I got this Vello 35mm & 120 Film Digitizer for Smartphones from B&H. It is a lot faster than the old flatbed scanner I used for a long time, and I think it produces scans that are just as good as I got from the flatbed.
I used this outfit recently when I wanted to rescan and rework some old pinhole images. I thought some previous scans made by just hand holding the iPhone 14 were not bad, but the Vello's film holders and the device's vertical and horizontal adjustability makes the process easier and more precise.
I used GIMP for photo editing of these pictures. It has most of the same tools as Photoshop and it is free to downlaod. There are apps which allow image adjustments on the iPhone, but I am more comfortable just importing the negatives to the photo editor and doing the inversion to positive and other adjustments there.
