In my previous\u00a0effort to scan APS film using my DSLR\u00a0<\/a>I broke the film container and removed the film, which it turns out is entirely unnecessary.\u00a0 You can easily open an exposed roll of APS film by turning the small shaft near the opening and then turn the central shaft until the film leader comes out.<\/p>\n

The Lens on the Elph\u00a0Jr. is a 26mm f2.8 with 4 elements in 4 groups.\u00a0 That 26mm on APS equates to 32.5mm on 35mm film which sits nicely between my two favourite focal lengths 28mm and 35mm (Yes I know 31.5 is actually the mean number between 28-35 don’t get all statistical on me).\u00a0\u00a0 The shutter goes from 2sec\u00a0to 1\/800 sec a versatile range of speeds although I don’t know what other apertures are available in cobination with them beyond the wide open f2.8.<\/p>\n

Well now that it is sorted and the film is scanned lets see what this little thing can do.\u00a0 The blue rectangles are an artifact of the conversion process I did when converting them from negative to positive.<\/p>\n
