So I am trying to shoot some film I have here rather than scanning it and am just curious if anyone's ever used the ES-1 to shoot negatives before.

What's the best way to keep the film flat, short of mounting it in slides? Any suggestions? Thought about trying something like this - not sure it would fit into the ES-1's slide area, though.

Some good resources on the 'net. Here's an example:

The poor man's version of the Nikon PB4 bellows and its PS4 slide copier attachment, and perhaps the PB5/PB6 versions as well.
