Micotek Artixscan 1800f Scanner Question about 4x5 holders

[craig_maxwell]

Hi,

 

I was wondering if anyone on this forum is currently using the Microtek Artixscan 1800f

scanner to scan 4x5 size transparencies and negatives. I was hoping that someone out

there would be able to answer a question I have about the 4x5 film holders that come

with this particular scanner. Specifically, when using the supplied 4x5 film holder, how

much of the 4x5 film is "cropped", ie: the holder muct conceal a small amount of each

of the four edges of the film and I was hpoing to determine how much of

the film will essentially be cropped, is it 1/8" or less ?? orperhaps more ?? then how

much.

Thanks, any other comments about this particular scanner which I'm considering would

be helpful.

None of the picture area of the flim is cropped, only some of the clear edge.
