![]() ![]() ![]() This mod will overcome most of the problems I have been complaining about. this is an easy modification that most people can perform with a minor DIY skill and just a few simple tools. Update 5: How to tweak the MF 120 film holder to improve the user experience and film handling. Do not cover any of the small holes in the holder." Update/note 4: Found that the 4x5" sheet film holder share the same design flaw as the MF film holder, not even the supplied 4x5 IT8 target fits the way I like it to do! However in the Epson manual for the 4x5 film holder I also found this text "Note: You may need to trim the edges of the film so that it sits properly in the film holder without bending or warping. And a link to the part of this page explaining the same thing and the problem it cause! Update/Corrections 3: Epson have now updated the FAQ to include a clarification of how to insert film in to the medium format film holder This is a link to that FAQ. I have also used the wrong word before (calling the chamferd AN insert holders guides) this might have confused some, this is now corrected Update/Corrections 2: Some readers have alerted me about placing the film in the wrong way this is also what Epson asumes and they will send me a revised illustration of how to use the MF film holder. Update: Further investigation of the new film holders have revealed some design flaws in the MF film holder (or maybe is it just a bad sample I will check with Epson). They also have the same kind of improvements but also the same drawback in less batch scan capacity 120 and 4x5" film one vs two strips/frames. Productivity can still be pushed with a 2nd set of film holders (Included with the V850 pro but optional for the V800) and the fact that the new holders is easier to load.Īll other supplied holders the MF 120 film holder (Up to 6x20cm) and the 5x4 inch film holder have the same AN insert. Only drawback that i can find is the 3 vs 4 strip capability, however this is a small issue on a otherwise nice improvement. The strip film holder is also equipped with two extra height adjustments between the strip openings for added support and improved precision. One improvement is the anti newton (AN) inserts that helps to keep the film flat.Ī new design of hinges in the frame that keep the film in place is another step forward and are nicer to operate (Still feels a bit fragile thought). The new holder is way better in most respects. The film strip holder that is delivered with the Epson Perfection v850 Pro is a total different unit than the dinky one that came with it's precursor. ![]()
