As a tip in copying, we suggest you use a 50mm standard lens or, better still if you have it, an 80mm enlarger lens using an adaptor or bellows unit. If a film user, make sure you use a slow one. Film like Ilford PanF, Fuji Reala or Velvia and a self-adhesive spirit level, to get parallels correct, is a useful additional accessory to consider.
