Scanning 126 on minolta scan dual III

[voets]

<p>Does anyone know if there are filholders available for 126 film (instamatic), for a Minolta Scan Dual III scanner?<br>

I have a bunch of these negatives I like to digitize, but they won't fit in the 35mm holder</p>

<p>I doubt it. The scanner is out of production. I think you will have problems just finding replacement 35mm film or slide holders.</p>

<p>If it's not a large quantity, and you're ok with cutting up the strips, I'd say look at Gepe slide mounts (or other brand). They have a 2"x2" slides with a large variety of opening sizes, likely including what you need. And then scan with the slide holder, assuming you've got that. I would avoid their glass mounts, they will likely cause Newton Rings, reduce contrast, introduce more dust, etc.</p>

<p>I'll do a count of the number of negatives tomorrow, if there are not too many of them maybe some commercial scanning company will be an option. I don't like cutting them up, there my dad's shots of us kids before he got a 35mm camera. The other 5000 photo's he made are now all digitized 8-)</p>
