Konica Minolta DiMAGE Scan Dual III AF-2840 - Manual (Page 31)

To load a film holder, see pages 20 to 23. Before scanning, the film format and type must be
specified in the main window of the utility software. Film format and type are selected from the
drop-down menus in the top left corner of the main window. If the holder and selected film format
do not match, a warning will be displayed and the scan will not be made.
Two film formats can be selected with this scanner: 35 mm and APS. The APS option is for use
with cassette film with the optional APS adapter
AD-10. If scanning APS film in slide mounts, use
the 35 mm film-format option.
Film type can be selected between color and
black and white, positive and negative film. Film
for prints is negative film. Slide film is positive
film. APS has an additional option: auto-detect.
Auto detect automatically sets the film type
between color and black and white, and positive
and negative.
