Apologies if this isn't the right area for this post. Had as earch but can't find anything other than the macro set ups.

Does anyone know where i can get hold of a lightbox? The type you use for looking at negatives. Not the boxy kind that you place an object in and photograph.

If anyone understands what i mean, i'd love to hear from you.

Thanks in advance guys!!!!

Try searching "Light Table" instead of "Light Box"

De Nada...

BTW, B&H happens to also carry light boxes intended for use in medical applications for reading X-Rays. They may be bigger than most meant strictly for photography purposes. Can't swear to the qualit of light, however.

I have a light box. It was actually a light box for X-rays. Like the ones that used to be in the Dr. exam room. Both of my parents worked in radiology, so when it was time to remodel.....JACKPOT. I still have it around somewhere. It is 16X20 I think.
