Book Holder
Camera stands and lighting
units can solve almost all problems
when capturing, digitizing
or copying originals. But if the original
itself is „reluctant“, if the photo album refuses to stay open or if the
old wavy photograph needs to
be flattened or the press clipping
should not shift, then the little (or bigger) helpers presented here, are of
great importance.
The 5901 Copy Plate is a reliable tool
for locating originals in a certian position.
The 5903 Document Holder does
a similar job for smaller originals and
allows the possibility to position the original at any desired angle towards the camera.
Especially when copying opened
books or albums you have to fight the
stubborness of the inanimate.
Normally an open book will not lie flat
and each page bends differently. In
these cases a book cradle is very helpful, but often expensive.
The Kaiser Book Holder is a simple but efficient solution to this problem:
A solid baseplate is covered with a non-slip coating. Preformed foam elements of varying thickness are arranged in such a manner that the opened book is compensated, yet a gap is left down the middle for the book spine. A folding glass plate with hinges located in vertical slots exerts the necessary pressure to keep the page that is to be copied in a flat position. Moreover, part of the pressure is absorbed by the foam elements under the book so that even fragile books are treated with the utmost care.
The RLR Camera Arm (see page 83) should be used for page-by-page copying because the camera can always be positioned precisely over the corresponding page without having to move the book for each shot.
