When open, as shown in Figure 4.13, film can be placed in the holder by posi­

tioning the desired frame so that it aligns with the holder's open window. Only one

frame of the film strip can be scanned at a time. To scan additional frames, the film

must be moved to the appropriate position in the film strip holder.

Positioning the Film in the Holder

There is one window on the film strip holder, as shown in Figure 4.11. This win­

dow will contain the only portion of the film that will be visible to Coolscan during

scanning operation. Therefore, it is necessary to align the frame you wish to scan within

this window when positioning the film in the holder.

In order to scan every frame, film strips should be limited to six frames in length

because of the length of the holder. No film can extend out of the front of the film strip

holder (the end which is inserted into Coolscan), and no more than two frames can

reside in front of the desired frame for scanning.
