The MF Film Holderä

Your Solution for Better Flatbed Scanning of Medium Format Film Strips

Allows you to easily scan a whole strip of 120/220 film frames at one time!

“Just wanted to let you know that I've used your film holder and it

works great.  Great value for the money!  Epson^®  should be buying them

from you and including one in with their 3200 Scanner.”

-          John R., Hanover, Pennsylvania, USA

"Wow...  What a difference."

- Daniel E., Lexington, MA, USA

"Received your film holder a few weeks ago and could not be more pleased.  Both

 the construction and results are 1st class... Bottom Line?...It works as advertised."

- Capt. Richard M., Marathon, FL, USA

Advantages:

• Designed to work with the:
  • Epson^® 2450
  • Epson^® 3200
  • Epson^® 3170 (see notes about use with the 3170 here)
  • Epson^® 4180 (see notes about use with the 4180 here)
  • Epson^® 4490
  • Epson^® 4870 (See photo-i for an excellent review of this scanner)
  • Epson^® 4990 (See photo-i for an excellent review of this scanner)
  • Epson^® V500
  • Possibly others -  The scanner will need a large light lid and to work well with a holder that holds the negative right at 1 mm off the scanner’s glass.  You must confirm your scanner compatibility with me before you purchase if it is not a 2450, 3200, 3170, 4180, 4490, 4870, 4990 or V500.  If you own an Epson^® 1680, you will want to buy one of the variable height holders (either single channel or dual channel).

• Now includes the high-quality ANR Insert!
  • Makes it easy to load film
  • Provides consistent focus by flatting film that arches or curls upward
  • Utilizes high quality acid-etched anti-Newton Ring glass from Europe
    • Etched surface does not haze or rub off like the cheap coated anti-glare glass sold at frame shops
  • T-locks may still be ordered as an option (option offered on ordering form)
• Allows you to work faster, more efficiently and safely with your medium format film
  • Adjusts to accept “645”, “6x6”, “6x7”, “6x9” film
  • Scan up to 4 “645” frames, 3 “6x6”, 2 “6x7” or 2 “6x9” frames at once.  Depending on the size of the gap between frames, some 6x7 users may be able to shift the film in the holder in order to then scan a third frame per strip.
  • The film scanning aperture/hole can scan 202 mm per pass from a strip and the film channel can accept a film strip up to 240 mm in total length
  • Be more efficient doing other tasks while the scanner is scanning multiple images without needing your intervention!
  • Makes batch scanning an easy option for medium format film with the standard EpsonScan software as well as Silverfast Ai and VueScan software
  • Minimizes the need to reposition your film, therefore less handling of your film means less chance of damage from fingerprints, dropping your film on a dirty surface, etc.
• Infinitely variable scanning length
  • Accepts “645”, “6x6”, “6x7”, “6x9” film and any film length up to 202 mm
  • Scan up to 4 “645” frames, 3 “6x6”, 2 “6x7” or 2 “6x9” frames at once
  • 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
• Suspends film in the film holding channel at the same approximate height as the factory Epson^®  holder
• Allows you to scan panoramic images made on 120/220 film
• Holds film in the scanner transparency adapter’s “sweet spot” for better performance
• No annoying dust or fibers like often produced by ragboard and cardboard based holders
• No magnetic materials used in its construction (for those who actually believe magnetic materials could potentially affect a scanner’s performance)
• Accepts 120 and 220 films that meet the ANSI width standards
• Durable construction that is professionally computer cut using highly accurate laser technology
  • Solid construction – heavy 3.5 mm+ total thickness
  • Handsome matte finish on upper side
• Pays for itself quickly by allowing you to be more efficient with your time (think about that pile of negatives you have waiting to be scanned!)
• Low cost for a great design –  only $64.95 (now includes the ANR Insert)!
