I've been dealing with this little problem ever since I first picked up an LS-20, then upgraded to an LS-4000 w/roll/slide feeders.
Short answer: if you're willing to accept NOT having 100% of scannable area in your final scan, you can easily set the crop area (for slide at least) to within a certain parameter and know that the vast majority of your slides will fit within it and result in no trimming needed. Doing so for negatives though...that's another story on account of slight variations in the inter-frame intervals, especially over a selection of 40 frames or so, it can add up. So I've just become familiar with my post-scan 'crop' tool. :) Dieder ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
