The Single Channel Variable Height MF Film Holder For Canon 8800F 8600F

The Variable Height MF Film Holderä for

Canon^® 8800F Plus 9000F I and II Series Scanners

The optimum film suspension height for your particular scanner unit may actually vary from the standard approximate .7 mm suspension height provided by your current holder. A variable height holder allows you to compensate for this difference!

Allows you to easily scan 120/220 film frames!

Designed to work with the:

Canon^® 9000F I and II
Canon^® 8800F

Advantages compared to the OEM Canon^® holder :

Includes the high-quality glass ANR Insert!
- Makes it easy to load film
- Provides consistent focus by flattening film that arches or curls upward
- Better flatness control for standard and panoramic film formats
  - Helps maintain flatness with your film even if the film is cut to odd lengths because the anti-Newton Ring glass insert prevents film from arching or curling upward.
  - Works well with film strips that contain just one frame
- Utilizes high quality acid-etched anti-Newton Ring glass
  - Etched surface does not haze or rub off like the cheap coated anti-glare glass sold at frame shops
Variable film suspension height
- Allows you to raise the film suspension height further off the glass and thus can decrease likelihood of Newton Rings. Testing indicated Canon^® scanners have a wider depth of field compared to Epson^® scanners, thus the film height was often able to be raised slightly without a noticeable affect on sharpness.
- Enables you to adjust for sharper scans from your scanner if your scanner's true optimum suspension height varies from the standard suspension height of the Canon^® film holder. It is like adding a focus adjustment function to your scanner.
- Adjustable by any increment up to about 3 mm (more range is possible via a simple user-friendly modification)
Sturdy and Durable construction that is professionally computer cut using highly accurate laser technology
- Solid construction – heavy 3.0 mm+ total thickness
- Most surfaces have lower reflectivity compared to the OEM Canon^® holder in order to minimize problems caused by stray light and reflections
- Handsome matte finish on upper side

Film Formats:

Accepts 120 and 220 films that meet the ANSI width standards

Scan up to 4 “645” frames, 3 “6x6”, 2 “6x7” or 2 “6x9” frames at once. Depending on the size of the gap between film frames, some 6x6 and 6x7 users may be able to shift the film in the holder in order to then scan an additional frame per strip.
The film scanning aperture/hole can scan 220 mm per pass from a strip and the film channel can accept a film strip up to 250 mm in total length

Full Frame Scanning:

Users can self-modify the film holder to allow for "full frame" scanning. This is a modification users complete themselves but a similar example can be found at the bottom of the webpage found here.
