I ordered the ES-2, and then waited seven months for one to arrive in stock. Does it do the job of copying negatives? Yes. I have digitized over 500 negatives so far, using the Nikon D850 with the 60mm f/2.8 Nikkor lens. It is pretty easy to use the device. The negatives are held flat, and using the tap-focus-shoot with the D850 touch screen gives excellent sharpness at f/8. But I have thousands of negatives to run through the unit. Will the plastic construction of the ES-2 last? I hope so.

Backordered, I purchased directly from Nikon. The price seems high, but it's a lot less expensive and faster to use than a film scanner. It works and I've put lots of film through it, but for the price, it would have been good to have metal threads at least. Use it with the Nikon 60mm micro. I have a 55 and was not able to adjust focus well enough to use it. I tried it initially on its side and got very unsharp results. Then I attached the camera to a copy stand and I was able to focus more reliably. Be careful what kind of light source you use below or you can get flickering or off color. I had to test for the right exposure. What looks good to your eye or the camera might not be the best exposure when you open that image in PS and need to reverse the tones for a positive print (cmd/i on mac). So try several shots maybe 1/2 stop apart bracketing a few stops to either side and then try opening in PS before committing to a manual exposure setting to shoot all of your collection at. You only want to have to do this once, right? I do not recommend autoexposure, unless your negatives are very unevenly exposed and/or developed. I used a blower to remove dust or a Staticmaster brush. Trust me, you do not want to have to spot out the dust later on in PS. Read full review

Flimsy pieces of plastic for $200. But if you need it basically the choice is either buy it or some DIY.
