E6 strip lengths

<p>Greetings-<br>

I neglected to have my E6 mounted, so I now have one strip encompassing the entire roll.<br>

What length (i.e number of frames) do I cut my strips for scanning on an Epson 4490 flatbed scanner?<br>

Thanks in advance-<br>

<p>Does the scanner have a holder for strips of film? From looking at the online manual it appears that it takes two strips of 6 frames each. Normally this is used for negatives so you would need to change the settings for positive images. Hope this helps.</p>

<p>Thanks, Mike. Yes it does have one of those flimsy film holders...and I just scanned some negatives that were cut into five frames...which is why I asked before I slice up my film!</p>

<p>It's entirely up to you. With most scanners, the holders will take strips up to 6 frames. That only means you should not cut them into strips of more than 6, otherwise they won't fit.</p>

<p>Thank you, Antonio!</p>
