a point. Now have to use it for a long shoot to be sure it will go all the ride :-)

Does this fit the Sony 90mm macro lens?
The Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer comes with a 62mm filter adapter that fits the Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS Lens. Technically it should work but it has not been tested with that lens and Sony cameras.

I have a Canon M2 R6 with 24mm Macro lens and a 24-240mm lens. Would either lens work with this?
Would this product work better with the rf 80mm Macro lens (not as much cropping as the 24mm macro)?

I have a Sony A7RVI and Sigma 105 f/2.8 Macro lens, will this work?
We were able to test the Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer with the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens and the lens does focus with the provided 62mm lens adaptor provided in the kit.

Do the tubes have enough length to allow use of a DX (crop sensor) camera Nikon D500 with 105 macro lens at 1:1?
The Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer will focus using a Nikon D500 and a full-frame 105mm macro lens. It will crop the image, and that might not work for some.

Will this work with an old F mount manual focus Micro-NIKKOR 55mm f/2.8 lens?
The Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer includes a 52mm lens adapter so it will screw onto the Nikon Micro-NIKKOR 55mm f/2.8 Lens. There are several extension tubes in the box that you can use to get the film to be at minimum focusing distance so it should work with that lens, but we have not tested with that lens before therefore cannot guarantee that it will work.

would it work with the Nikon Z Macro 105mm lens?
Yes, the Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer is compatible with the Nikon NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S Macro Lens when using the included 62mm Lens Adapter.

Does the slide holder only accommodate 24X36mm images? Has anyone tried a different holder for larger frames like Super 127?
The Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer, BH #VENSD35, only holds standard 35mm film strips and mounted slides. We do not have a different-sized film holder for the Vello NSD-35 35mm Negative and Slide Digitizer.
