Light tables

gtjonathan · Dec 9, 2012

Can anyone recommend one that is still available? I'd be using it to view 6x4.5 slides in conjunction with a magnifier. Neutral colour temperature is my primary concern - I intend to use the illuminated slides as reference when post processing the scanned images.

What better forum to ask

Thanks.

I made my own light box as a poor high school kid. Just a wooden box, plexiglass, two 14" fluorescent fixtures, and cool white (4100K) tubes. It's not hard to make and cost about 1/4 the price of a commercial box.

But then again, maybe that's not professional enough...Anyway, consider making one or getting a box instead of a table. They're portable and should work fine for your needs.
