Negative Supply exists to create tools for film photographers who want to spend more time photographing and less time scanning. Their products allow you to digitize negatives using your digital camera and a macro lens in just a few minutes.

The Negative Supply Basic Riser MK3 is the direct replacement for the Basic Riser MK2, offering added height, rigidity, and a more solid steel baseboard to provide a more stable, rigid scanning workflow. The head is similar to the one found on the Pro Riser MK3 with a secure mounting system that uses a t-handle to snug the camera down. A window on the side of the head gives easy access to the 1/4-20 mounting point and a locking screw on the back of the head to keep it at the set height. The silver anodized column quickly attaches to the black powder coated, solid steel base with stainless steel hardware.

Designed to support nearly all popular camera and macro lens combinations, from compact mirrorless cameras all the way to most digital medium format cameras, the Basic Riser MK3 is a supremely capable copy stand. With a maximum riser height of 23in, it s capable of scanning 4x5 with up to ~70mm full frame equivalent focal lengths, 120 film with over 100mm full frame equivalent focal lengths and 35mm film with nearly any macro lens.

Stella T. ★★★★★

The dial and adjustable column make swapping between 35mm and 120 feel effortless, even with my clumsiest hands. I’ve been scanning a whole roll without needing to re-level the setup once, which is exactly the kind of steadiness I was hoping for.

Benjamin ★★★★★

The height adjustment locks in place with a satisfying click, which makes switching between film holders feel almost effortless. My scan workflow is noticeably faster now that I don't have to fiddle with makeshift setups, and the whole thing feels solid enough for daily use.

Emma T. ★★★★★

The locking mechanism is rock solid and the whole thing feels machined, not stamped. Got my camera setup balanced on the first try, which never happens. Scanning my negs is finally a setup-and-go ritual instead of a frustrating wrestling match.
