Thank you very much, Tina.

The lightbox and improvised holder (I cut the top out of a plastic table to
hold the Kodak slide illuminator.)

The whole rig.  That's my X-E2 & 50mm f/3.5 Micro-Nikkor on the enlarger
stand.  I can copy negatives & transparencies from 3x4 cm to 5"x7",
sandwiched between two pieces of glass to keep them flat.  I shoot RAW,
convert to DNG, import into Bridge,  invert the negs in PhotoShop, and save
as TIFFS.  I don't use plug-ins or layers, just basic PS and Bridge tools.
