The Project
Having recently purchased a Taxiphote
viewer, I was soon thinking how I might view my own slides in this
wonderful machine. Having tried to adapt my Realist format
slides for the viewer, it occurred to me that it would be more
interesting to try producing slides in the format intended for
this viewer, In my case 107mm x 44mm. This way, I could view
images taken with a digital camera, cropped to suit.
I was now faced with finding the most
suitable media and printer combination for making the slides and a
means of mounting these to match the handling properties of the
original glass slides. In doing this, I considered the
following:
Media - Inkjet printable films, both
transparent and opaque.
Printer - Inkjet print resolution and
printing profile.
Software - Image alignment,
manipulation, printing template.
Mounting - Glass, card and plastic
alternatives.
