Slit-Scan SLR

Here's the Slit-Scan camera.. I've sourced a nice aluminium PCB box for the speed controller. The controller indicates % power level which translates linearly to film speeds of approx 15mm sec (30%) to 100mm/sec (100%). The speed can be regulated without wasting film by disconnecting the lower cables. I've modified the camera internals to make the mirror be 'normally up' and added a push button to bring it down for focusing/composition, as soon as the button is released the mirror springs back out of the way. The camera shutter material has been used to construct the slit (0.5mm width). For more info see here. Website | Blog | Twitter | Facebook
