I was happy that I caught that moment. If I remember correctly, she took off the tambourine after I got off only one frame. I copy old prints on a Polaroid MP4 copy stand with four 150 watt floodlights, at 45 degrees, as you guessed, and use the old compensator-type Micro-Nikkor, so the exposure is the same no matter the magnification. For digitizing 2-1/4 or larger negatives, I use a Leitz light box from the 1960's.
