Hi Jennifer
I believe it is suitable for glass negatives as well.
If you'd like more information, the contact in the UK is Tony Bhalla at DTEK. His email is [log in to unmask]

Hi Chris,
This system looks great, do you know if it is compatible for glass negative digitisation?

Given Matt's suggestion, it might be worth having a look at the attached.

Hi Claire,
Sounds like an interesting project. I would be looking at using a camera and lightbox setup. A lot quicker and potentially safer than using a scanner.
Happy to discuss offline.
Matt

Subject: Silvering on photographs
Dear all
We’re starting to plan for a future project to digitise a large number of photographs that were taken at the turn of the 19th/20th century. A fair few of these are unfortunately affected by silvering (confined to the edges on some but there are others where it has spread across a lot of the photo). So, we wanted to canvass any ideas/experiences/suggestions on the best way to photograph or light these, or any pitfalls that you can point out and help us to avoid.
Many thanks in anticipation of any help or advice you can give.
