Scanning Film with the Panasonic G1

After doing a budget film scanning build last year, I was curious to see if I could do it for even less by purchasing the cheapest digital mirrorless camera I could find. I wanted to know if you could still get good results even with very old and affordable tech. The results surprised me!

He bought the Panasonic Lumix G1 for $29 only. Cool that you an still use it for something useful like this!
