There are two ways to scan
transparent film.
• By using the 8" x 10" Glass Film
Holder, which is used to scan
non-standard-sized transparent
film.
• By using the Main Staging
Template, which is used
together with the individual
templates to scan a particular
type of standard-sized
transparent film, such as
individual 35mm slides, 35mm
filmstrips, 6 x 9 cm film, or
4" x 5" film.
