Negative Supply Basic Film Carrier 35 MK2 Stabilising Mask

The Negative Supply Basic Film Carrier 35 MK2 Stabilising Mask is a dedicated accessory designed to securely mount your Basic Film Carrier 35 MK2 onto a compatible light source. It improves stability during scanning while blocking unwanted light from below, helping to produce cleaner, higher contrast results.

System Compatibility Notes

This stabilising mask is designed specifically for use with the Negative Supply Basic Film Carrier 35 MK2. It allows the carrier to be mounted directly onto the 4x5 Light Source Basic, 4x5 Light Source Basic MK2, 4x5 Light Source Pro, and Light Source Mini. It forms a key part of a complete scanning setup, ensuring proper alignment between the carrier and light source while reducing stray light during the scanning process.

Why We Like It

This is one of those small accessories that makes a big difference to day-to-day use. Without it, the carrier can feel less secure and more prone to slight movement when advancing film. By locking everything into place and masking light from below, it helps maintain consistency across a roll and improves overall scan quality. It is simple, effective, and really completes the Basic Film Carrier 35 MK2 setup.

Samuel ★★★★★

After struggling with film curl for months, the locking mechanism on this mask finally holds my 35mm strips perfectly flat during scanning. No more fighting with tape or glass weight.

Brian ★★★★★

Finally, a carrier that keeps the film perfectly flat across the whole frame—the stabilizing mask really locks it down without any wobble. I’m getting noticeably sharper scans with less time spent fighting dust and Newton rings. A simple upgrade that makes a real difference.

Henry ★★★★★

Scanned a full roll of 36 exposures and not a single frame shifted out of place—the mask locks the film down firmly every time. The fit on the carrier is snug but slides in easily, which is exactly what you want when you're trying to move fast during a session.
