AIUI this is a close relative of the same model Kodak sold for a while as the RFS3600, without any great success. Manf. for them by Pacific Image, as a development of the not-very-nice Primefilm 1800i. Not bad exactly, but mediocre optics, a tendency to banding, cheap build quality plus poor software meant few people bought it despite the low price. Unusually capable of scanning an entire uncut roll of 35mm, but no take-up spool so it just got dumped on the floor.
