So you are dealing with 8 mm wide film. Very hard to scan on any of todays scanners. I doubt that there is any good way to scan a strip. -- CSM1 http://www.carlmcmillan.com -- |

I still use a KM-DSM II, despite its 1998-ish conception, for its MF film holders and masks. Two of the masks have fences for 8mm and 16mm film. I've used the 8mm mask for Minox and for 110 film. The 110 film wasn't worth the fiddling with, but the Minox showed much sharper images. Even 5x7 cropped emlargements are bearable.

Other small cameras of the same caliber do. 8mm x 11mm would not fit on 8mm film because of the sprocket holes. |

I believe you are correct, the 8mm X 11 mm is the frame size so the base would be larger. -- CSM1 http://www.carlmcmillan.com -- |
