Dear All,
This is at least photographic!
Does anyone have experience scanning glass plate negatives? Can it
even be done? A friend asked me to make contact prints from some
glass negs he bought at an estate sale. Since my darkroom hasn't been
reassembled after the big move, I thought scanning

I have already made some scans from my face a few inches away and it worked

Scanners focus is optimized on the outer surface of the scanner's glass, placing
the emulsion side face down may make a difference in the results (or not!).
