15 frame 120 Film

Postby MicroSF6 » Mon Apr 12, 2004 6:58 am

Hardware: Microtek ArtixScan 120tf

I realize the "Offset" function addresses this somewhat, however it would save much time and steps if SF had a preset for 15 frame 120 film (6x4.5).

My Pentax 645 NII uses larger spaces between frames, giving 15 frames per roll with 120 film (6x4.5). It operates optimally this way.

Is this already a feature that I've missed? If not, any chance of putting it in?

thanks.

Dear MicroSF6,

have you tried to use the job manager. You can save the Job and rescan with the same settings on the next images.

The scanner can only scan up to 4 6x4.5 Images with the filmholder.
I don?t understand what you want with the 15 presets.
Can you explain it to me?

Kind Regards

15 frame 120 Film

Postby MicroSF6 » Fri Apr 16, 2004 3:17 am

My problem is that my 6x4.5cm, 15 frame, camera makes more black space between images than a 16 exposure camera.

(It is simply spreading out 15 frames on the same length of film a 16 exposure camera uses)

A 16 exposure camera creates 3mm of black between frames, which SF and the scanner film-holder expects. But, my film has 9mm of black between frames on the film.

So, frame #1 will scan fine, but frame #2 and #3 are not centered and get cut-off. The higher the scan frame number the more the offset.

I was hoping there was an option for the user to set or choose the space between frames for the scans?

Does this make sense?

We don?t have this feature in SilverFast, but I will think about an implementation.

Fuji GA645W

Hi,

First, I'm not the same MicroSF6 user, but I've the same problem. My Fuji GA645W has larger frame spacing (for 15 frames). So it is not possible to use batch scanning, because the frame offset is not stored in the job manager.

I would like to have a option to set the frame spacing, not just an option for the frame offset. v**s**n has done this feature, but I would like to use SilverFast...

thank a lot...

Martin
