Hi all,
There are plenty of scanners designed to scan 35mm slides and film strips. I have also seen a few with the plastic guides to scan 8mm films with them.
Has anyone tried using these to scan individual frames of 9.5mm film? It would obviously need a bit of playing around with plastic guides to make them hold 9.5 film.

Thanks
Andy

You can see an example of a model that accepts 9.5 here : http://www.vision-systems.com/articles/print/volume-16/issue-4/departments/technology-trends/high-speed-scanning-machine-vision-digitizes-vintage-films.html

Thanks Dominique,

Wish I had the money for such a machine.

I was thinking more like this sort of design

There are plenty of different types. Some obviously better than others.

Thanks

You have indeed different systems (and different prices !). Here is another one : http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Kit-de-transfert-externe-analogique-avec-menu-OSD-projecteur-8-S8-et-9-5-mm-/221966040152?hash=item33ae34fc58:g:aQwAAOSw3ydVsNdO I never made any digitalization so I have no idea about the difference in quality between each system.
