Thanks for the heads-up on shipping delays from Focal Point. I'd
better get my order in soon, even though I don't yet own a scanner.
I'm still uncertain, though, what I shoud do:
1) Buy a single sheet of AN glass and use it on top of the film in
the stock holder (I've read on photo.net that the curl of the film is
usually up and that a sheeet on top will flatten it sufficiently)
2) Use the stock holder with 2 sheets of AN glass (can this be done
without modifying the holder? Do I risk getting the holder jammed in
the scanner?)
2) Buy a Nikon glass holder and potentially change the bottom glass
to AN.
Any opinions or advice?
Thanks everyone - this is a very useful thread.
