Film Scanning with a Cheap Old Digital Camera — A Budget Build

How little can you spend on a camera scanning setup to digitise your film, and still get good results? After making multiple videos about my personal GFX setup that I use to scan my film photos, I wanted to put together a much cheaper kit and see how it performed. I was definitely impressed by the results. Also, in partnership with Valoi, we'll be giving this entire kit away—you can find out how to enter in the video.
