something something man ray
something something technicalities
proof of concept
featuring my hand seen thru my arsat n 50mm lens, "mounted" to the scanner via a toilet paper roll i've cut to about the flange focal distance of f mount (the focus was missed but for how small it is in frame it matters little)
my experiment over last few uh. weeks? or is it days? time is slippery right now with the uh. the uh. Home Problem. anyway the experiment is really simple i've just been mostly shooting at iso 12,800 and squishing and stretching the dynamic range in post to bring out grain. i think it's something.

@(: (i answered this in a dm, putting this here for anyone else reading) the lens was shot wide open @f/2 and i still had to shine a bright light on my hand to get it to show up so, at least in a dim-but-not-dark room, overexposure is not a worry
oh wow that's incredible, i can see the rayograph inspiration but this is so uniquely digital; i didn't expect this would work at all, scanning with an open lid.. i don't think i've ever seen it. how much did you have to close the lenses for this to work?
