Which camera gives the best results?

More megapixels, more detail

The scanner never limits resolution: your camera sets it. A full frame camera at 1:1 fills the sensor with a 35mm frame, so a 45 MP body gives you roughly a 45 MP scan. For medium format, a larger sensor such as the Fujifilm GFX100 II, which we use in development, captures more of each frame's detail.

Designed and tested on real film by photographers who shoot it every week.
