Is the RPS 7200 able to process film rolls of any length?
With the scan software of SilverFast and its function of batch modus it is possible to accomplish an index-scan, pre-scans and the respective fine scans of all images of a film reels up to a length of 40 images. A negative film strip with 7200 dpi and activated ICE (dust and scratches remover) can easily take several hours for digitalizing. In case of film reels there is to consider that they do not have any empty images at the ends, as they have to be cut off the film reel before scanning. The back- and forward buttons on the device serve for the exact positioning of the film. As outside the device, thus before and after the film slide, the film reel just lays around, one has to keep watching the scanning procedure in order to avoid the film roll gets tangled (see also Scanning Film Reels in our test report).
