Christopher Campbell built a copy stand to photograph flat works of art up to 54 inches long. The camera arm locks securely in place and is counterweighted. A grid of aluminum extrusions supports the flat copy board. Four flash units provide even lighting across the copy board. Using a high megapixel Sony camera, macro lens, and focus peaking, Campbell can precisely focus and see dust in paintings. He achieves the most accurate color using custom camera profiles built with an X-Rite color checker chart.
